Take Home Messages

New concept of management of
wound treatment should be practised
Contaminated or dirty wound are
always accompanied with mild to
moderate SSI, and may be fatal
Early prevention may avoid unwanted
complication of necrotizing fascitis or
burst abdomen
Management of Opened Abdomen
should be trained on IKABDI
Abdominal Wound care Workshop

Hopefully it will be benefit for :

Patients, Hospitals & All of Us
