Comprehensive Assessment and Diagnostics
- Wound Debridement: Removal of dead, infected, or damaged tissue from the wound to promote healing and reduce the risk of infection. This can be surgical, mechanical, enzymatic, or autolytic.
- Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT): Also known as wound vacuum-assisted closure, this involves applying sub-atmospheric pressure to the wound to draw out fluid, reduce swelling, and promote blood flow and new tissue growth.
- Advanced Dressing Selections: Utilizing specialized dressings, such as hydrogels, alginates, foams, and antimicrobial barriers, tailored to the specific type and stage of the wound.
- Application of Bio-Engineered Skin/Tissue Products: Using cellular or tissue-based products to assist in closing chronic wounds that have failed to heal with conventional treatments.

Comprehensive Assessment and Diagnostics
- Initial and Ongoing Wound Evaluation: Thorough examination of the wound, including its size, depth, tissue type, drainage, and signs of infection.
- Vascular Diagnostics: Assessing blood flow to the affected area (e.g., Ankle-Brachial Index or vascular ultrasounds) to identify underlying circulatory issues that may impede healing.
- Infection Management: Culturing the wound to identify pathogens and guide appropriate antibiotic therapy.
