About the event
NSWOCC & WOC Institute Continuing Education Webinar: “Offloading DFUs: The Clinical Benefits of Early Intervention Using a Total Contact Cast System”
Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) remain one of the main complications associated with diabetes and patients do not always understand the seriousness of their condition. Without proper treatment, DFUs can become infected which may lead to serious complications from hospitalization to amputation, the latter being linked to a high mortality rate.
Please join Dr. Jeffrey Jensen for an in-depth presentation on current DFU statistics, the benefits of early intervention and the implementation of a prefabricated, easy-to-use Total Contact Cast (TCC) System that supports patient offloading compliance in a busy wound care practice. Dr. Jensen will also discuss how to effectively communicate the importance of seeking prompt medical attention when a patient is diagnosed with a DFU and how to manage patient expectations.
