Abstract

Background: Pressure injury (PI) can occur as a result of prolonged bed rest in immobilized patients. The healing process is often slow if the wounds are not managed comprehensively, particularly in elderly patients or patients with neurological disorder, diabetes mellitus, and malnutrition. Proper treatment can improve the healing process. Case illustration: A 66-year-old female with multiple comorbidities presented with PI on the left lower back, as well as the sacral and right gluteal regions. She was diagnosed with grade 3 and unstageable PI, and was treated using a multidisciplinary approach. Her wounds were treated with a combination of hydrogels and polyurethane foam dressings. Discussion: Managing comorbidities, optimizing local wound care, regular repositioning in special mattress, and improving nutritional status are necessary to accelerate healing in cases of PI. There was an increase in the wound granulation and epithelialization, as well as a decrease in the ulcer size and exudates after 16 weeks of treatment. A considerable amount of time is needed to treat grade 3 and unstageable PI in an immobile elderly patient with multiple comorbidities. Conclusion: Multidisciplinary collaboration among healthcare workers is essential for the treatment of PI in elderly populations.

Abstract

Tingginya insiden keganasan kulit yang ditemukan pada stadium lanjut membutuhkan kemampuan lebih baik untuk mengenali tanda dan gejala awal. Pengenalan dini gejala klinis kanker kulit berpigmen, terutama melanoma maligna, dapat dengan pemeriksaan lesi menggunakan kriteria ABCDE. Kriteria ini sederhana dan mudah digunakan, baik oleh tenaga medis maupun masyarakat awam. Makin banyak kriteria ABCDE yang terpenuhi, makin tinggi kemungkinan suatu lesi adalah kanker kulit. High incidence of skin malignancy found in advanced stages calls for a better clinical judgment to detect early signs and symptoms. Screening for early clinical findings of pigmented skin cancer, especially malignant melanoma, can use ABCDE criteria. The criteria are simple and easy to apply, either by medical professionals or general public. The more ABCDE criteria were met, the higher chance that a lesion is a skin cancer.
