CHRONIC WOUND CARE for SURGICAL WOUNDS
Surgical Wounds
A surgical wound is a cut or incision in the skin that is usually made by a scalpel during surgery. Surgical wounds vary greatly in size. They are usually closed with sutures, but are sometimes left open to heal.
Surgical wounds develop when there is damage to the blood supply or care is not given to the surgical wounds properly.
Surgical wounds that have become chronic appear swollen, hot and reddish.
Surgical wounds can reopen.

Amniotic membranes, when used as a biological dressing, helps wound healing by acting as a foundation for re-growth of soft tissue.
