The quality of life of patients with chronic wounds is significantly reduced. Through pain, wound odor, and exudate, they experience limitations in various areas of their daily life. Pain can lead to reduced mobility, sleep disorders, or reduced food intake. Physical limitations caused by the wound itself, dependence on caregivers, and the financial burden are further influencing factors. At the same time, chronic wounds lead to changes in social life, withdrawal from friends and family, and a feeling of powerlessness over a patient's own life. Pre-existing anxiety or a depressive disorder can further negatively influence the quality of life. There are various general and diagnosis-specific assessment tools for measuring the quality of life of patients with chronic wounds. Such a survey should be carried out regularly in the course of wound therapy. Especially at the beginning of treatment, it is important to identify limiting factors and to evaluate them regularly during wound therapy and to work out possible solutions together with the patient.
慢性伤口患者的生活质量显著下降。由于疼痛、伤口异味和渗出物，他们在日常生活的各个方面都受到限制。疼痛会导致行动不便、睡眠障碍或食物摄入量减少。伤口本身造成的身体限制、对护理人员的依赖以及经济负担是进一步的影响因素。同时，慢性伤口会导致社交生活发生变化，与朋友和家人疏远，并让患者对自己的生活感到无力。先前存在的焦虑或抑郁症会进一步对生活质量产生负面影响。有各种通用的和针对特定诊断的评估工具来衡量慢性伤口患者的生活质量。在伤口治疗过程中应定期进行这样的调查。特别是在治疗开始时，识别限制因素并在伤口治疗期间定期对其进行评估，并与患者共同制定可能的解决方案非常重要。
