Abstract

Summary: The recurrence rate after pressure sore reconstruction remains high. Primary inciting factors can be organized into efforts aimed at wound prevention: spasticity relief, pressure off-loading, infection and contamination prevention, nutrition optimization, and maximizing extremity function. This article presents our detailed protocol, SPINE, to address each inciting factor with a summary of cases at our facility and review best practices from evidence-based medicine in the literature.
