Why debride?
• Enhance wound assessment
• Decrease potential for
infection
• Necrotic tissue delays
formation of granulation and
epithelial tissue
Debridement
What to debride?
• Slough - moist yellow, tan or
gray non-viable tissue.
• Eschar - dry, leathery
Debridement Methods
Surgical
Mechanical
Autolytic
Enzymatic
Biological
• Scalpel
• Scissors
• Curet
• Laser
Methods
– Irrigation
– Wet-to-dry dressings
– Hydrotherapy
Mechanical Debridement
Considerations
• Aggressive debridement
• Wet-to-dry dressing may be painful
• Trauma to capillaries can cause bleeding
• Skin maceration may occur
• Dressing changes may be time-consuming
Mechanical Debridement
A B
Autolytic Debridement
Considerations
• Less aggressive debridement
• Slower than other methods
• Easy to perform
• Little or no discomfort
• Performed in any setting
• Contraindicated in the presence of infection
Autolytic Debridement
Enzymatic Debridement
Collagenase
• Derived from Clostridium Hystoliticum
• Highly specific for peptide sequence found in
collagen
• Less aggressive debridement
• Site of action – collagen fibers anchoring
necrotic tissue to the wound bed
Papain-Urea
• Proteolytic enzyme derived papaya6
• Urea is added as a denaturant6
• Site of action – cysteine residues on protein8
• Inactive against collagen6
• Aggressive debridement
Papain-Urea Chlorophyllin
• Contains Papain, Urea and Sodium Copper
Chlorophyllin
• Sodium copper chlorophyllin is a chlorophyll
derivative
– Anti-agglutinin
• Results in anti-Inflammatory action
– Reduces odor
Eschar Preparation
• Cross Hatching
• Hydrating agents

Bacterial Burden
Why is an increased Bacterial Burden
Problematic?
• ↑ metabolic load
• Produces endotoxins and proteases
• Stimulates a pro-inflammatory wound
environment
• Wounds don’t heal

Reducing Bacterial Burden
Interventions
• Debridement
• Wound cleansing
• Avoid routine use of antiseptics
– Betadine
– Hydrogen Peroxide
– Acetic Acid
– Dakin’s Solution

Topical Antimicrobials
Cadexomer Iodine
• Iodine is a well known antimicrobial agent
• 0.9% iodine is carried in polysaccharide
beads
• Provides a slow sustained release of
iodine in non-cytotoxic concentrations
• High rate of absorption from exudating
ulcers.
• No documented cases of bacterial
resistance.
