How to care for a healing wound

How you care for a healing wound depends on how it’s being held together with regular or dissolving stitches, staples, glue, or adhesive strips.

If your child has stitches or staples, keep their wound covered, clean and dry.

Your doctor will tell you how often to change the bandage. When it’s time, gather all the supplies you need. Gently take off the old bandage. Squeeze antibiotic cream onto a clean cotton ball and apply it to the wound. Cover the wound with a fresh bandage.

Once the wound has formed a scab, wash it gently with mild soap and water once or twice a day. Don’t rub or soak it.

At this stage, it’s a good idea to keep a bandage on it during the day, but leave it open to the air when your child is resting.

If your child’s wound was treated with adhesive strips, trim off the edges of the strips as they separate from the skin over time. If the strips are still in place after seven days, remove them at home by soaking the areas in water.

If your child’s wound was treated with glue, make sure she doesn’t pick at it and don’t apply creams or ointments until the glue falls off, after five to fourteen days.

As your child’s wound heals, the edges will become slightly pink. This is normal. Take your child to the doctor or the Emergency Department if her wound is painful, red or swollen; if there’s yellow or green fluid coming from it; if it opens up or bleeds; or if your child develops a fever within 72 hours after getting the wound fixed.

• When changing a bandage, remove the old one, apply antibiotic cream and put on a fresh bandage.
• Once the wound has scabbed, wash it gently with mild soap and water once or twice a day and leave the wound open to the air when your child is resting.

Robust Temperature Sensing for Medical Applications (MLX90632)

health No Comments »

Meet Melexis’ MLX90632: a miniature infrared (IR) SMD thermometer IC for accurate medical grade (± 0.2 °C) non-contact temperature measurement, especially in thermally dynamic
environments and when available space is limited.

This ultra small device comes in a 3x3x1mm QFN package, eliminating the need for bulky TO-can packages.

Primary applications for this device can be found in wearable health monitoring applications as well as in forehead and ear thermometers and portable blood diagnosis tools.

Small size, high thermal stability and medical grade accuracy are combined within one sensor solution. Our new medical grade MLX90632 infrared sensor is a finalist for the ‘Innovative Product Award’ organized by Sensors Expo 2019.

The Critical Role of Open Source and Open Standards on the Road to Secure and Robust Healthcare

About this Event
FIWARE is known for its ability and speed to address urgent challenges and the needs of society, companies, and public administrations. The need for ready-to-use solutions, based on Open Source and open standards principles – to help automate data sharing – continues to grow rapidly. This has, once again, become evident during the current COVID-19 pandemic.

More and more sharing tools are available, driven by Open Source principles, allowing relevant parties to access existing solutions as well as build on top of widely available ‘off the shelf’ solutions. Moreover, present circumstances are also a test case for data safety and cybersecurity, especially when handling health and personal data.

To showcase the ways in which the FIWARE Community members are on the frontline of helping the health sector to become more secure and robust, no least in times of a global pandemic, this free virtual experience brings together private and public businesses and developers to discuss how Open Source technology is contributing to addressing urgent challenges and the needs of society and the world as a whole.

The FIWARE Healthcare DAY will feature outstanding keynote and specialist speeches from experts in the field, as well as real-life use cases coming from across the world highlighting how health authorities and other relevant parties can leverage Open Source technologies to better track patients, aid to contain viruses and build a robust healthcare system.
