Objective: The aim of 2022 IWII consensus document update was to provide an accessible and useful clinical resource incorporating the latest evidence and current best practice for wound infection and prevention Method: A systematic review of the literature was undertaken to identify research published since 2016. A modified Delphi process was used for definitions within the document. Grading of evidence for clinical effectiveness of wound infection interventions for topical antimicrobial treatments was guided by the PICO approach. Evidence sources were critically appraised using tools recommended by GRADE. Ranking was labelled as high, moderate or low certainty. The document was peer reviewed by leading experts in wound management/ infection. Outcome: The 2022 Wound Infection in Clinical Practice document consists of 15 sections of contemporary wound infection practice, methodology, References: and a glossary. Extensive work has been conducted to update the 2022 IWII-WIC Management Guide and provides a one-page visual tool for wound infection and biofilm management to promote ease of use and accessibility for clinicians Results: The entire document has been published on the International Wound Infection Institute website but additional pdf versions of the WIC and Management Guide are also free to download. One version is the entire diagram, another is just the WIC and the third is the BBWC diagram of the step down / step up care. Conclusion: The focus of this presentation would be on the updated WIC and Management Guide.
