Description

A group focusing on the prevention and rehabilitation of chronic lower limb wounds was launched with the aim of 1) providing and disseminating information about the rehabilitation of patients with chronic leg wounds, a condition for which multi-disciplinary collaboration is essential, and 2) promoting clinical studies in this area. In terms of teaching and disseminating information, so far three study meetings for physiotherapists, occupational therapists, prosthetists, and other professionals associated with rehabilitation have been held as satellite meetings of the Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society of Limb Salvage and Podiatric Medicine, and symposia, lectures, and workshops for related medical associations and groups have also been conducted. These educational and information-disseminating activities have provided information not only for therapists who are already involved in limb salvage treatment, but also for those who will engage in such treatment in future. Research activities associated with the group have received Health and Labor Sciences Research Grants, and the results were shared in study meetings, in which the topics concerned were explored further. The group continues to encourage the spread of information about the rehabilitation of patients with chronic leg wounds and to promote research activities on the basis of multi-disciplinary collaboration.
