Factors impairing wound healing - Includes infection, malnutrition, age, and diabetes.
Partial thickness wounds - Loss of epidermis and partial dermis.
Example of partial thickness wound - Papercut is a common example.
Healing time for open/dry wounds - Typically 6-7 days for partial thickness.
Healing time for covered moist wounds - Typically 4 days for partial thickness.
Full thickness wounds - Extend into underlying tissues like muscle or bone.
Example of full thickness wound - Pressure injury is a common example.
Acute wounds - Heal with first line treatment, small trauma.
Chronic wounds - Non-healable, do not respond to first line treatment.
Primary intention healing - Minimal tissue loss, surfaces closed with little scarring.
Secondary intention healing - Extensive tissue loss, longer repair time, more scarring.
Tertiary intention healing - Delayed primary healing, initially heals by secondary
intention.
Types of drainage - Serous, purulent, sanguineous, serosanguineous.
, Serous drainage - Clear, watery plasma from the wound.
Purulent drainage - Thick, colored fluid indicating infection.
Sanguineous drainage - Bright red drainage indicating active bleeding.
Serosanguineous drainage - Mix of plasma and red blood cells.
Common assessment findings - Includes inflamed edges, skin discoloration, and exudate.
Wound culture - Identifies bacteria to determine appropriate antibiotics.
CBC test - Assesses oxygen and nutritional levels, checks WBC presence.
Biopsy - Removes tissue for analysis of malignancy or osteomyelitis.
Doppler ultrasound - Non-invasive test for blood flow to wound site.
Pharmacologic therapies - Includes antibiotics, antihyperglycemics, and debridement
agents.
Non-pharmacologic therapies - Includes turning patients, ambulation, and wound care.
Assessment of wounds - Evaluate type, size, color, odor, and drainage.
Black wound - Presence of necrotic tissue requiring eschar removal.
