Abstract

The high number of patients with chronic wounds is also reflected in the German vascular surgery care landscape. In almost every third vascular surgery department, a third of the inpatients treated have a chronic wound. Despite the relevance of these diseases for vascular surgery, there is little willingness on the part of doctors to deal with the topic and to acquire the necessary competence. The reasons given for the still inadequate care, in addition to the lack of medical interest and poor competence of physicians, are interface problems and poor remuneration. The certification process of the Chronic Wounds Initiative and the German Society for Vascular Surgery and Vascular Medicine (DGG), the awareness campaign of the DGG, Your wound in our hands, and the S3 guideline on topical treatment of chronic wounds with risk factors for peripheral arterial disease, diabetes mellitus and chronic venous insufficiency are not known in many places. Far-reaching conclusions can be drawn for the DDG's agenda from the results of the survey presented here. The claim of the DDG, to be recognized as the institution for the treatment of chronic wounds, must be underlined by the acquisition of personal wound treatment competence (including attending advanced training courses), public relations work (e.g. patient information events), Wundsiegel certifications of institutions by the ICW e.V. (Initiative Chronische Wunden e.V.) and imparting excellent knowledge within the framework of vascular surgeons specialist training.
