The Debridement Continuum: From Steel to Energy to Biology

This presentation explores the evolving continuum of wound debridement and its role in optimizing the wound healing environment. Faculty will discuss sharp, mechanical, ultrasonic, hydrosurgical, enzymatic, autolytic, and biologic debridement strategies, including their impact on biofilm management and wound bed preparation. Attendees will gain an understanding of how to select and sequence debridement interventions based on wound characteristics, patient needs, and treatment goals.
