Abstract

This meeting report summarises the proceedings of two symposia held at the World Union of Wound Healing Societies (WUWHS) congress in Florence, Italy (2016). The first symposium focused on the consensus of opinion on the role of dressings in protecting against pressure injury (PI) and provided guidance on how to implement changes in clinical practice in line with evidence-based consensus. The second symposium highlighted the importance of delivering optimal care to at-risk patients throughout their hospital stay.
