When wounds do not heal: a case study.

Abstract

The maintenance of skin integrity is a potentially challenging problem for critical care nurses. A multidisciplinary approach with creative thinking often is required. This article presents a case study illustrating the nursing interventions used in managing a patient's multisystem disorder that had been complicated by poor skin integrity. Nursing approaches to the psychosocial issues encountered by the patient, family, and health care professionals are also described.
