Wound Measurement

Wound measurement guides offer precision

Due to their streamlined nature, bullseye markers provide accurate readings at a glance. With wound care, it’s important to quickly make a diagnosis and implement a plan of action. A wound measurement tool can help medical professionals assess the severity of a wound before making a decision. Wound guides are simple to read, which lightens the work load for the medical leads in the office. If multiple patients require a diagnosis, other members of staff can set up the bullseye markers and report their findings back to the lead.

The wound measurement tool is easy to apply

The wound measurement ruler fits in areas that other measuring tools might not reach. As with lightweight alcohol pads, wound markers can adjust to a patient’s situation as needed. Since the wound measurement device is transparent with prominent labels, it doesn’t require extensive training to use. The top of each sheet includes concise instructions though as a precautionary measure. Each sheet is latex-free, ensuring they’re suitable for use on most patients. Once the guide is applied, the practitioner can take the measurements and then remove the guide and dispose of it before moving on to the next patient.

Wound care supplies are useful internationally

There are several factors that help wound guides work well in foreign environments where English is not the first language, they:

• Include both imperial and metric measurements
• Place a heavy emphasis on visuals over text
• Are easy to apply and remove

For non-medical professionals, this added accessibility ensures effective use of each wound marker. Families interested in stocking up on health care supplies should look for items that are intuitive or easy to learn. Similarly, wound care products should have thorough instructions to ensure they’re used appropriately. Since wound guides prominently feature a bullseye, non-medical professionals can quickly understand their function. While bullseye markers are especially useful for small medical practices where time is valuable, they’re also useful in other environments where first aid is a reasonable concern.
