1 Surgical Wounds & Incisions A Comprehensive Review Assessment & Management Alex Khan APRN ACNS-BC MSN CWCN CFCN WCN-C Advanced Practice Nurse / Adult Clinical Nurse Specialist 1
2 Objectives Understand pathophysiology of the surgical wounds Understand the types of surgical closure Understand cascade of infection Understand management strategies Identify best practices in home care setting for the management of patients with surgical wounds & incisions 2
3 Statistics There are more than 110 million surgical incisions every year, which require some wound management treatment. In the U.S., >40 million inpatient surgical procedures occur each year; 2-5% are complicated by surgical site infection. SSIs are the second most common nosocomial infections, Costing $400- $2,600 per infection (TOTAL: $130-$845 million/year) 3
4 Definition Wounds & Incisions resulting from a surgical procedure are called Surgical Wounds & Incision 4
5 Infected Surgical Wound 5
6 Infected Surgical Wound 6
7 Infected Surgical Wound 7
8 Infected Surgical Wound 8
9 Phases of Wound Healing 9
10 Surgical Wound 10
11 Inflammation The inflammatory phase commences as soon as tissue integrity is disrupted by injury; this begins the coagulation cascade to limit bleeding. Duration 0 14 days In wounds closed by primary intention, lasts 4 days. Characterized by erythema, edema and pain. 11
12 Inflammation 12
13 Inflammation 13
14 Proliferation Phase The proliferative phase begins as the cells that migrate to the site of injury, such as fibroblasts, epithelial cells, and vascular endothelial cells Fibroblast proliferation stimulated by macrophage-released growth factors Granulation tissue and neo-vascularization Duration 4 42 days 14
15 Proliferation Phase 15
16 Maturation / Remodeling Phase Duration 24 days 18 month Collagen degradation, and collagen remodeling Scar Tissue formation Realignment of collagen fibers Tensile strength 80% 16
17 Maturation / Remodeling Phase 17
18 Types of Wound Healing Primary Intention Describes a wound closed by approximation of wound margins or by placement of a graft or flap, or wounds created and closed in the operating room 18
19 Types of Wound Healing 19
20 Types of Wound Healing Secondary Intention Describes a wound left open and allowed to close by granulation, contraction and epithelialization. 20
21 Types of Wound Healing 21
22 Types of Wound Healing Tertiary Intention Delayed closure or partial closure. Often used for infected wounds where bacterial count contraindicates primary closure. Wound edges are approximated within 3-4 days and tensile strength develops as with primary closure 22
23 Types of Wound Healing 23
24 Risk Factors Comorbidities Uncontrolled Diabetes mellitus, Cancer, Renal disease, Liver disease, Obesity, weakened immune system. Age of the patient Malnutrition Tobacco use Inappropriate use of dressings Systemic Steroid use 24
25 Wound Infection CONTAMINATION COLONIZATION CRITICAL COLONIZATION 25
26 Wound Infection Signs & Symptoms Wound is painful, even though there is no visible evidence (early sign) High or low temperature, low blood pressure, or a fast heart rate Discharge & odor from the wound Increased swelling, redness, warmth Wounds that do not improve with treatment 26
27 Wound Infection Signs & Symptoms 27
28 Topical Antimicrobials Topical Silver Dressings Cadexomer Iodine Gel Antimicrobial Cleanser Topical Antibiotics 28
29 Conclusion Appropriate dressing selection to manage the drainage is vital. No WET TO DRY DRESSING ORDERS. Keeping the surgical site clean and dry is the goal. Weekly follow ups to assess & monitor, until the wound is completely healed. Early intervention to prevent possible infection. Multidisciplinary approach when dealing with difficult wounds. Infectious disease specialist, Wound care nurse and Physical therapist. 29
