Abstract
espanolSe presenta el caso clinico de una mujer de 49 anos que fue derivada a la consulta de Atencion Primaria de Enfermeria referente de ulceras, por una herida de siete meses de duracion que no cicatrizaba. La paciente presentaba una ulcera de etiologia venosa en la cara anterior media tibial de la pierna derecha, producida por efecto de una depilacion de vello corporal. Una valoracion integral de la persona, incluida su herida, con un plan de cuidados de Enfermeria individualizado permitio detectar la insuficiencia venosa que padecia la paciente, aplicar el tratamiento adecuado (compresion terapeutica) y continuarlo una vez la ulcera habia cicatrizado. El infradiagnostico y la falta de un correcto tratamiento de este tipo de lesiones repercute negativamente en la calidad de vida de los pacientes, ademas de un aumento en los costes sanitarios y laborales, por lo que es necesaria una adecuada formacion para su prevencion y tratamiento. EnglishWe hereby present the case report of a 49-year-old woman who was referred to the Primary Care Nursing Unit of reference for ulcers, with a 7-month wound that did not heal. The patient presented an ulcer with venous etiology in the tibial anterior medial side of her right leg, caused by body hair removal. A comprehensive assessment of the person, including her wound, with an individualized Nursing Care Plan, allowed to detect the venous insufficiency suffered by the patient, to implement the adequate treatment (therapeutic compression) and to continue said treatment once the ulcer had healed. Underdiagnosis and lack of adequate treatment for this type of lesions will have a negative impact on patients’ quality of life, as well as lead to an increase in healthcare and occupational costs; therefore, adequate training for their prevention and treatment is required.
