Superficial Wounds
• Involve epidermis only
• No breach of basement membrane
• No bleeding• Can be painful• Ex- sunburn, “rug
burn”
Arterial Wounds
• Inadequate arterial flow– Tissue lacks nutrients
and oxygen to maintain• Causes: peripheral
vascular disease, diabetes, embolism
• Often located on tips of toes and fingers
Venous Wounds
• Inadequate venous drainage
• Causes: vein valve disfunction, post vein removal, DVT, vein dilation
• Often located LE, above ankle
• Weepy wound
Pressure Wounds
• Aka- “bedsore”• Excessive or
unrelieved pressure• Often over bony
prominences• Impaired mobility
Neuropathic Wounds
• Wound develops in area with impaired sensation
• Commonly on foot• Often patients with
diabetes, s/p chemothepy, neurodegenerative diseases, nerve compression
• Often lead to amputation
Acute Surgical Wounds
• Often sutured or stapled and heals quickly
• Left open due to swelling
• Infection, poor nutrition can lead to chronic wound
Atypical Wounds
• Dermal disease– dermatitis, pemphigus, autoimmune, fungal
infection• Trauma• Malignancy• Necrotizing fasciitis

Acute Wound Healing
Hemostasis/Coagulation
• Goals:– Control bleeding
• Clotting cascade– Begins immediately upon injury– Activate platelets
Hemostasis/CoagulationCellular component
• The Platelet– Activates to form
fibrin clot– Stems blood flow– Release cytokines
• PDGF• TGF-ß• EGF
Hemostasis/CoagulationCytokines
• Platelet derived growth factor (PDGF)– Directs collagen
expression– Released with platelet
activation– Neutrophil, macrophage
chemotaxis
• TGF-ß– Directs collagen
expression
Inflammatory Phase
• 0-3 days• Begins with clotting cascade and platelets• Characterized by:
– Rubor (redness)– Turgor (swelling)– Calor (heat– Dolar (pain)
Inflammatory Phase
• Goals:– Destroy pathogens
• White blood cells– Clean wound site
• Breakdown cellular and extracellular debris– Signal cells of repair
• Cytokines, growth factors,
Inflammatory PhaseCellular Component
• Neutrophils– Migrate into wound within 24
hours• Initially largest proportion of
WBCs– Remain 6 hours to 4 days– Called to wound by presence of
fibrinogen, fibrin degradation products
– Move into wound from vasculature by diapedesis
Inflammatory PhaseCellular Component
• Macrophages– Most active in late
inflammatory phase– Main regulatory cell of
inflammation– Remain through
proliferative and remodeling phases
Inflammatory PhaseCellular Component
• Macrophages– Phagocytize bacteria and exogenous debris– Secrete collagenases to remove damaged
extracellular matrix– Release nitric oxide to kill bacteria– Release fibronectin to recruit fibroblasts– Can stimulate angiogenesis
Inflammatory PhaseMolecular Component
• Compliment– Immunology course– Bacterial destruction
• Opsization• Bacterial lysis
– Chemotactic factors• Phagocytic cells, neutrophils, macrophages
Inflammatory PhaseMolecular ComponentMacrophage Derived
• PDGF• TNF-
ProinflammatoryInduce MMPs
• IL-1– Proinflammatory– Stimulates NO synthesis– Amplifies inflammatory
response
– IL-6• Proinflammatory
– G-CSF• proinflammatory
– CM-CSF• ECM degradation
Proliferative Phase
• Overlaps inflammatory phase
• Begins 3-5 days post injury
• Length of phase dictated by wound size (~3 weeks for closed surgical wounds)
• Includes angiogenesis, re-epithelialization, fibroplasia
Proliferative PhaseAngiogenesis
• Neovascularization• Granulation tissue
– Buds of new capillaries• Does not occur if
ECM absent• Stimulated by FGF,
VEGF, TGF-ß, EGF, wound angiogenesis factor
Proliferative PhaseMatrix Formation
• Aka- fibroplasia• Begins 48-72 hours post injury• Fibroblasts secrete collagen (type III) and
ground substance • Maximally secretes for 5-7 days• Forms scaffold for endothelial migration• Binds cytokines, growth factors
Wound Extracellular Matrix• Composed of collagen
and ground substance• Produced by
fibroblasts• Provide structure for
cells and tissues• Bind growth factors,
helps create gradient
Ground Substance
• Amorphous viscous gel produced by fibroblasts• Comprised of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and
proteoglycans• Occupies space between cells and fibers• Allows medium for diffusion of nutrients and
wastes
Ground Substance• Major GAGs- hyularonic acid, chondroitin
sulfate• Composition varies by age and location
– Decreased water with age– GAGs increased in wounds, weight bearing
surfaces
Collagen and Wounds
• Normal surgical wound has 15% tensile strength of non-injured tissue after 3 weeks.
• Increases to 70-80% in two years• Wound recurrence: gravity, swelling, poor closure
Proliferative PhaseRe-epithelialization
• Resurfaces wound• Restores integrity of epithelium• Keratinocytes migrate into and proliferate
over wound bed– Inhibited by scabs
• REQUIRES basement membrane
Proliferative PhaseRe-epithelialization
• Begins within 24 hours of injury• Closed surgical wounds complete in 48-72
hours• New skin tensile strength ~15% of original
skin• After remodelling tensile strength only 70-
80%
Remodeling Phase
• Begins during proliferative phase• Continues 1-2 years post injury• Scar tissue/ECM remodeled• Increases tensile strength of scar
– Type III collagen replaced by type I

tinsel strength– Deeper layers– Avoid in highly
contaminated wounds– Avoid in adipose tissue– Synthetic & monofilament
> natural & braided
Staples
• More rapidly placed• Less foreign body
reaction• Scalp, trunk,
extremities• Do not allow for
meticulous closure
Adhesive Tapes
• Less reactive than staples
• Use of tissue adhesive adjunct (benzoin)

Moist Wound Healing
• DRY IS DEAD!
• Moist environment allows:– Cell function– Diffusion of chemical factors– Migration of cells– Autolytic debridement
Moist Wound HealingDressings
• Gauze is bad
• Absorb or give moisture
• Antimicrobial• Conform to wound• Limit dressing
changes
Chronic Wounds
• Wound “fails to proceed through an orderly and timely process to produce anatomic and functional integrity, or proceeded through the repair process without establishing a sustained anatomic and functional result”
• No definitive amount of time to be considered chronic
Chronic Wounds
• Wound gets “stuck” in one phase of healing• Causes can be intrinsic, extrinsic or iatrogenic
Chronic WoundsIntrinsic causes
• Age• Chronic disease• Perfusion/oxygenation• Immunosuppression• Neurologic impairments
Chronic WoundsExtrinsic causes
• Medication• Nutrition• Irration/chemotherapy• Psychophysiologic stress• Wound bioburden
Chronic WoundsIatrogeneic causes
• Local ischemia• Poor wound care• Trauma• Wound extent• Wound duration
Ischemic arterial ulcers
• Poor blood supply• Painful, usually distal• Shallow wound, • smooth margins, pale• S/Sx of PVD: intermittent claudication, rest
pain, color changes, ↓ pulses, ABI < 1, dry skin, pallor, hair loss
• Tx: revascularization, wound care
Venous stasis ulcers
• Incompetence of the deep vein perforators
• capillary leakage- polymerization of fibrin impairs oxygenation
• Painless, shallow ulcer with irregular margins, possible skin pigmentation (hemoglobin extravasation and breakdown)
• Tx: compression therapy (rigid or flexible)
Diabetic ulcers• 10-15% of DM pts develop ulcers• Causes: ischemia, neuropathy
(unrecognized injury,Charcot foot)• Poor healing• Tx: Tight blood glc control, abx, wide
debridement of necrotic/ infected tissue, relief of pressure via orthotics/casts, potentially: topical PDGF and GM-CSF, skin grafts
Decubitus/pressure ulcers• Localized tissue necrosis from
compression over a bony prominence, ↓ nutrients/O2
• ↑ by friction, moisture• 3-9% acute care, 2.4-23% in long-term
care facilities• Tx: debridement of all necrotic tissue,
relief of pressure, wound care (moist environ), surgical flap repair, nutrition
• 4 stages:– I. Non blanchable erythema, intact skin– II. Partial thickness skin loss of
epidermis/dermis– III. Full thickness skin loss, above
fascia– IV. Full thickness, involves muscle or
bone
Excess Dermal Scarring• Occur after trauma, may burn or be pruritic• Xs of collagen/glycoprotein deposition
• Hypertropic scars– Usu develop within 4 wks of trauma– Collagen bundles are wavy pattern– Stay within the original wound, elevated < 4mm– Occur across areas of tension/flexing– Often regress – Tx: excision + corticosteroids
• Keloids– 15x more common in pts with darker skin
pigmentation– Develop 3mos-years after trauma– Collagen fibers are larger, random/ not bundled– Expand beyond wound edges, can become large– Rarely regress– Excision alone (45-100% recurrence). Corticosteroids
then Excision + corticosteroid injections, topical silicone, external compression, xrt, IFN-γ, 5-FU, bleomycin
Dressings• Mimics epithelial barrier, protection of site• Compression provides hemostasis, decreases
edema• Occlusion controls hydration and allows for
oxygenation/gaseous diffusion• Occlusion stimulates collagen synth and epith cell
migration• Primary- directly on wound• Secondary- placed on a primary dressing
Skin Grafts• Split/partial thickness graft = epidermis + partial dermis
– Require less vascular supply• Full thickness = entire epidermis and dermis
– Greater mechanical strength, increased resistance to wound contraction, improved cosmesis
• Autograft – transplant from another site• Allograft – transplant from a living nonidentical donor or cadaver
– Subject to rejection, may contain pathogens• Xenograft – from another species
– Subject to rejection, may contain pathogens• Preparation of wound bed – debridement of necrotic/fibrinous
tissue, control of edema, minimizing exudate, revascularization of wound bed, ↓ bacterial load
Hydrocolloid : Indication
• For low to moderate exuding wounds• For clean, granulating, superficial
wounds• With safe surrounding skin
Hydrocolloids : Advantage• Require changing only every 3 -
7 days• Provide effective occlusion and
barrier (prevent the spread of Infection
• Cost effective • More effective than traditional

SKIN COVER:
The best dressing is the patients skin whether the wound be closed directly, or by skin graft or skin flap. Early cover means early healing and potential avoidance of infection and bad scarring
PLASTIK REPLACEMENT OF SKINPLASTIK REPLACEMENT OF SKIN
EASY CLOSURE WITHOUT TENSION:
Be aware of closing wounds under tension, the wound edges may slough, the wound may dehisce, and there is the potential for a bad scar (either hypertrophic, keloidal or stretched). Sometimes a flap or a graft may be required to reduce the tension in a wound.
Wound classification
• Aetiology is therefore important in your understanding of how a wound arose and what structures may also be damaged or require attention
• Although there are many causes of wounds, in practise, as part of your assessment prior to definite management, you will need to categorise a wound into “tidy” or “untidy”
Practical Classification of Wounds:
• TIDY • UNTIDY
Tidy wounds:
• Clean incision• Uncontaminated• Less than 6 hours old• Low energy trauma
Tidy wounds:
• Can be repaired immediately after adequate wound exploration , cleansing and haemostasis
• Are associated with a low incidence of wound infection post repair
Untidy wounds:
• Ragged edge,crush or burn• Contaminated• More than 12 hours old• High energy trauma
Untidy wounds:
• Need to be converted into tidy wounds• May require repeated debridements until
tissue viability is ensured• Never close an untidy wound unless it has
been made tidy• If in doubt, it is safer to leave the wound
unrepared (but not undebrided!) and reinspected at 48 hour intervals
Evacuate haematoma and obtain haemostasis
ANTIBIOTIC and ANTITETANUS
COVER
NECROTIC TISSUE REMOVED
DRAINS and
DEAD -SPACE OBLITERATION
Dead space will fill up with blood or serous fluid which is an ideal culture medium. Obliterate this dead space by drainage, suture or by healthy tissue.
Closure of Tidy Wounds:
• Tidy wounds should be closed primarily• All damaged structures should be repaired• Sutures are to oppose NOT necrose• Use monofilament materials
Closure of Untidy Wounds
• Only close primarily if can be converted to a tidy wound
• Doubtful tissue must be meticulously but ruthlessly excised
• Copious Levage “Dilution is the solution to pollution”
• If in doubt, don’t close• 48 hourly “second looks”
