Venous Ulcers 2nd Edition

Venous Ulcers, 2nd Edition by Cynthia K. Shortell and Jovan N. Markovic is the authoritative, practical guide clinicians turn to for modern management of venous leg ulcers. This revised edition brings the latest evidence-based strategies into clear, usable form — ideal for wound care nurses, vascular specialists, primary care providers, and allied health professionals across the United States and worldwide.

Begin with concise, clinical guidance on assessment and diagnosis, then move into proven treatment pathways: compression therapy, advanced wound dressings, debridement techniques, and indications for surgical and endovenous interventions. The text emphasizes real-world application with step-by-step protocols, clinical photographs, and decision-making algorithms that streamline care in hospitals, outpatient clinics, and home-health settings.

What sets this edition apart is its balance of science and practicality. Updated epidemiology, risk-factor management, and patient-centered strategies help clinicians reduce recurrence and improve healing times. Special sections focus on pain control, comorbidity optimization (diabetes, obesity), and strategies for patient education and adherence — all critical for better long-term outcomes and cost-effective care.

Readable yet rigorous, this book is written by experienced clinicians who translate complex vascular medicine into actionable plans. Whether you’re refining a wound-care program or seeking a comprehensive reference for daily practice, Venous Ulcers, 2nd Edition provides the clarity, clinical tools, and confidence needed to elevate patient care.
