We’ll kick off the conference with the popular Buzz Report which will cover everything that is new since our last WOW—bringing you up to speed on the latest and greatest in new products, research and information that the wound care community needs to know.

All attendees will learn what’s hot in nutrition issues in wound healing from Nancy Collins, a well-known expert on this topic. And Kathleen Schaum, a national expert on health care reimbursement, will share what we need to do to prepare for the on-going healthcare reform that will impact all healthcare providers and consumers.

Back by popular demand are the hands-on workshops including sharp debridement, measuring ABIs, applying compression, maggot debridement and more!

New this year, a special 2-hour presentation of a mock trial by Cindy Broadus and Julia Melendez to keep us all one step ahead of the game with the legalities in providing wound care.

Participants will enjoy a humorous session and leave with a clear understanding of ostomy surgery.

200 venous disease: Quit Wimping out and get them Better for gosh sake Michael Miller DO, FACOS, FAPWCA, WCC. CEO Medical Director, Miller Care Group, Indianapolis, IN Real treatment of venous disease in patients has suffered from a lack of understanding of how the venous system works on the micro/macroscopic aspects. Paranoia about arterial disease, patient tolerance of compression and fear of causing harm have resulted in dramatic “dumbing down” of how best to treat venous patients. This lecture will review currently available methods to treat venous disease as well as compare and contrast the what’s, why’s and when’s of providing an appropriate diagnosis. We’ll look at cost ineffective and potentially detrimental treatments and diagnostics used and we’ll offer considerations for developing a “real” plan of care. If you are truly an expert in treating venous disease, then this lecture is designed to make you question whether your patients are better because of what you do or in spite of what you do.

300 HoW to: Hands on: aBi Made easy Cindy Broadus RN, BSHA, LNHA, CLNC, CLNI, CHCRM, WCC, DWC, OMS, Executive Director, National Alliance of Wound Care and Ostomy It’s surprising how many clinicians have never heard of an ABI, let alone perform one. For what is a quick and easy diagnostic test to perform, it should be second nature for most of us. If you want to know more and do more on this simple test, then join us for this hour-long hands-on session in which we will show you the ease with which an ABI can be performed and the valuable information that it will provide to the clinician. We will briefly discuss the reasons for obtaining an ABI, understanding the results, and finally how to perform an ABI. Then you’ll take that knowledge and actually practice what you have learned by performing an ABI on each other. (This is a repeat of session 303)

400 skin of color - dermatological assessment Nancy Morgan RN, BSN, MBA, WOC, WCC, CWCMS, DWC, OMS, Co-Founder of WCEI Assessment and quantification of skin color is important to health care as color is one indicator of overall health. The ability to note changes in skin color can mean life or death. Professionals need to understand the skin’s mechanism as it relates to ethnic differences, as well as unique skin- related challenges. This session will review structural, physiological, functional and cultural differences in skin of color, assessment techniques, common skin conditions and cutaneous complications.

• 3:30–4:30p.m.(Concurrent Sessions) 102 the ins and outs of Mds section M Michael Britton RN, NHA, WCC, DWC, Consult US, Montgomery, AL Section M of the MDS requires knowledge of wound care causes, treatments, and preventions. Lack of understanding the inappropriate coding could affect the facility’s payment as well as quality measures. In this presentation, we will take an in-depth look at Section M and how the Wound Care Clinician can effectively utilize it.

Because of the overwhelming response to last year’s session and the request to increase the number of attendees that can sign up, we have brought this popular hands-on session back.

303 HoW to: Hands on: aBi Made easy Cindy Broadus RN, BSHA, LNHA, CLNC, CLNI, CHCRM, WCC, DWC, OMS, Executive Director, National Alliance of Wound Care and Ostomy It’s surprising how many clinicians have never heard of an ABI, let alone perform one. For what is a quick and easy diagnostic test to perform, it should be second nature for most of us. If you want to know more and do more on this simple test, then join us for this hour-long hands-on session in which we will show you the ease with which an ABI can be performed and the valuable information that it will provide to the clinician. We will briefly discuss the reasons for obtaining an ABI, understanding the results, and finally how to perform an ABI. Then you’ll take that knowledge and actually practice what you have learned by performing an ABI on each other. (This is a repeat of Session 300)

Friday September 19, 2014 (cont’d)• 9:45a.m.–10:45a.m.(Concurrent Sessions) 402 Palliative Wound care Gail Hebert RN, BSN, MS, CWCN, WCC, DWC, OMS, WCEI Instructor This session will discuss the goals of Palliative Wound Management. Our approach to wound care is less aggressive, and we encounter many challenges. We’ll discuss those challenges, which include: wound odor, excessive bleeding, exudate, necrotic tissue, pain, peri- wound breakdown, itching, and body image and caregiver skills. We’ll learn about some of the wounds encountered in palliative care such as Kennedy Terminal Ulcer, Marjolin, Kaposi Sarcoma, fungating wounds, pressure ulcers, and fistulas. The session will provide you with knowledge on topical products and interventions you can utilize for palliative wound management. • 11:00a.m.–12:00p.m.(Concurrent Sessions) 106 Finding common ground...Your guide to surviving Wound care communication challenges Jennifer Oakley RN, WCC, CWCA, DWC, OMS, WCEI Instructor Have you ever been faced with dealing with that inappropriate order from your prescribing clinician? Or any other communication challenges? Whatever your challenge may be, the common thread that often unravels and separates us from getting what we need is a lack of communication. In this session you will learn effective communication techniques that will enable you to effectively deal with the day-to-day challenges you face as a wound care clinician.

204 Break the cycle. Heal the Wound. James Wilcox BSN, ACHRN, CWCN, CFCN, CWS, WCC, Director of Research & Quality – Healogics, Inc. Jacksonville, FL This interactive lecture will review the basic characteristics of an acute and chronic wound and describe the healing cascade for each. Participants will learn in the simplest of explanations how a wound is transformed from acute to chronic and how this process can occur during any phase of healing. But that is not all, the reviews will be followed by a basic treatment strategy that allows for the successful treatment of chronic wounds by breaking the inflammation cycle quickly, thereby forcing the wound back into the acute wound cycle and towards closure. To reinforce what you have learned, we’ll discuss a few case samples and show you just how simple this process is.

304 HoW to: Hands on: compression Made easy Cindy Broadus RN, BSHA, LNHA, CLNC, CLNI, CHCRM, WCC, DWC, OMS, Executive Director, National Alliance of Wound Care and Ostomy Michael Miller DO, FACOS, FAPWCA, WCC. CEO Medical Director, Miller Care Group, Indianapolis, IN We’re back…. Because of the overwhelming response to last year’s session and the request to increase the number of attendees that can sign up, we have brought this popular hands on session back. With venous disease affecting over 15% of the population it is imperative that clinicians understand how to properly apply compression therapy. This session is a one-hour hands on lab practicum in which you will practice your wrapping skills on each other. You’ll learn the spiral and figure eight techniques and then use those skills to apply a multi-layered system. This session is predominantly hands on with minimal didactic, therefore, attending session 200 will be helpful. (This is a repeat of Session 301)

Friday September 19, 2014 (cont’d)• 3:30–4:30p.m.(Concurrent Sessions) 206 nPWt : so You think You’re an expert Michael Miller DO, FACOS, FAPWCA, WCC. CEO Medical Director, Miller Care Group, Indianapolis, IN Negative Pressure Wound Therapy has been one of the most misunderstood and capriciously used wound care modalities available. There is a general lack of understanding of the basic laws of physics that govern how it works, why it works, its effects on tissues, cells and how to maximize its use. It has inappropriately achieved a panacea status resulting in cost ineffective care. The vast majority of users are unable to explain the science/logic behind different settings of pressures, periodicity and timing resulting in homogenization of treatment across a wide variety of conditions. This lecture will challenge even the most experienced user to consider other alternatives in all aspects of the use of NPWT and to recognize that the “one size fits all” mentality is in fact, cost ineffective.

405 debridement Made easy Scott Batie M.ED, MPT, WCC, DWC, OMS, WCEI Instructor, Scott Bate Consulting, Ontario, CA An essential step in wound healing is the debridement of non-viable and or infected tissue from the wound bed. There are times when debridement is not recommended and times when a variety of options should be considered. This made-easy session will assist clinicians in understanding the debridement process and recognizing which technique is the most appropriate for the individual patient characteristics. 702 Hands on: use of collagenase santYl® ointment in Wound Bed Preparation (No CME’s/CE’s) Amy Bruggeman NP, MS, APRN-BC This program will review wound bed preparation and the role of debridement, analyze evidence-based medicine in the treatment of chronic wounds, and summarize the benefits of Collagenase SANTYL® Ointment in chronic wound debridement.
