How do surgical wounds usually heal?

yaroslaw [1]3 years ago

Primary intention-  wound healing with skin edges that are approximated, risk of infection is low, healing occurs quickly with minimal scar formation as long as infection and secondary breakdown is prevented (similar to a surgical wound)   Most common = Acute wounds; minimal tissue loss = surgical wounds and superficial partial thickness (abrasions/blisters)

Secondary Intention  This type of healing is in wounds with extensive tissue loss/infection & wounds in which the edges cannot be approximated (closed).  Would is left open and granulation tissue gradually fills in the deficit. Susceptible to infection. Wet to dry dressings. Ex: Pressure Ulcer  Associated w/ pathology = diabetes, ischemia, pressure damage in inflammation  (Neuropathic, arterial, venous, full thickness, chronic inflammation)  Require ongoing wound care - larger scares

Which of these people is more likely to experience stress?
pochemuha
I think that Mr Green would the the most likely. He never says no, and his friends are counting on him to always say yes, which can cause stress and pressure. Especially if he doesn’t want to say yes, but he has to because of his reputation. This may cause him to do things for his friends that maybe he won’t want to do
