Let's listen and learn from our patients.

The evidence debate is in full spate, with everyone having their say as to how we can achieve the best clinical outcomes. But the one voice that probably has the most important contribution to make in this debate is not being fully heard. And that, of course, is the patient. And yet it is an article of faith that good outcomes can only be achieved if the patient is involved in clinical decisionmaking, and that this is driven by their priorities, needs and circumstances. So somehow, in our attempts to identify feasible methods of producing objective, quantifiable data, we need to ensure that the research question and the variables selected reflect the patient's subjective reality of living with a wound and their expectations of care.
