Geriatric Nursing, 1997
With more than 2000 wound care products on the market, choosing an appropriate dressing for the geriatric patient can prove to be a difficult task. Age-related changes in skin structure and decreased resistance to noxious stimuli in the environment place the elderly patient at higher risk for wound complications.

Nursing Management (Springhouse), 1996
Significant advances in wound healing technologies dramatically enhance the health provider's ability to achieve optimal wound healing. Maximal success in treating both pressure and skin ulcers, however, remains with the fundamental principles of moist wound healing, pressure relief, local and systemic infection control and adequate nutrition.

The American Journal of Surgery, 1994
Abdominal incisions typically are covered with conventional gauze or not dressed at all, since it is commonly believed that dressings do not influence the healing process. Also, patient personal hygiene is not facilitated when gauze type dressings are used, and frequent changes are time consuming and sometimes painful. Following creation of an adjacent
