🦶 All people with diabetes should receive at least one annual foot exam to assess for protective sensation—yet this essential exam is still underused in post-acute care settings. That’s why we’re highlighting it today.

⚠️ Loss of protective sensation (LOPS) is a major contributor to diabetic foot ulcers and heel pressure injuries across all care environments.

🧪 A simple 10-g monofilament test can quickly and objectively identify peripheral neuropathy—allowing clinicians to:
• 🛑 Offload early
• 👀 Monitor more closely
• 📲 Refer sooner

👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️ Nurses can pair monofilament testing with the Braden Scale to strengthen the Sensory Perception component, improving pressure-injury risk identification.

💡 All medical providers should incorporate sensory testing for individuals with diabetes.
Monofilament testing remains one of the simplest, most cost-effective, and clinically meaningful ways to evaluate for LOPS.
If monofilaments aren’t available, another non-invasive sensory test should be used.

📄 Please review the accompanying PDF for step-by-step instructions and clinical tips to help ensure accurate, meaningful testing.

💎 Pamela’s Pearl #5 – Wound Hygiene / Debridement Series

Step 4: Dress for Healing & Biofilm Control 🩹🧫

Focus: Dressing strategy after cleansing, debridement, and edge refashioning.

⸻

A️⃣ Protect the Biofilm-Free Window (⏱️ 24–72 hours)
   •   Debridement disrupts biofilm — but it reforms fast ⚡
   •   Dressings should extend the biofilm disruption you just achieved
   •   Assume biofilm in all hard-to-heal wounds 🦠

⸻

B️⃣ When High Bioburden Is Suspected, Choose Dressings That Do 3 Things:

1️⃣ Control Moisture / Exudate 💧
Exudate carries proteases, cytokines, and new biofilm seeds — manage it early.

2️⃣ Provide Antimicrobial / Antibiofilm Action 🛡️🧫
Use when there is:
   •   inflammation,
   •   slough recurrence, or
   •   stalled healing 🚫🧬

(Insert product examples/image here)

3️⃣ Support Tissue Growth 🌱🧵
   •   Choose dressings that support moist wound healing — passive dressings that rely on the patient’s physiology
   •   Collagen dressings (sheets, powders) provide ECM support & enhance repair

NOTE:
CAMPs (cellular, acellular, matrix-like products) are active, not passive.
They support tissue via scaffolding, ECM components, and/or cellular signals.
They require provider oversight, unlike most daily-managed dressings that support biofilm control.

⸻

C️⃣ Use a Step-Up / Step-Down Approach 🔄

⬆️ Step-UP:
When bioburden or infection risk is suspected or high → choose antimicrobial / antibiofilm dressings

⬇️ Step-DOWN:
When inflammation decreases & wound edges advance → transition to non-antimicrobial dressings

This approach ensures effective biofilm management without overtreatment ⚖️ 📚 Primary Resources

Pamela Pearls 💎 with Pamela Scarborough,PT,DPT,CWS,FAAWC: Step 3 of the Wound Hygiene & Debridement Series

Step 3: Refashion the Wound Edge ✂️🩹

Focus: Rolled, macerated, or hyperkeratotic wound edges can stall healing. Edge refashioning = essential maintenance debridement to get epithelial migration moving again. 🚀

⸻

Key Points

• Maintenance Debridement 🧼
2024 International Consensus: Edge refashioning removes senescent / rolled (epibole) or non-advancing epithelium so new epithelial cells can migrate.

• Biofilm at the Edges 🦠🔥
Callused & hyperkeratotic rims often harbor biofilm + inflammatory proteases that prolong chronicity.

• Restore Edge Architecture 🔄
Refashioning corrects epibole, re-establishes edge → wound bed continuity, and promotes contraction & bridging.

• Tools & Methods 🛠️
Monofilament pads, curettes, fine scissors, and surfactant-assisted cleansing (e.g., poloxamer).
➡️ Use combined, per Integral Debridement principles.

⸻

Clinical Pearl 🌟

“No clean edge, no epithelial bridge.”
Edge care is not cosmetic — it’s biological activation for wound progression. 🎯
