Abstract

The wound is defined as a rupture in the continuity of the skin, that is, an interruption of the tissue that, depending on its commitment, can affect the skin, mucosa or organs, being necessary to understand, also as an event of ethical and social responsibility among professionals of nursing. Wound care is a dynamic, complex process that requires special attention by the nursing professional, especially when referring to a chronic wound. In this context, it should be taken into account that chronic lesions evolve rapidly, are refractory to different types of treatments and result from predisposing conditions that make normal healing impossible.
