Dear List,
I have a patient who was burned 5 months ago. She had 3rd degree burns.
She has just been prescibed a compression garment. She does not want it if
it is not going to be of some benefit at this point in time. I have not
worked with enough burn patients to answer that. Can anyone help me. When
is it too late for compression garments to be worth the cost and hassle.
What mnfr's are recommended?
Thank you in advance for your help. Teri Powers-Watts, CPO, CPed
