"> Wound management in elderly with Parkinson patient face unique challenges due to aging and comorbidities. Skin tears are more common in older adults because of skin fragility due to lacerations caused by shear, friction, or small blunt force trauma. Modern dressing have become increasing important in community base setting to improve in wound healing process. This case study evaluated the effectiveness of hyaluronic acid cream in treating a skin tears in elderly with Parkinson, demonstrating its potential wound healing and reliability treatment option outcome in community base setting. Method a case study was conducted on a 89-year-old man with Parkinson, decreases of visual. Presented with skin tears in left arm after an accidental injury. The wound was considered necrotic tissue 30%, granulation tissue 70%, bleeding and fragile of the around skin. ISTAP classification type 2 with wound size 16x5 cm. The wound was treated using hyaluronic acid cream and were changed every 3 days. Wound healing progression was monitor closely over of 14 days with regular wound assessment, with four images documentation healing and ISTAP classification skin tears. The results of this study show that fourteen days or three dressing changes using hyaluronic acid cream was completed wound edge closure was achieved. Evaluation Changes ISTAP classification type 2 to ISTAP classification type 1 in the second dressing change. Conclusion from a clinical perspective, the successful healing outcome in this case suggest that integrating modern dressing techniques hyaluronic acid cream into wound care protocols for elderly patients with Parkinson in community base setting as they provide a cost-effective, simple solution that reduces infection risk.
