Wound Management

Wounds are cuts, tears, burns, breaks, or other damage to living tissue. Wounds are often classified as clean, contaminated, or infected. Clean wounds are those created under sterile conditions, such as surgical incisions. The number of bacteria present determines the difference between contaminated and infected wounds. Initial Wound Management Irrigation of the wound, called lavage, washes away both visible and microscopic debris. This reduces the risk of infection. A syringe is used to spray a solution onto or into the wound to clean it. Cleaning, or debridement, removes dead tissue and foreign material from the wound, reduces bacterial contamination, and helps prevent infection. If the wound is already infected, a sample may be collected for culture. Antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections. Medications for pain relief are also usually given. Wounds that are left open are usually managed with repeated bandaging and debridement. Wet-to-dry dressings are often used. These dressings help clean the wound at every bandage change. In the early stages of healing, the bandage may need to be changed as often as twice daily. Dry, nonstick dressings are used after healing has progressed. A wound may be closed after it has been treated for some time. This is common if an infection is present, but is successfully treated with antibiotics. Such wounds may be closed after 24 to 72 hours or longer. Drains are used to help remove fluid from a wound or body cavity. This prevent...

Degloving Injuries: Types and Causes

Degloving Injuries Degloving injuries are often life-threatening and require immediate medical attention. A degloving injury is a traumatic injury that results in the top layers of skin and tissue being torn away from the underlying muscle, connective tissue or bone. They most commonly affect the legs and are frequently associated with underlying fractures. Because they typically involve severe blood loss and tissue death, they are often life-threatening. Causes of Degloving Injuries Degloving injuries are often associated with accidents involving industrial or farm equipment, but there are several other potential causes, including: • Motorcycle accidents • Car accidents • Sports mishaps • Animal bites • Falls from heights • Construction accidents Types of Degloving Injuries When the skin and tissue are ripped away and the muscles and bones underneath are exposed, this is characterized as an open degloving injury. In some cases, the skin may still be partially attached and hanging as a flap near the wound. A closed degloving injury is a bit more complicated, as the top layer of skin remains intact even though it has been separated from the tissue underneath it. Closed degloving injuries often occur at the top of the hip bone but can also affect the torso, buttocks, lower spine, shoulder blades and knees. Diagnosis of Degloving Injuries Determining the extent of a degloving injury can be difficult, as simply visually assessing the degloved skin might not reveal the full ext...
