Remodeling the Scars: A
Burn Patient's Guide
to Compression Garments
Produced by SIU School of Medicine
This video is designed to assist health professionals in getting patients to comply with wearing the compression garments that prevent excessive scarring and contractures. It provides positive testimony from burn victims who have recovered successfully and their families; this patient-to-patient format is a very effective way to ensure compliance. After viewing this video, your patients will know what to expect when you tell them they need to wear compression garments; they will understand
- why it is important for them to wear them
- how they are fitted
- how to put them on
- how it feels to wear them
- how to take care of them
They will learn that choosing to wear the garments will affect the look, feel, and function of their burn scars for the rest of their lives.
Remodeling the Scars can be a valuable educational tool for professionals who care for burn patients as well as patients themselves aged 10 or older.
