The aim of this book is to give an insight about modern concepts of wound care and an up to date account of wound management. Every medical student, junior doctor, nurse practitioner, wound care specialist at various level of medical education need to know the fundamentals of wound care. I believe that This will be a very useful book to be kept in all wound care departments. I have provided essential information, without over burdening the medical student and all wound care practitioners. Hopefully based on the information in this book, healthcare facilities countrywide can have a unified and consistent approach to wound care and conduct and disseminate local research, for all healthcare practitioners to follow.It is of paramount importance that we do not cause harm to the healing wound and to the peri-wound skin by our treatment. It is also vital that we have a holistic approach to wound management by paying attention to the patient’s overall condition and his or her social background.I hope we can update this book from time to time with the help of my colleagues in the field to keep up with modern research and developments. The readers are requested to send suggestions for improvement of the book which will be incorporated in future prints. Please communicate any comments, shortcomings etc. to me at athulawithanage@hotmail.co.ukI would like to thank Dr. Nelun de Silva, Consultant Microbiologist at Colombo East Teaching Hospital for editing the book. I am grateful to Dr. Chaminda Kumara and Dr. Sahani Croos for collecting data and photographs from our practice at CETH. Finally I like to thank my wife Nelum for typing the book.Athula Withanage MD.FRCS.
