Wound Management and Prevention (WMP)
Journal Descriptions
Wound Management and Prevention is a peer-reviewed clinical journal dedicated to advancing evidence-based practice in wound care, skin integrity, and wound prevention strategies. Published by HMP Global, the journal serves as a key resource for healthcare professionals including nurses, physicians, podiatrists, and wound care specialists. The journal evolved from the long-standing publication Ostomy Wound Management, which was first established in 1975. In 2019, it was rebranded to reflect a broader focus on both treatment and prevention of wounds across healthcare settings. It emphasizes practical clinical applications, preventive strategies, and interdisciplinary approaches to wound healing. Typical topics include management of pressure injuries, diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, surgical wounds, ostomy-related skin complications, and infection control practices. The journal also highlights innovations in wound dressings, negative pressure therapy, and patient-centered care models. A major strength of the journal is its strong clinical orientation, providing evidence-based guidance for improving patient outcomes in hospitals, long-term care facilities, and community healthcare settings. It is widely used for continuing education and clinical decision-making support in wound management practice.
