Abstract
Decubitus ulcers are a widespread healthcare problem, especially among hospitalized patients who receive long-term time treatment. A multidisciplinary approach is required to provide appropriate treatment. The patient's general health status and cooperation define the treatment methods. Decubitus ulcers of the scapular region are not a common entity. This paper aimed to present a case with the successful treatment of decubitus ulcer stage IV with diagnosed Staphylococcus aureus deep wound infection in a patient who followed up by home health care service. Our multidisciplinary approach includes cleaning, debridement and dressing of the wound, optimized dressings, anti-biotherapy, the role of reconstructive surgery, and improvement of nutritional conditions and chronic health problems. Keywords: decubitus ulcer, pressure ulcer, geographic locations
