debridement-surgical removal of foreign material and dead tissue from a wound in order to prevent infection and promote healing.
This can be harmful to the bodyâs ability to recover and develop new skin, so debridement may be necessary to remove that dead material. In this way, debridement is essential for preparing the wound bed to promote speedy and efficient healing. Debridement promotes the wound healing process in a variety of ways. Not only does dead skin inhibit the development of healthy new tissue, but it makes the affected area more susceptible to infection.
