This report concerns an 89-year-old female patient referred to us with an infected decubitus ulcer. |
Study of Sanyrène® effectiveness after topical application on TCPO2 of the sacrum area on patients suffering from risk of decubitus ulcer. |
It was therefore decided to admit the patient for surgical management of the decubitus ulcer. |
The operation was performed with the patient under general anesthesia and in the lateral decubitus position with a thigh tourniquet. |
The decubitus ulcer was now free of necrosis and infection and granulation commenced. |
