Wound Care Diagnosis

With the right wound care diagnosis and treatment pIan, using the latest technology and professional care, hard to heal wounds can be healed. If you or your loved ones are suffering from a hard to heal wound, come in for an assessment and a customised treatment plan. We will visualize the bacteria in and around the wound bed and show the changes in bacteria over time. Toe brachial pressure index (TBPI) is a noninvasive way of determining arterial perfusion in feet and toes. We need to have a definitive measurement/diagnosis of Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD)

In Clinic Diagnostics

Oxygenated Haemoglobin
Snapshot is a near-infrared (NIR), reflectance-based technology that measures tissue oxygen saturation (ST02) in superficial tissue. Using multiple wavelengths of NIR light, Snapshot measures relative amounts of oxygenated and deoxygenated haemoglobin in the microcirculation where oxygen exchange is happening. Snapshot provides users with a tissue oxygenation map that can be used in medical decision making, for tracking and trending oxygenation, and for evaluating tissue viability.

Bacteria
Presence of Bacteria – Moleculight will visualize bacteria in and around the wound bed. Image must be taken in a dark environment. A series of image can show the chanage in bacteria over time.
Host Response to Bacteria – Woundchek is a lateral flow testing that will show the presence of active infection. It requires a swab, addition of a solution that will ultimately show a positive and negative signal if protease activity is present.

Wound Measurement
Through the use of Natrox IQ, the patient or home visitting nurse can measure the wound automatically and accurately by using Natrox IQ application on a cell phone. The app will measure the wound and take white light images to be analyzed for wound health.

Patient Questionnaire
Allows the nurse to record patient specific feedback such as pain level, noticable attributes of the wound.

The Next Step

If you or the person you are caring for has a diabetic foot wound or ulcer that is open and is having difficulty healing, you can come in for an assessment.

Types of Foot Ulcers

Diabetic Foot Ulcer

A diabetic foot ulcer is an open sore or wound that occurs commonly located on the bottom of the foot. Of those who develop a foot ulcer, hospitalised can occur due to infection or other ulcer-related complication.This can sometimes lead to amputation of the limb if not treated.

Venous Foot Ulcer

Venous ulcers are caused by increasing pressure in the veins. These typically occur on the lower leg and results in blood pooling. These kind of wounds are very slow to heal, usually because of weak blood circulation in the limb. They can last anywhere from a few weeks to years.

Pressure Ulcer

A pressure ulcer is a localised injury to the skin. It may be caused by limited mobility, poor nutrition, comorbidities, aging skin or friction and moisture.
