3 Pain Control with Wound Vac Dressing Changes: Wound Care |

Описание: Pain Control Tips for Wound VAC Dressing Changes | Nursing School Clinical Skills

Wound VAC dressing changes can be painful and stressful for patients, so proactive pain management is essential. In this video, we break down four key strategies every nurse should know to improve patient comfort during the procedure:
🩺 1. Pain medication timing
• Oral meds: give 45–60 minutes before
• IV meds: give right before the dressing change
🩹 2. Adhesive remover + push–pull technique to minimize skin irritation
💧 3. Topical lidocaine (when ordered) to help reduce localized pain
💬 4. Distractions. Conversation, music, or guided focus can make a big difference
These simple interventions help build trust, reduce anxiety, and support a smoother overall experience for the patient.
