Abrasion and crush wounds At first the wound have to be cleaned with tap water. Then the wound is covered with an alginate dressing and covered with an adhesive tape, which can be non-sterile. The next day, the wound is evaluated. After the removal of the dressing, it is washed with tap water. The next steps vary by locations; the facial wound is covered with a hydrocolloid dressing and other wounds need to be covered with multi-layered dressings (i.e. , Plusmoist(TM) ). After the dressings change, the patient removes and changes the dressings everyday. The goal of the treatment is an exudate-free and fully covered epithelialization. Exposure of the wound to sunlight should be avoided, because ultraviolet light enhances pigmentations of the wound scar. A contaminated wound have to be cleaned after local anesthesia is applied. The foreign body must be removed completely. After that, the procedure described as above is performed. Deep wounds with exposure of fat, muscles or bones, are also treated in the same manner.
