Evaluating the impact on patients of living with a leg ulcer.

Veronica Budgen.   

Abstract

Much research has been undertaken into the cost-effectiveness of leg ulcer treatments, dressing selections and patient compliance. However, comparatively little research has investigated the effect of leg ulcers on patients' quality of life. This article reviews the literature examining the quality of life of this patient group and the factors that have the greatest negative impact on them.
