As they say, the skin is the largest organ in the body, and boy, is there a lot of it. In this episode, I talk about a topic I have struggled to develop over the last 9 months, that being, performing a systemic skin assessment of the patient. At first, I found it quite confronting, to expose a naked person, and look under every nook and cranny. But as you’ll hear, the importance of doing so can have a significant impact on a patients stay in ICU.
