EWMA webinar series: The science and practice of skin tears

EWMA resources on Skin Tears

Since the inception of the International Skin Tear Advisory Panel (ISTAP) in 2011 there is an emerging body of evidence to support the prevention, assessment and management of skin tears.  Early recognition of people who are at risk of developing skin tears is an essential part of prevention and is vital to minimising incidence of avoidable skin tears. In light of this, ISTAP and EWMA seeks to increase awareness about skin tear prevention through this joint effort.
 

The two webinars are part of the resources developed in the EWMA-ISTAP Skin Tears prevention campaign. Read more about the project and addtional resources here
