The frequency of changing wound dressings depends on the wound type, the amount of exudate, and the type of dressing used. Generally, dressings should be changed:
1. When Soiled or Wet: To prevent infection and promote healing. 2. Based on Manufacturer's Instructions: Follow guidelines for specific dressings. 3. Signs of Infection: If there are any signs of infection, the dressing should be changed more frequently.
