Wound cleaning

Wound cleaning is a central component of wound care and plays a crucial role in the healing of injuries. Thorough cleaning of the wound is necessary to remove dirt, bacteria, and other foreign bodies that can cause infections. In this text, you will learn why wound cleaning is so important, how it is properly carried out, and which products and manufacturers are our favorites.

Why is wound cleaning so important?

Protection against infections

Open wounds provide microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi with an entry point into the body. Without thorough cleaning of the wound, these microorganisms can cause infections that slow down the healing process and can even lead to serious complications. Effective wound cleaning not only removes visible dirt but also reduces the germ load, which significantly lowers the risk of infection.

Promotion of healing

By thoroughly removing foreign bodies and germs, wound cleaning creates optimal conditions for healing. Clean wound edges and a germ-free wound surface allow the body to promote healing more efficiently. This is especially important in chronic or poorly healing wounds, where cleaning is a crucial factor for healing success.

The proper use of wound cleaning products

Step by step to a clean wound

Wound cleaning usually begins with the removal of visible dirt and foreign bodies from the wound. Sterile cellulose swabs, as contained in the Meditrade cellulose swab box , are suitable for this purpose. These swabs allow gentle yet thorough cleaning of the wound surface without additional risk of infection.

After mechanical cleaning, the wound is treated with an antiseptic solution or wound gel. The Schülke octenisept® wound gel | Pack (1 piece) is a proven product that has a germ-reducing effect and at the same time retains moisture in the wound. This supports natural healing and prevents the wound from drying out, which reduces scarring.

Regular care and control

A one-time wound cleaning is not sufficient in many cases, especially for larger or deeper wounds. The wound should be regularly checked and cleaned again if necessary to ensure that no infection occurs and healing proceeds normally. The use of sterile disposable products is essential to avoid re-infection.
