Safe Aftercare of Foot and Ankle Surgery: Doing less is more: The Jones Dressing Cast

Tonio Gottlieb

Aftercare of surgical procedures is not consensual in the community of foot and ankle surgeons. Although the incidence of infections following foot and ankle surgery is rare, soft tissue healing might be jeopardized after extensive and multiple approaches. Frequent follow-up with visual control of the operative wound is in part often thought to be the optimal wound care approach. The clinical research about the jones dressing cast showed: less frequent manipulation as well as strain limitation on the wound reduces the need of analgetics, the hospitalisation time, accelerates the mobilisation and helps to avoid complications.
