Review

Caring for patients with chronic wounds is challenging because the causes of the injuries can be complex. This new edition has up-to-date coverage of stage 1 pressure ulcers, pressure ulcer monitoring, and the Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing (PUSH). While the illustrations may not make this book suitable lunchtime reading, it's an excellent choice for anyone preparing for the certification exam given by the American Academy of Wound Management. --Carolyn Lewis
