Abstract：Objective To evaluate the effect of management of abdomen wound dehiscence under guidance of Wound Bed Preparation (WBP) theory. Methods Thirteen patients with abdomen wound dehiscence were selected. The individual nursing plan based on WBP theory was performed. The incision was closed by steristrips or secondary closure after WBP. The condition of wound bed, including wound area, depth, wound discharge and pressure ulcer scale for healing (PUSH) were compared before and after treatment. The preparation time of wound bed and wound healing time were recorded. Results The amount of wound discharge and PUSH score were significant lower after treatment than those before treatment (P0.01). The average preparation time of wound bed and wound healing time were (10.23±4.46) days and (16.31±3.17) days, respectively. The preparation time of wound bed was positively correlated with PUSH score (r=0.819, P0.01) and age (r=0.738, P0.01). Conclusion The WBP theory shows instructive value in management of abdomen wound dehiscence. It can improve the condition of wound bed and accelerate wound healing.
