Dr. Lee Ruotsi and Dr. Charles Parks walk through a complex case of a dressing-related pressure injury, treatment strategy, and healing outcome.
Pressure injuries caused by improperly managed dressings can lead to severe complications, especially in high-risk patients.
In this episode of The Pressure Effect, Dr. Lee Ruotsi is joined by Dr. Charles Parks, DPM, Chief of Podiatry at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital. This conversation is part of our Season 5 series focused on pressure injury closure with the use of cellular and tissue-based products.
Dr. Parks shares his clinical decision-making, from debridement and wound bed prep to the use of a CTP and post-operative care strategies. They also dig into the patient’s complex medical profile, how adherence influenced outcomes, and the layered realities of wound care in a trauma hospital setting.
