Aim: Caesarean section wound management continue to be a challenge issue in<br />
midwives. This study discusses the use of electronic mobile devices (MEDs)- QR cod for<br />
teaching material, and the results of incorporating it into the field of evidence base<br />
wound management in clinical nursing practice.<br />
Method: People commonly use MEDs for everyday activities such as e-mailing, texting,<br />
talking and playing. Peoples’ familiarity with these devices may make it beneficial for<br />
educators to use MEDs to enhance health information teaching and wound care<br />
learning. The purpose of the study is to develop the wound care film, which the<br />
participant can use the cellular phone equipped with webcam and connected on-line to<br />
the homepage via URL by using the QR Code and through the technologies of 3G or<br />
Wi-Fi to increase the visibility of the website. Ten parturient participated in the study.<br />
Result: During the study period, all participants praised highly of the accurate<br />
transmission of the prescription information.<br />
Conclusions: Our study has proven that QR-code prescription can provide wound<br />
management an efficient, accurate and inexpensive device to digitalize the prescription<br />
contents. Consequently, Nurses can offer better quality of caesarean section wound<br />
management to parturient. Our results show possible applications for QR code in wound<br />
care education.<br />

Diagnoses of Elevated Protease Activity and the Efficacy of Collagen/ORC/Silver<br />
Objective:<br />
• To examine the effects of diagnosing EPA(Elevated Protease Activity) wounds and the<br />
role of Collagen/ ORC /Silver products on these Wounds.<br />
• To demonstrate how determining targeted use of Collagen/ORC/Silver product<br />
improves clinical outcome.<br />
Introduction: Elevated MMP activity in chronic wound exudate causes the wounds to be<br />
chronic. Extracellular matrix (ECM) and growth factors are broken down by protease<br />
enzymes and delay and/or stop wound healing. studies show that Collagen/ORC/Silver<br />
are more effective than the control group in reducing protease activity. For this reason,<br />
we have observed the effect of Collagen/ORC/Silver to stop protease activity, to protect<br />
ECM and growth factors.<br />
Study: In this study, we applied Protease activity test in two of three wounds of a patient<br />
with Pressure Ulcer. All three wounds has been tested. And EPA results were positive. In<br />
two of the wounds we have used Collagen/ORC/Silver. The third wound has been<br />
treated with NPWT(Negative Pressure Therapy). We have compared the treatment<br />
duration and cost-effectivity at the end of the treatment.<br />
Result: The wounds treated with Collagen/ ORC/ Silver has been healed 50% earlier<br />
than the wound treated with NPWT. Overall treatment costs had reduced 48%.<br />
Conclusion: We have observed that we can achieve greater results with Collagen/ORC/<br />
Silver products when we diagnose EPA at the beginning of the threatment. Targeting<br />
Collagen/ORC/Silver in EPA wounds was found to increase the efficacy of these<br />
therapies<br />
