Wound care

Chronic and non-healing wound care in St. Louis and Metro East, Illinois.

A wound that is not improving deserves a fresh review of the diagnosis, blood flow, pressure, infection risk, swelling, nutrition, medications and daily treatment—not simply more time on the same plan.

Why a wound may have stopped improving

  • How long the wound has been present and prior treatments
  • Change in size, tissue, drainage and pain
  • Circulation, pressure, swelling and infection risk
  • Medical conditions and ability to follow the plan
Other clinicians may be involved.

Primary care, podiatry, vascular surgery, infectious disease, surgery, dermatology or oncology may be involved depending on the cause.

Where care happens

A new review when a wound has stalled

Gateway may evaluate a chronic wound in a home or care facility and review whether diagnosis, pressure, circulation, swelling or daily treatment needs to be reconsidered.

Share how long the wound has been present, what has already been tried, the location and the best clinical contact.
