Wound

A wound is a type of injury which happens relatively quickly in which skin is torn, cut, or punctured (an open wound), or where blunt force trauma causes a contusion (a closed wound). In pathology, it specifically refers to a sharp injury which damages the dermis of the skin.

Classification

According to level of contamination a wound can be classified as

  • Clean wound, a wound made under sterile conditions where there are no organisms present in the wound and the wound is likely to heal without complications.
  • Contaminated wound, where the wound is as a result of accidental injury where there are pathogenic organisms and foreign bodies in the wound.
  • Infected wound, where the wound has pathogenic organisms present and multiplying showing clinical signs of infection, where it looks yellow, oozing pus, having pain and redness.
  • Colonized wound, where the wound is a chronic one and there are a number of organisms present and very difficult to heal (i.e. a bedsore).
  • Open

    Open wounds can be classified according to the object that caused the wound. The types of open wound are:

    We Want a Rock

    by: They Might Be Giants

    Where was I? I forgot
    The point that I was making
    I said if I was smart that I would
    Save up for a piece of string
    and a rock to wind the string around
    Everybody wants a rock
    To wind a piece of string around
    Throw the crib door wide
    Let the people crawl inside
    Someone in this town
    Is trying to burn their playhouse down
    They want to stop the ones who want
    A rock to wind a string around
    But everybody wants a rock
    To wind a piece of string around
    If I were a carpenter I'd
    Hammer on my piglet
    I'd collect the seven dollars and I'd
    Buy a big prosthetic forehead
    And wear it on my real head
    Everybody wants prosthetic
    Foreheads on their real heads
    Throw the crib door wide
    Let the foreheads come inside
    Someone in this town
    Is trying to burn the foreheads down
    They want to stop the ones who want
    Prosthetic foreheads on their heads
