Having a wound that has been created by undergoing an operation can be very sore. Not only will it be sore but also it needs a lot of care to prevent infection that will in turn slow down the healing process. The latest technology is the pulse lavage.
This kind of irrigation is basically just a type of mechanical hydrotherapy that is used under a lot of pressure. They will usually use some normal saline water to debride wounds to try to get rid of the dangerous tissue that is also known as necrotic tissue. They also use the normal saline to irrigate the wound.
One of the first things you can do is pre medicate the wound bed. You can do this by applying some kind of topical analgesic solution or even a local anesthetic cream on the wound about thirty minutes before you actually start the procedure. If the wound is too big, or you do not feel comfortable, putting something on the wound then there is another option.
This kind of treatment cannot be done by just any one. It must be a clinically trained and qualified person that needs to do this. It should also be done in a very clean and sterile area to prevent any further infection. The best is to have it done in a doctor's surgery and or even hospital.
By having it done at a hospital or even at the doctor's surgery, you can be confident that the environment is clean, they know what they are doing, and they will have all the correct equipment to be able to perform these kinds of procedures. There are so many things that one needs to do to prepare both the patient and the wound before you can actually start with the mechanical hydrotherapy. To follow is the five most important tips that the clinically qualified person that will be performing the procedure needs to remember.
Here is what you do to change this and make the concern vanish. You cannot really heat the saline up to a much higher temperature, as the salt in the saline water will then start forming crystals that can in turn also damage the wound bed. The best way you can do this is heating the saline up to normal room temperature.
The higher the pressure of the hydrotherapy the more debridement will take place. If the pressure of the hydrotherapy is very high it might even hurt the patient quite a bit as well. Therefore, the patient's pain threshold should also be taken into account and if it is too sore for the patient you can adjust, the pressure down a little bit to maintain pain control.
The doctor will then be able to give you the antibiotic that you can mix with the saline water and then apply it directly to the wound. By using this very direct approach and minimally invasive approach, you can treat the infection directly and this will also prevent the infection from spreading. They also say that by using this kind of approach you will decrease the bio burden on the top surface of that wound and you will also be able to remove the tissue that was infected what the infection.
