| مستخلص: | General Purpose: To provide information about a study exploring patient and caregiver perceptions of home wound care for patients with simple acute wounds in Singapore. Target Audience: This continuing education activity is intended for physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and nurses with an interest in skin and wound care. Learning Objectives/outcomes: After completing this continuing education activity, you should be able to:1. Assess benefits and barriers to home wound care management.2. Analyze the methodology, results, and implications of the study. Abstract: To control healthcare expenditure, patients with simple, acute, low-risk wounds are encouraged to perform self-wound care at home. However, patient perception of this care is not known. Objective: To explore patient and caregiver perceptions of home wound care for patients with simple acute wounds in the primary healthcare sector in Singapore. Methods: This study used the constructivist grounded theory approach. Nine participants from 2 polyclinics were interviewed. In vivo codes were extracted, and the constant comparative technique was applied throughout the analytical process. Results: Fear, lack of knowledge, and the difficulty in performing care resulted in many patients avoiding self-wound care. Age, educational level, and cost did not have much impact. Participants with some first aid knowledge and those who appreciated the flexibility of self-wound care were more likely to embrace this concept. Participants also suggested that telecommunications and mobile nurses could assist in this concept. Conclusions: Generally, patients are willing to accept this self-wound care concept. To ensure successful implementation, nurses should encourage eligible patients to attend educational programs to prepare them to perform wound care at home. |
