Debridement (Removal of Unhealthy Tissue)
Debridement is a procedure that removes damaged skin to help the body heal a chronic wound, acute injury, or burn. Several layers of skin surrounding a chronic wound can include foreign debris, dead (necrotic) tissue, infected tissue, and calloused (hyperkeratotic) skin. If left untreated, these damaged skin layers can spread infection to other parts of the body and may aggravate the wound and delay its healing.
Debriding (removing) this damaged and diseased skin encourages the growth of healthy new tissue, impeding infection by triggering the body's natural cycle of tissue renewal. For this reason, debridement functions both as a wound treatment and as a preventative measure against more complex consequences of infected skin, such as sepsis and amputation. In some circumstances, debridement provides additional aesthetic benefits such as decreased scarring. Debridement also permits doctors to retrieve tissue samples for testing, such as to determine whether patients need antibiotic treatment.
Wounds that frequently require debridement include:
Debridement can be performed either surgically or nonsurgically; some methods are less invasive than others. Doctors select the appropriate debridement technique by considering the location, cause, and size of a patient's wound and may also weigh the patient's overall wellbeing, age, and risk of infection.
Surgical debridement is performed by cutting away dead, infected, and hyperkeratotic skin with a surgical scalpel. For deep wounds that tear away the skin and go into the muscle, skin from another region of a patient's body may be grafted onto the wound, which may then be periodically assessed and rebandaged until fully healed.
Non-surgical debridement is achieved with water or a dissolvent gel. Water softens the damaged skin and affected tissue, allowing doctors to remove it with wet-to-dry dressing. When wet tissue dries, it adheres to the dry dressing or bandage and comes off when the dressing is pulled away. In contrast, dissolvent gel deconstructs tissue, which can be cleaned off of the wound. Nonsurgical debridement is less invasive than surgical techniques; however, it can entail repeat treatments, slowing wound recovery.
While the prospect of stripping away skin may seem jarring, debridement can be critical to the treatment and healing of wounds which cannot not heal independently.
Hip Fracture Surgery
Hip fracture surgery is performed to treat a broken hip. Fractures occur more easily with aging because bones become thinner and weaker over time. As a result, older individuals are most susceptible to hip fractures, which often occur as the result of falls.
Hip fractures typically occur on the ball of the hip joint, called the femoral head. Types of hip ball fractures include:
Hip fractures are painful and may make it difficult to stand or walk. If left untreated, patients may be confined to bed rest, which can itself lead to further complications, including muscle weakening, pneumonia, and bedsores. Treatment for hip fractures aims to relieve pain and allow patients to return to their normal routines.
Non-surgical treatment of hip fractures, called closed reductionxf, requires no incisions. A closed reduction is typically performed for patients under five, those who cannot undergo surgery due to illness, and for fractures that are stable and may heal within days. Most often, surgery is recommended. Hip fracture surgery often entails one of the following procedures:
Following surgery, patients may stay in the hospital for a few days or weeks. Additionally, patients may need crutches or a walker after their procedure, and their doctor may recommend limiting movement to avoid another hip injury. Physical therapy can help patients to avoid complications and return to normal activity.
Shoulder Arthritis
Shoulder arthritis is a very common condition that causes pain, stiffness, or a grinding sensation in the shoulder. Some patients may hear a clicking or popping noise, and all symptoms are more noticeable when moving. Arthritis occurs when the cartilage that cushions joints becomes damaged.
Normally, when two bones come together inside a joint, they are separated by a layer of tough, smooth cartilage. The cartilage allows the bones to glide across each other, which makes movement easier. Cartilage can be damaged by an injury, by an illness such as rheumatoid arthritis, or by simple wear and tear (osteoarthritis). In the shoulder, the two joints most commonly affected are the AC joint (where the shoulder blade and collarbone connect at the outside edge of the shoulder), and the glenohumeral joint (where the arm bone meets the shoulder blade).
Treatment for shoulder arthritis may include:
Surgical treatments include the removal of inflamed tissue and joint reconstruction. The type of arthritis and severity of the damage will determine which treatment is most appropriate.
