title: [Nursing process for patients treated with negative pressure therapy afther severe foottrauma].
abstract: Foot injuries inflicted by firearms and high pressure washing machines cause distortion of psychophysical and biomechanical characteristics with decrease of ability to satisfy the basic human needs and existing mode of living. Treatment with negative pressure accelerates wound healing process and recovery. Nursing role is significant in all these problems, which arise as patient reaction to the severe trauma. With the extensive surgical procedures required and nursing intervention, the actual and potential patient problems are minimized or eliminated, as evidenced from the good functional and esthetic results, and resuming independence and usual daily activities.
