  • Patent number: 5265605
    Abstract: The present invention is a wound assessment tool comprising a wound assessment sheet, having a place for writing wound assessment parameters and a wound assessment graph for tracing wound margins printed thereon, peelably secured to a disposable transparent flexible backing sheet. The backing sheet serves to prevent the wound assessment sheet from contacting the wound. Thus, after the wound is documented, the wound assessment sheet may be removed from the backing sheet which is then disposed. The wound assessment sheet is then secured to a wound assessment worksheet using an adhesive material on the back of the wound assessment sheet which originally secured the wound assessment sheet to the sterile backing sheet, thereby, creating a permanent record of the patient's wound.
