Selective tissue removal enhances wound recovery and infection control.
Removing necrotic or damaged tissue is a vital step in restoring wound health. Various debridement techniques are utilized to clear non-viable tissue, stimulate healing, and reduce infection risks. Selecting the most suitable method depends on wound type, severity, and patient response. Proper debridement enhances the body’s ability to generate new tissue while protecting surrounding areas. Expert assessment ensures that the process is performed safely and effectively for optimal wound care.
Our services include but are not limited to:
- Biological Debridement – This method utilizes larvae to break down necrotic tissue while preserving healthy skin. Though effective, it is less commonly chosen due to patient preferences.
- Surgical Debridement – A precise procedure where dead tissue is carefully excised to promote wound healing while maintaining surrounding healthy tissue integrity.
- Autolytic Debridement – Best suited for minor, non-infected wounds, this approach relies on specialized dressings that stimulate the body’s natural healing mechanisms to eliminate dead tissue.
- Enzymatic Debridement – This technique involves the application of synthetic enzymes to break down necrotic tissue. While effective, it requires close monitoring to safeguard healthy skin.
- Mechanical Debridement – Involves physical techniques such as hydrotherapy with saline or monofilament debridement pads to effectively clear dead tissue and bacteria from the wound site.
