二級壓瘡涉及表皮與真皮層受損。生理食鹽水清潔是標準護理,減少感染風險。按摩周邊會導致深層組織損傷(剪力),應避免;加熱墊容易造成燙傷;保持傷口濕潤癒合(moist wound healing)優於乾燥結痂,故不建議開放傷口乾燥。
A stage 2 pressure ulcer involves damage to the epidermis and dermis. Cleansing with normal saline is the standard of care and reduces infection risk. Massaging the surrounding skin can cause deep tissue injury (shear) and should be avoided; heating pads can cause burns; moist wound healing is preferred over dry eschar formation, so leaving the wound open to air to dry is not recommended.
✦ 台美臨床差異
美國護理師常受傷口造口護理師(WOCN)指導,台灣則多由臨床護理師依醫師醫囑換藥,但評估技巧需進一步精進。
