Sentry Medical’s Senturian Skin Tear Pack is an all-in-one sterilised wound care solution designed to aid in rapid assessment and treatment of skin tears among aged care residents. It contains easy-to-follow instructions to enable non-regulated workers to promptly attend to wounds, classify their severity and record treatment outcomes for later review by a nurse.

The Senturian Skin Tear Pack’s effectiveness on resident skin tear wound recovery was the subject of a four-month independent clinical study across four related Australian aged care sites in 2021. The study was a random controlled trial that was overseen by Healthcare United and RMIT University, using a nurse practitioner who specialises in wound management.

The study found that the Senturian Skin Tear Pack — First Response: reduced average healing time for Type 3 skin tears from 50.9 days to 9.8 days; healed Type 1 tears 13.04 days faster, and Type 2 tears 26.8 days faster; reduced facility treatment costs from an estimated $20,037 to $2366 over a two-month period; and reduced average dressing changes for Type 3 tears from 17 days to just four days.

The Sentry Medical Senturian Skin Tear Pack is endorsed by the International Skin Tear Advisory Panel. Learn more about the Senturian Skin Tear Pack at: https://www.sentrymedical.com.au/product/senturian-skin-tear-pack-first-response/.
