A video summary of the Standardized Pressure Injury Prevention Protocol Checklist 2.0. Over 2.5 million patients annually are affected by pressure injuries in the U.S., resulting in longer hospital stays, higher readmission rates, and increased medical costs. The purpose of this article is to describe the content validity testing of the original Standardized Pressure Injury Prevention Protocol and revision to a more user-friendly checklist format.

This training program will provide an overview on the role of nutrition in wound healing and management. Healthcare professionals will learn about the essential nutrients that support tissue repair, immune function, and overall recovery, as well as practical strategies for integrating nutritional support into patient care.
This American Society on Aging blog highlights the importance of good nutrition for effective surgery preparation and recovery. It also discusses new research on the value of including nutrition as part of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols to improve patient outcomes.
Wounds or wound-related infections affect nearly 15% of older adults, making effective treatment of chronic wounds an important aspect of healthy aging. A recent study, soon to be published in the International Wound Journal, assessed the impact of a specialized nutrition product on the wound healing of patients staying in a rehabilitation hospital for 2 or more weeks. The study tested the specialized nutrition product’s effect on a variety of wounds, including pressure injuries and surgical wounds.
Although often overlooked, nutrition is a key factor in wound healing. The presence of a wound increases a person’s need for calories, protein, water, and other nutrients, including specific vitamins and minerals. A failure for wounds to heal in a timely way can lead to the development of chronic wounds, which are common in older adults particularly due to multiple comorbidities. This article, published in The Journal on Active Aging, discusses specialized nutrition considerations that help treat chronic wounds and support active aging.
