Wound Blog did very well in the 2011 year with over 17,000 visits. Many of the visits came from outside of the United States which is the goal of any author sharing clinical information. Countries that represented the bulk of visitors included Canada, UK, India, Philippines, Australia, and New Zealand. The top searches from visitors included topics such as Panafil and Santyl. Clearly, we as clinicians are still looking for a better way to debride our patient’s wounds (Take a look at Wound Blogs article on DrawTex which research suggests actively debrides draining wounds). Other common searches that brought visitors to wound blog include diabetic foot ulcers. I cover a lot of very specific clinical suggestions for diabetic patients, so I’m pleased that search engines recognized the value of these articles. I look forward to sharing more clinical wound information with you in 2012.
