On March 18 and 19, the first International Surgical Wound Forum (ISWF) took place in Amsterdam. The ISWF is a scientific platform designed to share and debate state-of-the-art information and opinions on the management of surgical wounds. More than 170 surgeons from diverse surgical backgrounds exchanged knowledge on the management of complex surgical wounds, all in the aim of improving the future of wound care.
Chaired by Dr. James Patrick Stannard, Professor of Surgery and Chairman, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at the University of Missouri, and sponsored by leading global medical technology company, Kinetic Concepts, Inc. (KCI), the goal of the ISWF is to bring together leading international surgeons to discuss:

? Improving outcomes through early awareness in the treatment of patients with specific wound healing complications
? The latest evidence as it relates to wound healing decisions and interventions
? New alternatives and therapies for surgical wound management, and�
? How to better manage costs associated with the management of complicated surgical wounds
The open forum was structured around three main pervasive wound themes:� Open Surgical Wounds, Infected Surgical Wounds and Closed Incisional Surgical Wounds. Video podcasts were recorded for sharing the knowledge with a global wide peer-to-peer audience and broadcasted on a 27/7 basis via the International Wound Care knowledge base for Health Care Professionals: www.woundsite.info
