BOOK
REVIEW
Science and Practice of Pressure Ulcer Management
Editor: Marco Romanelli
Co-editors: Michael Clark, George Cherry,
Denis Colin and Tom Defloor
Publisher: Springer-Verlag (London) Ltd.,
2006
ISBN: l 85233 839 3 Price: £UK 60,
Euro 92.95
This collection of twenty-two chapters, written by an impressive
range of international key opinion leaders on the topic
of pressure ulcers, fills a muchneeded void in the existing
literature. At long last there is one reliable text that
maps out both the pathophysio1ogy of pressure damage and
the current scientific background to support the practical
management of this condition.
The content is comprehensive and covers all relevant aspects,
ranging from quality of life issues, aetiology and practical
treatment solutions. Both conservative and surgical approaches
are fully explored. The opening chapter sets the scene and,
in a no-nonsense fashion, demands more careful interpretation,
presentation and collection of data related to prevalence
and incidence.
The chapter exploring mechanisms of pressure ulcer development
is excellent. It clearly explains the science of pressure
damage encompassing intrinsic and extrinsic components.
The full complexity of all the contributing factors is described
extensively. This is essential reading for those managing
both patients with pressure damage and those at risk. The
individual style of the various authors gives a personal,
honest and practical flavour to the content, while the rigor
of the science presented is preserved. In the closing pages
the European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel takes the opportunity
to debate the political and legal implications of this major
health problem. The importance of this text cannot be overstated.
The devastating impact of pressure ulcers on patients, carers,
and health economies has been ignored for too long. The
availability of this reliable and comprehensive textbook
offers great potential to improve outcomes.
