Summary

This document addresses the challenge of long-term, hard-to-heal wounds - those that do not close after care for up to a year or more.

Key points:Hard-to-heal wounds affect the patient’s quality of life, as well as being a burden on the health-care system.

Incidence of hard-to-heal wounds is rising as the age of the population increases.

Patient-related factors that influence outcomes include comorbidities, severity of the underlying condition and adherence.

Correct treatment at an early stage could prevent many hard-to-heal wounds.

Provider-related factors include awareness of treatment options available, the influence of external wound-healing inhibitors such as biofilm and availability of products.
