Types of traumatic wounds
Acute wounds refer to injuries caused by sudden physical force, such as accidents, falls or burns that disrupt the skin’s integrity. Effective treatment involves dressing the wound, preventing infection and promoting healing through specialized care.
Our wound care clinic uses evidence-based techniques and advanced therapies to ensure the best possible outcomes for each patient.
Wound types:
- Lacerations: Deep cuts or tears in the skin caused by sharp objects or trauma. Prompt treatment minimizes infection and promotes healing.
- Burns: Damage to the skin caused by heat, chemicals or electricity. Care focuses on managing pain, preventing infection and supporting skin regeneration.
- Abrasions: Superficial injuries to the skin that occur when it rubs against a rough surface. Proper cleaning and dressing prevent infection and aid recovery.
- Pressure sores: Skin and tissue injuries caused by prolonged pressure, often in individuals with limited mobility. Specialized care can prevent worsening and encourage healing
- Surgical wounds: Injuries resulting from surgical procedures, requiring proper management to avoid infection and ensure optimal healing.
Patients should seek emergency medical attention for all of these wounds at urgent care, ER or burn center
Treatments for acute trauma wounds
Our wound care center offers a range of advanced treatments and services designed to facilitate the healing process and reduce the risk of complications, including:
- Debridement: Removal of dead or infected tissue to stimulate healing and reduce the risk of infection.
- Dressing and bandaging: Application of appropriate dressings to protect the wound, maintain a moist environment and promote tissue repair.
- Antibiotic therapy: Use of medications to prevent or treat infections, particularly for wounds at higher risk.
- Skin substitutes: A procedure to apply bioengineered tissue to a stalled wound.
- Negative pressure wound therapy, or NPWT: A specialized treatment that uses controlled suction to promote healing and remove excess fluid from the wound.
