Complete Excision of Non-Viable Tissue


This video demonstrates the process of the excision of affected tissue.

  • Assess the depth of the wound
  • Prepare wound bed using standard methods to ensure wound is free of debris and necrotic tissue. Regardless of how well the wound has been prepared and how healthy it looks, INTEGRA™ Bilayer Matrix Wound Dressing must not be placed on an existing wound surface. The entire existing wound must be completely excised or surgically debrided to ensure the wound bed and edges contain viable tissue.
  • INTEGRA™ Bilayer Matrix Wound Dressing will not "take" to non-viable tissue
