The general references that involve writing the author's name date of publication title of the work and the initials of the second names were not followed properly.

Sister journal article does not have a DOI number; it was supposed to be accompanied by an external link to the site that outlines the path to which the journal article was written. There is no precise link to the journal article.

"Preparation for Maggot Debridement Therapy (MDT) as debridement should include optimization of the wound. Patient nutritional status, hydration, perfusion, and pain intensity should be addressed to optimize wound healing after effective debridement. The wound should be cleaned of all dried exudate and eschar before application of medical-grade maggots." (Klaus, 2015)

Description

There was only one other acknowledged instead of both authors who are Klaus and Steinwedel.

The in-text citation is too long for acknowledging the author's concepts.

The best attention could include the following, intext, quotation marks, a bracket to introduce the authors, the two authors separated by a conjunction, year of publication, and page number.

Example:

"Text" (Klaus & Steinwedel, 2015, p. xx).
