Wound Types Overview
Understanding the etiology of a wound is the first step in healing. We commonly treat Diabetic Foot Ulcers (neuropathic), Pressure Injuries (ischemic damage from sustained pressure), Venous Stasis Ulcers (venous hypertension), Arterial Ulcers (lack of blood flow), and Surgical Dehiscence (surgical wounds that fail to heal).
Staging Pressure Injuries
Based on NPUAP guidelines, pressure injuries range from Stage 1 (non-blanchable erythema) to Stage 4 (full-thickness tissue loss with exposed bone, tendon, or muscle). Unstageable ulcers are covered by slough or eschar, and Deep Tissue Injuries (DTI) appear as persistent deep red or purple discoloration.
The T.I.M.E. Framework
Our clinicians utilize the T.I.M.E. framework for wound bed preparation: Tissue management (debridement), Infection/Inflammation control, Moisture balance (exudate management), and Edge of wound advancement (cellular therapies to promote epithelialization).
Glossary of Clinical Terms
• Slough: Yellow, dead tissue in the wound bed. • Eschar: Black, dry, necrotic tissue. • Granulation: Red, healthy, bumpy tissue indicating healing. • Epithelialization: The process of new skin growing over the wound. • Debridement: The medical removal of dead, damaged, or infected tissue.
