05 Jan Wound Care Patients Rejoice! SMARTKITS™ Make Compliant At-Home Wound Care Easy

If you or a loved one require a surgical procedure, you may be wondering about at-home wound care once you leave the hospital. Make no mistake, taking care of your wound in a home setting can be stressful. But it’s a vital part of your recovery. 

Non-compliance with wound care probably isn’t something you intend. But it can happen and can have serious consequences. Here is why post-surgical wound care compliance is vital and how SMARTKITS™ can help you get the job done with ease. 

Why post-surgical wound care compliance is critical

Wound care compliance is an essential component in the success of treating post-surgical and chronic wounds at home. But many patients find that wound care is simply too complex and overwhelming. Unfortunately, not following up on at-home wound care can lead to serious consequences like infection and re-hospitalization. 

According to one study, over 11% of surgical procedures studied ended up with a 30-day unplanned hospital readmittance. Of those, wound care complications was one of the leading causes in more than 30% of patients. 

It’s not that patients don’t want to comply with wound care instructions. When patient compliance falls short, it’s often due to several factors:

• Complex or unclear instructions regarding wound care

• Patient anxiety about caring for a wound

• Discomfort with wound care materials that aren’t personalized

In light of the risks associated with non-compliance, a solution to these issues is necessary. Fortunately, FritzFinn offers a solution that can help.
