1 CWHHE OOHS Wound Care Management Formulary November 206 v. INTRODUCTION The CWHHE primary care wound care formulary has been developed by the CWHHE Out of Hospitals Services (OOHS) wound care reference group. It aims to support staff with clinical decision making on wound care products and supports practices with medicines optimisation, whilst encouraging a standardised approach to wound care management across CWHHE. Read all product literature and manufacturers guidelines prior to use. The most common wounds encountered and managed in general practice are uncomplicated in nature, such as post-operative wounds, re-dressing or packing of wounds, and dressings from traumatic lesions or burns. Patients may also present with more complicated wounds that require an onward referral to specialist services with general practice managing wound care, until specialist input can be received. For the purpose of this document, the formulary should be used in conjunction with the Out of Hospital Services wound care specification. In cases where patients are referred to specialist services i.e Tissue Viability Nursing, there may be occasions where specialist dressings outside the formulary are clinically recommended. In such cases, the prescribing clinician should use their discretion and own judgment, with advice from the relevant specialist service who will follow their wound care management product formulary. AIMS The formulary is underpinned by NICE (206) evidence summaries on wound care and focuses on the key priorities; To prescribe the least costly wound dressings that meet the required clinical performance characteristics and evidence base To prescribe the minimum quantity of dressings sufficient to meet people's needs and avoid unnecessary waste To avoid routine prescribing of antimicrobial (for example, silver, iodine or honey) dressings ahead of non-medicated dressings. Practices should ensure a small stock of dressings are available for the first appointment. Patients should then be prescribed dressings on an FP0. Consider the duration of prescription required and prescribe ONLY the number of individual dressings required and not pack size (e.g. 6 x dressings). It is recommended that no more than 2 weeks supply is prescribed as the personalised wound care management plan may change. Pack sizes have been included for information. First and second line choices are highlighted as: FIRST CHOICE SECOND CHOICE
