Wound Care and Dressing
Open Wounds
-Abrazion (abrasion, abrasion)
- Incision
-Avulsion
-Laseration (tearing)
- Penetration
- Crush
- Gunshot injury
Absorbent dressing; is the closure of the wound surface with absorbent, dry material to allow suction from the wound to be absorbed. Soft wraps also provide absorbent dressings.
Wounds by Contamination with Pathogen Microorganisms
Firearm injury; penetrating and penetrating wounds caused by bullet, bullet, bullets and gunpowder.
The incision is the wound opened on the body surface by cutting tools. Surgical wounds of the desired size and width opened in the hospital environment is also called incisional wound. The wound edges are smooth.
Pressure dressing
Wound care (dressing) is a process made with aseptic materials that protect the wound from external factors, remove the secretion from the environment, apply pressure to the bleeding area, facilitate the administration of medications, and maintain the anatomical position of the wounded area.
Crush
TRAUMA
Firearm injury
Penetration
An acute wound is a wound that heals normally in the expected time.
there are no factors that prevent healing (diseases, age, etc.) and healing is continuous.

Wound Care and Dressing
Protective dressing; is a dressing made by covering the wound surface or the moistening material placed on the wound with waterproof material to protect the wound from the external environment.
Blunt injuries caused by knocking and impacts on the skin surface. Skin integrity is intact. Ecchymosis and edema are seen in the wound area.
Acute wound
contusion
Avulsion is a part of the skin ruptured or separated so that a small part remains attached. The part that is completely broken is called the flap and the part that is separated is called the pedicle. The amount of bleeding is high.
Wounds by Time of Occurrence
Dry dressing; the epidermis is intact and the dressing material is not likely to adhere to the wound.
Pressure dressing; to stop bleeding, to reduce edema, to close the dead cavity of the wound surface of the wound with pressure is to close the material.
The pressure is applied equally throughout the wound.
If pressure dressing is to be applied to the extremity, the dressing starts from the distal and proximal to the wound.
A chronic wound is a wound that does not close within three months.
The wound repeats continuously. There is a local or systemic factor that prevents wound healing. Example: Bed sores.
For physical and chemical reasons, skin, muscle, bone, vessel, nerve, etc. deterioration of the integrity of structures, destruction, the temporary or complete loss of physiological properties of tissue is called trauma.
Chronic wound
Blast effect injury
Absorbent dressing
Clean wound
Laceration is the deterioration of skin integrity due to the force of blunt and crushing objects (traffic accidents, bullets or bomb fragments). Irregularity and crushing may occur at the wound edges due to ruptures.
Wet dressing is applied if a wound medication or antiseptic is to be applied to the wound.
The wet dressing must be changed at least every two hours.
A clean wound is a non-pathogenic wound.
No tissue loss,
No infection,
The wound edges are joined,
Wounds that develop minimal scar tissue are clean wounds.
Abrasion occurs when the skin rubs against a hard and uneven surface. Damage to the epidermis and dermis. Capillary bleeding, pain and redness are seen in the injured area.
Infected wound
Infected wound is a wound containing pathogenic microorganisms.
Yarada; Redness, pain, discharge, bad smell etc. Symptoms of infection are seen.
Delayed wounds (more than 6 hours),
Wounds with uneven edges,
Wounds separated by seams,
Very dirty and deep sores,
Firearm wounds,
Wounds caused by biting and insertion
Protective dressing
Closed wounds
-Kontüzyo The (crushed)
-Blast effect injury
Avulsion
Wounds;
to view
cause of occurrence
pathogen microorganisms are classified in different ways according to the contamination status.
Laceration (tearing)
Crush, debris, work accident, traffic accident and so on. as a result of the events due to crushed skin and subcutaneous tissue occurs with the breakdown. Bleeding, tissue and nerve damage may occur due to injury. perforation of hollow organs; organ rupture may be seen in solid organs.
Wounds by Skin Integrity
Incision
Penetration, deep tissue and organs lead, knife, nail, screwdriver, skewers and so on. puncture wounds. The width of the wound entry is small and the depth is high. It is often difficult to detect deep damage. All muscles and blood vessels, as well as the size of the piercing device, may be torn or injured.
