Would you compress this leg? đź‘€

Buerger’s test is a simple bedside assessment used to screen for arterial insufficiency in the lower limb.

🔍 Key point:
Pallor on elevation is clinically significant — even if dependent rubor is absent.

This scenario is not a classic positive Buerger’s test, but it is still abnormal and should raise concern for arterial compromise.

⚠️ Before initiating compression therapy, ensure a full lower limb vascular assessment is completed (e.g. ABPI/TBPI where clinically indicated).

đź§  Clinical takeaway:
If you see pallor on elevation → think arterial until proven otherwise.

Always learning. Always improving.

There’s one thing I firmly believe in as a clinician—
👉 you can’t deliver high-quality care without ongoing education.

Wound care is constantly evolving. New evidence, new technologies, and deeper understanding mean we have a responsibility to keep up—because our patients deserve the best.

Over the past few days, I’ve been immersed in advanced learning, and I’m proud to have recently completed my International Certificate of Dermoscopy 🔬

This isn’t just about skin checks—it’s about:
✔️ Earlier detection of skin cancers
✔️ Better differentiation of lesions in complex wounds
✔️ More confident clinical decision-making
✔️ Improving patient outcomes

For me, upskilling isn’t optional—it’s essential.

Whether it’s wound assessment, infection management, or recognising something more sinister…
👉 staying current directly impacts the care we provide every single day.

Grateful to continue growing in this space and bringing that knowledge back to my patients and community đź’š

Have you come across any unavoidable pressure injuries?

Would you debride this stable heel eschar?

Black tissue does not automatically mean “remove it”.

If the eschar is dry, firm and intact — with no erythema, fluctuance or drainage — it may be acting as the body’s natural biological cover.

The key question is not colour.
The key question is perfusion.

Debriding poorly perfused tissue can expose underlying structures and increase infection risk.

Clinical reasoning always comes before routine habit.

Save this for your next pressure injury assessment.

What clinical findings would make you change your decision? 👇

If perfusion is critically impaired, no dressing will fix the problem.

Lower limb wounds that are not healing should always trigger one question first:

Is the blood supply adequate?

🚨 Rest pain
🚨 Pallor on elevation
🚨 Dependent rubor
🚨 Non-healing ulcer with dry black eschar
🚨 ABPI < 0.5
🚨 Toe pressure < 30 mmHg
🚨 Sudden neurovascular change

These are not “review next week” findings.
They are urgent vascular red flags.

Compression without adequate arterial supply can cause harm.

Assess perfusion.
Escalate early.
Time is tissue.

Save this for your next lower limb assessment.

⚠️Recall – Comvita MediHoney Antibacterial Wound Gel 25g & 50g⚠️

Comvita Australia Pty Ltd is recalling certain batches of Comvita MediHoney Antibacterial Wound Gel due to problems with the packaging.

• Comvita Medihoney Antibacterial Wound Gel 25g
• Comvita Medihoney Antibacterial Wound Gel 50g

The packaging may not be sealed properly, which can make the product non-sterile or cause it to leak. Identified problems include an incompletely sealed foil liner and a folded tube seal that can leave a small gap.

If the packaging of a sterile product is damaged or inadequate, there may be a risk of product contamination and subsequent infection if the product is used on an open wound. It could also lead to delays in treatment if the product cannot be used as intended.

If you have purchased one of the affected batches of the product, do not use it.

Contact Comvita at hello@comvita.com or on 1800 466 392 to arrange a credit and be advised on returns and disposal of stock.

Visit our website for the list of affected batch numbers and expiry dates: https://www.tga.gov.au/safety/recalls-and-other-market-actions/market-actions/comvita-medihoney-antibacterial-wound-gel-25g-50g
