Wound care and tissue viability records that hold up under audit
Structured dressing visits, auto-scored Braden and Waterlow risk assessments, EPUAP grading and an ABPI safety gate replace free-text notes with defensible clinical data — for hospital wards and nurse-led wound clinics alike.
The problem
Wound details, dressing changes, risk scores and doppler readings get buried in generic free-text note boxes attached to an admission or appointment. When a regulator or quality team asks for evidence of risk assessment and healing progression, free-text notes do not hold up — and a pressure ulcer without a Braden score behind it is indefensible.
The solution
Wound Care and Tissue Viability gives every wound, dressing visit and risk assessment a structured, filterable record anchored to the patient. Braden and Waterlow scores calculate automatically, EPUAP grading flags reportable incidents, and compression therapy is blocked until a current ABPI reading is on file.
Everything a wound or pressure-ulcer record needs
Every capability below is implemented in the module.
Structured dressing-visit records
Every dressing visit is logged with reference, date, wound type, site and status — replacing a buried note with a clean, reportable row.
ABPI / doppler safety gate
Compression therapy cannot be confirmed without a current, in-range ABPI or doppler reading, with an on-screen warning instead of a missed note.
Braden risk scoring
Six Braden subscales total automatically to a 6-23 score with a risk band, so pressure-ulcer risk is calculated, not estimated.
Waterlow risk scoring
Waterlow components sum automatically to a total score and risk band, removing manual arithmetic from a safety-critical assessment.
EPUAP grading and reportable incidents
EPUAP category grading automatically flags hospital-acquired Category II and above pressure ulcers as reportable incidents.
Support-surface recommendation
Risk scores drive a recommended pressure-relieving surface from the support-surface library, with a mismatch alert when the surface in use does not match.
Healing trend tracking
Initial and current wound area and healing percentage compute automatically on every wound, so progression or deterioration is visible at a glance.
Reference libraries
Wound types, body sites, dressing types and support surfaces are maintained as reusable libraries, keeping records consistent across wards and clinics.
Admission and appointment traceability
Smart buttons on the patient record show linked wound, dressing and review counts, giving one-click traceability from either direction.
How it works
Open a wound record
Create a wound record on the patient with type, site and initial dimensions as soon as it is identified.
Log each dressing visit
Record dressing type, product and the ABPI/doppler reading required before any compression therapy is confirmed.
Score the risk
Complete the Braden and Waterlow assessments; scores and risk bands calculate automatically from the subscales entered.
Track healing and compliance
Review the healing trend and reportable-incident flag on every wound, with full chatter history for audit.

No. The module is standalone, depending only on Odoo's base and mail apps, so it installs on any Odoo database without locking you into a separate hospital or clinic platform.
