Description
Numerous factors affect the healing process including chronic diseases and various patient centered complicating factors. When a wound, regardless of etiology, fails to follow the normal healing process the clinician needs to assess for intrinsic and complicating factors. Understanding how these factors affect the healing process is important in order to correct or control these complicating factors. This lecture will identify some of the most common factors that will affect the patient and their wound healing journey including how chronic diseases, medications, and psychosocial factors affect the patient and their wound.
