Kim Saunders Hands-On Clinical Lab

This clinical lab will present best practices for arterial, venous and neuropathic pain ulcers. It will also offer hands-On clinical labs for leg assessments, wound treatment, and ankle-Monofilament testing, brachial index and other tests-loading neuropathic ulcer techniques.

Kim Saunders – Hands-On Clinical Lab

If the etiology of lower extremity wounds is not known, it can be difficult to diagnose and treat. Therefore, the clinician will need to be available at bedside.-Non-invasive diagnostic tools that can screen for perfusion and diagnose sensory neuropathy. Learn how to off-Even in rural areas, you can load a diabetic neuropathy ulcer.

This clinical lab will present best practices for arterial, venous and neuropathic pain ulcers. It will also offer hands-On clinical labs for leg assessments, wound treatment, and ankle-Monofilament testing, brachial index and other tests-loading neuropathic ulcer techniques.

OBJECTIVES

1. When vascular ulcers have not been treated, analyze your treatment goals-reconstructable
2. Use the ABI at the bedside to assess the arterial flow in any setting.
3. Analyze the arterial diagnostic work-Refer to us for more information
4. When vascular ulcers have not been treated, analyze your treatment goals-reconstructable
5. Differentiate between lipedema, lymphedema and venous insufficiency.
6. Differentiate assessment/treatment for stasis dermatitis, atrophie blanche, Lipodermatosclerosis
7. Complementary compression for ankle-Brachial index
8. Perfusion is possible with justify wound treatment
9. Contrast diabetic ulcer classification systems to predict time to heal & referrals recommended
10. Contrast neuropathy foot-Loading options
