Using the venous leg ulcer aetiology-specific T.I.M.E. clinical decision support tool to promote consistent holistic wound management and eliminate variation in practice.

| Sumario: | The T.I.M.E. clinical decision support tool (CDST; Moore et al, 2019; World Union of Wound Healing Societies, 2020) is based on the well-established T.I.M.E. wound bed preparation framework (Schultz et al, 2003). The tool has been further developed to help support clinicians to assess different wound types - namely venous leg ulcers (VLUs), pressure ulcers/injuries, diabetic foot ulcers and dehisced surgical wounds. In this article, a team of non-wound care specialist staff (homecare and nursing home nurses) used the VLU aetiology-specific T.I.M.E. CDST to help guide wound bed preparation, dressing selection and ongoing management of four patients with VLUs in a homecare setting in The Netherlands. |
