Only comprehensive reference book on pressure ulcers and their management

Only book in its field endorsed by the European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel, the leading European authority on pressure ulcers



Prof. Marco Romanelli, MD, Ph.D is a Founding Member and Past-President of the European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (EPUAP). Dr. Romanelli served as the President and Council Member of the European Wound Management Association (EWMA), Executive Board member of the World Union Wound Healing Society (WUWHS). He was the President of the Italian Association for Cutaneous Ulcer (AIUC). He has a special interest in wound assessment using physical measurements, inflammatory ulcers, biochemical markers in wound healing and has published widely in this field, in which he continues to undertake research. Dr. Romanelli is on the editorial board of the journals WOUNDS, Wound Repair and Regeneration, The International Journal of Lower Extremity Wounds, Journal of Wound Care, International Wound Journal, Acta Vulnologica & Journal of Tissue Viability Nurses Society. He is a director of the Wound Healing Research Unit within the University of Pisa in Italy and leads a research group actively involved in clinical, laboratory and educational activities. He serves as a Member of Medical Advisory Board at Systagenix Wound Management, Limited. Dr. Romanelli is a Board certified, Consultant Dermatologist at the Department of Dermatology, University of Pisa and received a PhD in Experimental Dermatology from the University of Naples.

Michael Clark is Director of the Welsh Wound Network. A zoologist by training, Professor Clark has worked in tissue viability and wound healing since 1980. He is Professor in Tissue Viability, Birmingham City University, UK supporting their Tissue Viability Practice Development Unit one day a week. Between 2003 and 2009 he was a member of the Wound Healing Research Unit, Cardiff University and had responsibility for physical measurement research within the WHRU. From 2009-2013 Professor Clark managed the Welsh Wound Network while also acting as an independent consultant.

Prof. Amit Gefen received the B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering and M.Sc. and Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from Tel Aviv University in 1994, 1997, and 2001, respectively. During 2002-2003 he was a post-doctoral fellow at the University of Pennsylvania, USA. He is currently a Full Professor with the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the Faculty of Engineering of Tel Aviv University and the Herbert J. Berman Chair in Vascular Bioengineering. The research interests of Prof. Gefen are in studying normal and pathological effects of biomechanical factors on the structure and function of cells, tissues and organs, with emphasis on applications in chronic wound research. In 2007-2008 he was a visiting scientist at Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands, where he developed tissue-engineered model systems to study pressure ulcers. To date, Prof. Gefen published more than 200 articles in peer-reviewed international journals, many of which on mechanobiology, cell and tissue biomechanics, with applications that are mostly in chronic wound prevention.

Guido Ciprandi graduated from University of  Rome La Sapienza (UR1)  in 1982, 1987 and University of Rome Tor Vergata (UR2) in 1992.
