General purpose: To review the management of a patient with a chemical burn from wet cement.
Target audience: This continuing education activity is intended for physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and registered nurses with an interest in skin and wound care.
Learning objectives/outcomes: After participating in this educational activity, the participant will:1. Recognize the clinical presentation of a patient with a chemical burn from contact with wet cement.2. Describe features related to the pathophysiology of alkali burns from wet cement.3. Select the proper decontamination procedure after exposure to wet cement.4. Identify steps in the treatment of a patient with a chemical burn from contact with wet cement.

Objective: No standard definition for a completely healed wound currently exists; it is recommended that providers use a reliable wound assessment tool to determine healing. The objective of this feasibility study was to determine if a point-of-care, noncontact, near-infrared (NIR) imaging device could provide an objective measure of wound resolution and guide clinical decision-making for the optimal time to transition from protective wound dressings and gradual return to full activity.
Methods: In this single-center feasibility study, adult patients 18 years and older with a lower extremity wound of any size and etiology were seen weekly for wound assessment and standard-of-care treatment. The researchers performed serial imaging with a point-of-care, noncontact, NIR imaging device (Snapshot NIR ; Kent Imaging Inc) to assess the wound and surrounding skin and evaluated the difference in time to 100% reepithelialization on visual inspection and homogeneous tissue oxygen saturation levels at the wound site and surrounding closed skin envelope.
Results: An average time difference of 13.5 ± 10 days (median, 12 days; range, 0-35 days) was observed between 100% reepithelialization on visual wound inspection and imaging assessment. Further, NIR imaging could determine when a patient was at risk for recurrent wound breakdown.
Conclusions: The addition of point-of-care, noncontact, NIR imaging may help guide clinical decision-making for the optimal time to transition from protective wound dressings with gradual return to full activity and minimize wound recurrence.
