EDEMA, DISORDERS
Simultaneous treatment and control of core disorders in both groups should be prioritized during the therapeutic process. The dressing may be changed to a normal dressing if any incision is made, during the closed negative pressure drainage process; the incision granulation tissue is fresh, flat, and granular; the granulation does not have edema; and the wound secretion is negative in bacterial culture. Hypertonic saline gauze and moist compression can be used to minimize tissue edema near the incision base. If the granulation tissue remains flat and new throughout the treatment procedure and the incision is still deep, the wound should be sutured as soon as possible to accelerate healing.
