The challenges of wound care don’t look the same in every setting. Clinicians working in rural or resource-limited environments often have to think differently—especially when treating complex pressure injuries.

In this episode—part of our Season 5 series on pressure injury closure using cellular tissue products—Dr. Lee Ruotsi speaks with Dr. Vilayvanh Saysoukha, a podiatric foot and ankle surgeon and founder of Premier Foot & Ankle Centers of Tennessee. They walk through a unique case involving a dorsal foot pressure injury complicated by diabetes, vascular disease, and limited access to specialty care.

Dr. Saysoukha shares how her team managed the wound using surgical debridement, cellular tissue products, and negative pressure wound therapy, while also addressing broader care coordination challenges. The conversation highlights the value of adaptability, communication, and patient-centered planning.
