Two new initiatives are now available online: a poster presentation looking at the incidence and treatment of pre-tibial lacerations in the elderly and a podcast on the link between stress, pain and wound healing.

Pre-tibial lacerations are a relatively common injury affecting the elderly

A poster discussing this distressing injury was presented at the European Wound Management Association Conference in May 2010. It highlights the origins of pre-tibial lacerations and investigates current management protocols.
