Evaluation and Management of Pelvic Osteomyelitis in Stage IV Pressure Injuries: A Multidisciplinary Collaborative Approach.

Managing pelvic osteomyelitis (POM) in the setting of stage IV pressure injuries requires multidisciplinary evaluation as well as patient and caregiver engagement and is complicated by the lack of high-evidence data to guide best practices. In this review, we describe our approach to pressure injury and POM evaluation and management through multidisciplinary collaboration and highlight areas of future research that are necessary to enhance patient outcomes, reduce healthcare costs, and improve the quality of life of those affected by POM.
