About Wundmanagement

Wundmanagement

Wundmanagement — styled WUNDmanagement — is a German-language specialist journal for professionals working in wound care, published bimonthly since 2007 by the mhp Verlag in Wiesbaden. The nursing trade journal addresses nursing professionals and others active in the prevention, care, and treatment of acute and chronic wounds, with an emphasis on standardized measures and interdisciplinary collaboration. With a sold circulation of 9,000 copies and a distributed circulation of 9,157 copies (IVW Q01/2026), it is the official organ of eight wound-care organizations across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. The editor-in-chief is Barbara Springer.

Overview

The nursing-professional targeting defines the journal: the Pflegefachkräfte's clinical readership, the prevention-care-treatment continuum, and the acute-and-chronic-wound scope. The standardized-measures emphasis gives the practitioners the evidence-based protocols.

The interdisciplinary-collaboration focus addresses the wound care's team nature: the nursing, medical, and therapeutic professions' cooperation, the wound centers and networks' coordination, and the intersectoral care's continuity. The journal's D.A.CH organ network embodies this collaboration.

The bimonthly rhythm gives the thematic focuses their depth: the six annual issues' comprehensive topic coverage, the scientific board's quality control, and the IVW-audited circulation's advertiser confidence. The 9,000-copy sold circulation's professional readership sustains the specialist journal's economics.

Wundmanagement (styled WUNDmanagement) is a German-language specialist journal for persons active in wound care: "Wundmanagement (Eigenschreibweise WUNDmanagement) ist eine deutschsprachige Fachzeitschrift für in der Wundversorgung tätige Personen. Sie erscheint seit 2007 zweimonatlich und wird vom mhp Verlag in Wiesbaden herausgegeben." The journal is described as a German nursing trade journal (deutsche Pflegefachzeitschrift) in the fields of medicine, nursing, and wound management.

The journal addresses especially nursing professionals, but also other persons active in the prevention, care, and treatment of acute and chronic wounds. It places special value on the presentation of standardized measures and the interdisciplinary collaboration of all parties involved in wound care. Each issue sets thematic focuses to comprehensively cover the special requirements of modern wound care. The articles are subject to the control of a scientific editorial board.

The circulation is IVW-audited: a sold circulation of 9,000 copies (IVW Q01/2026) and a distributed circulation of 9,157 copies (IVW Q01/2026). The print ISSN is 1864-1121.

History

The 2007 founding generation's wound-care journalism shaped the program: the chronic-wound epidemic's clinical challenge, the evidence-based wound management's emergence, and the nursing profession's specialization. The mhp Verlag's medical-publishing expertise gave the launch its professional base.

The Wiesbaden publishing base anchors the journal: the Bahnstr. 8 address's editorial and publishing operations, the Hessian media landscape's specialist publishers, and the shop.mhp-verlag.de portal's distribution. The mhp Verlag GmbH's medical-nursing portfolio gives the journal its publishing home.

The media-data continuity documents the operation: the 2025 kit's technical specifications, the DIN A4 format's clinical-journal standard, and the offset-print saddle-stitching's quality. The IVW Q01/2026 audit's 9,000 sold copies confirm the current circulation.

The 2007 first issue placed the journal in the modern wound-care professionalization era: the evidence-based wound management's rise, the chronic-wound initiatives' growth, and the interdisciplinary wound networks' formation. The mhp Verlag's Wiesbaden base — Bahnstr. 8, 65205 Wiesbaden — anchors the journal in the Hessian publishing landscape.

The official-organ network grew with the wound-care associational landscape: the journal is the organ of the Initiative Chronische Wunden e.V. (ICW), the Austrian Society for Wound Treatment (AWA), the Swiss Society for Wound Treatment (SAfW), the Deutscher Wundrat e.V., the Wundnetz Kiel e.V., the Wundzentrum Hamburg e.V., the Wundnetz Rheinland-Pfalz e.V., and the German-Austrian-Swiss Wound Healing Organization (Wund-D.A.CH). The eight-organization network gives the journal its trinational authority.

The 2025 media data documents the current operation: the DIN A4 format, the offset printing with saddle stitching, and the mhp Verlag GmbH's publishing. The journal's continuous bimonthly appearance since 2007 documents its stable position in the nursing press.

Coverage and Content

The chronic-wound journalism addresses the core clinical challenge: the ulcus cruris treatments, the diabetic-foot-syndrome care, and the pressure-ulcer prevention. The ICW organ's chronic-wound focus gives the journal its clinical center.

The therapy-option coverage surveys the interventions: the debridement techniques, the wound-dressing selections, and the biofilm management. The evidence-based presentation serves the practitioners' treatment decisions.

The wound-documentation journalism addresses the quality management: the measurement instruments, the quality-of-life assessments, and the documentation standards. The standardized-measures emphasis gives the documentation its clinical rigor.

The wound-and-psyche coverage addresses the holistic care: the patients' psychological burden, the body-image issues, and the social-support needs. The interdisciplinary focus includes the psychosocial dimension.

The vascular-surgery and lymphology coverage addresses the underlying pathologies: the arterial and venous disease, the lymphedema management, and the surgical interventions. The intersectoral-care journalism covers the hospital-to-home transition.

The thematic focuses structure each issue: the epidemiology, the therapy options, the nutrition and chronic wounds, the ulcus cruris, the vascular surgery, the burns, the incontinence-associated dermatitis, the care research, the intersectoral care, the wound documentation, the lymphology, the wound and psyche, the quality-of-life measurement instruments, the wound infections, and the wound centers and networks.

The standardized-measures emphasis serves the clinical practice: the evidence-based protocols, the interdisciplinary collaboration models, and the wound-documentation standards. The scientific editorial board's control gives the articles their peer-reviewed quality.

The trinational organ network's topics reflect the D.A.CH wound-care community: the ICW's chronic-wound initiatives, the AWA and SAfW's Austrian and Swiss perspectives, and the regional wound networks' practical work. The journal's nursing-professional readership gets the clinically applicable wound-care knowledge.

Organization and Ownership

The mhp Verlag's specialist-publisher identity defines the journal: the Wiesbaden-based medical and nursing publishing, the shop.mhp-verlag.de portal's book and journal program, and the hospital-hygiene portfolio. The specialist focus keeps the editorial program clinically oriented.

The Springer editorship defines the current journalism: Barbara Springer's editor-in-chief leadership, the scientific editorial board's quality control, and the bimonthly issues' thematic direction. The editorial team's nursing-medical expertise gives the journal its professional credibility.

The eight-organization organ network's governance gives the journal its associational character: the ICW, AWA, SAfW, Deutscher Wundrat, and regional wound networks' institutional backing. The trinational D.A.CH coverage makes the journal the German-language wound-care community's shared platform.

The media-data PDF's digital distribution documents the commercial offerings: the 2025 kit's advertising formats, the technical specifications, and the contact details. The anzeigen@mhpmedien.de address handles the industry advertising.

The wound-care community's digital integration connects the journal to the organ organizations: the ICW, AWA, SAfW, and Wund-D.A.CH links, the wound-network portals, and the conference announcements. The trinational network's online presence complements the print journal's D.A.CH authority.

The digital home is shop.mhp-verlag.de, the mhp Verlag's shop portal for books, journals, and information on wound management, hospital hygiene, and related topics. The 2025 media data is distributed as PDF, documenting the journal's print and advertising specifications.

The journal's digital presence combines the shop portal with the mhp Verlag's online offerings.

Dedicated apps or podcasts for the Wundmanagement brand are not detailed in the sources reviewed; the brand's digital presence centers on the publisher's shop portal and the bimonthly print journal's wound-care journalism since 2007.
