title: The Bates-Jensen Wound Assessment Tool: a pictorial guide validation project: notice of duplicate publication.
abstract: The article, "The Bates-Jensen Wound Assessment Tool: A Pictorial Guide Validation Project," published in the May/June 2010 issue of Journal of Wound, Ostomy and Continence Nursing, contains some content virtually identical to an earlier article by the same authors in "The Bates-Jensen Wound Assessment Tool (BWAT): Development of a Pictorial Guide for Training Nurses" (Wound Care Canada, 2009;7(2):33). While we believe that there was no intent to harm, the original publication should have been cited by the authors.
