Dr. Robert Martinez / March 14, 2026
Introduction to Cellular Therapies in Wound Care

Cellular and tissue-based products (CTPs) have revolutionized the treatment of chronic, non-healing wounds. These advanced therapies provide the scaffolding, growth factors, and cellular components necessary to restart the healing process in wounds that have failed conventional treatment.

This comprehensive guide covers the protocols, indications, and best practices for implementing cellular therapies in your wound care practice.

Documentation Best Practices for Wound Care

Lisa Thompson, RN, CWOCN / March 10, 2026
he Critical Importance of Wound Care Documentation

In wound care, documentation serves multiple essential purposes: guiding clinical decision-making, ensuring continuity of care, supporting reimbursement claims, and providing legal protection. Poor documentation is the leading cause of wound care claim denials and audit findings.

This guide provides a framework for creating comprehensive, audit-proof wound care documentation.

Elements of Complete Wound Documentation

1. Patient Assessment

Every wound care visit should include:

History

  • Wound onset and duration
  • Previous treatments and responses
  • Contributing factors (diabetes, vascular disease, etc.)
  • Pain

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE

To describe an inaugural telewound monitoring service (TMS) designed for the remote monitoring of acute wounds to empower primary care patients, and identify factors associated with the utilization of the TMS.

METHODS

Retrospective data were collected from 204 patients who participated in the TMS between June 19, 2016 and August 31, 2017 and analyzed using both descriptive and multiple regression analysis.

RESULTS

The mean patient age was 27.9 years (SD, 12.4); wound area was 7.8 cm2 (SD, 21.2); and duration of healing was 11.7 days (SD, 6.9). A multiple regression model based on patients’ demographics and wound factors predicted which patients were likely to have more telewound sessions than
