BH WOUND CARE | Case Study 102

An Old Male Patient with Lower Extremity Wounds Treatments at BH Wounds in Sherman Oaks, CA

Results after just 6 Treatments!

64 -Year Old Male Patient with Chronic Lower Extremity Wounds

Introduction

Chronic wounds, particularly those resulting from a history of motor vehicle accidents, can present significant challenges to healthcare providers. This case study explores the successful wound care treatment provided to a 67-year-old male patient who had been suffering from multiple lower extremity wounds for over 35 years. Despite previous unsuccessful attempts with traditional and conventional treatments by podiatrist Dr. Robert Kleiman and various vascular surgeons, the patient’s wounds were effectively managed and ultimately healed with the implementation of BH wound care treatment.

Patient Profile

  • 64-year-old male
  • History of chronic lower extremity wounds
  • Wounds resulted from a motor vehicle accident over 30 years ago
  • Prior treatments by experienced medical professionals were unsuccessful
  • Wounds cause significant pain and discomfort

Objective

The main objective of this case study was to evaluate the effectiveness of BH wound care treatment in reducing wound size, depth, and pain for the 64-year-old male patient with chronic lower extremity wounds. The primary aim was to close the wounds successfully, enhancing the patient’s quality of life and preventing potential complications associated with chronic wounds, such as infections.

Treatment Protocol

The patient was referred to BH Wound Care, a specialized wound care center known for its innovative and advanced wound management techniques. The treatment protocol implemented for this case included a combination of modern wound care methods and advanced therapies designed to promote wound healing.

  1. Comprehensive Assessment: A thorough assessment of the patient’s wounds and medical history was conducted to understand the underlying factors contributing to the chronicity of the wounds.
  2. Debridement: Nonviable tissue in the wounds was removed through debridement to create a clean wound bed, promoting the formation of healthy tissue.
  3. Advanced Dressings: BH Wound Care utilized state-of-the-art dressings, such as hydrogels and foam dressings, to maintain a moist wound environment and support the body’s natural healing processes.
  4. Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT): NPWT was employed to enhance wound closure, reduce wound size, and promote granulation tissue formation.
  5. Compression Therapy: To improve vascular circulation and prevent swelling, compression therapy was applied to the lower extremities.

Results

Over the course of 6 treatments, significant progress was observed in the patient’s chronic lower extremity wounds. The results demonstrated a considerable decrease in wound size, depth, and pain. As a result of the BH wound care treatment, the wounds finally closed successfully, providing the patient with much-needed relief and an improved quality of life.

Conclusion

This case study highlights the efficacy of BH wound care treatment in managing chronic lower extremity wounds for a 64-year-old male patient with a long history of injuries sustained in a motor vehicle accident. Despite previous unsuccessful attempts using traditional and conventional treatments, BH wound care’s innovative approach yielded remarkable results. Through comprehensive wound assessment, debridement, advanced dressings, negative pressure wound therapy, and compression therapy, the patient’s wounds were successfully healed after 10 treatment sessions. BH wound care’s multidisciplinary and advanced wound management approach offers a promising solution for patients with chronic wounds, enhancing their overall well-being and preventing potential complications. Further research and clinical studies may provide additional insights into the long-term effectiveness of BH wound care treatments for various chronic wound cases.
