34.5% of hospital-acquired pressure ulcers (PU) occur in patients with medical devices1. Patients with medical devices are 2.4 times more likely to develop PUs of any kind1.
Avantgarde™ FMS is a closed catheter system for the management of episodic fecal incontinence. Small pressure ulcers or ‘hot-spots’ aren’t uncommon in patients with a bowel catheter, and can lead to longer hospitalizations, increased clinical intervention, incident reporting, and potential discomfort and anxiety for the patient.
