Abstract

One of the factors that affect wound healing is maceration which can increase wound healing time. However, the results of observations revealed that many maceration wounds were treated with a washing process and an inappropriate selection of dressings. This community service was carried out by transferring knowledge and skills to wound specialist nurses to detect early maceration using flir one smartphone thermography. Based on the results of the evaluation, the nurse can explain the definition and signs of maceration and can demonstrate using a maceration detection tool in the wound with appropriate and correct steps.
