Foam dressings proven to prevent costly pressure injuries
Hospital-acquired conditions are a significant issue, affecting 1 in 10 hospitalized adults in the U.S.
Specifically, pressure injuries acquired in the hospital come at a considerable cost to patient health and hospital financial performance, adding $21,767 per patient.
Left unchecked, pressure injuries can lead to severe health complications and increase the overall cost of care in the U.S. by as much as $11 billion annually. Treatments not only prolong hospital stays but also contribute significantly to patient discomfort and potential fatalities.
This whitepaper reveals how foam dressings can help mitigate these challenges by offering a preventative shield against pressure injuries and preserving hospital resources.
