Cleaning Surgical Wounds Hydrogen Peroxide

On Cleaning Surgical Wounds with Hydrogen Peroxide
In ancient times, physicians have explored methods for cleaning surgical wounds. Since modern times, hydrogen peroxide has been used to clean surgical wounds and has gradually become important in the medical community.

Hydrogen peroxide, the chemical name hydrogen peroxide, has strong oxidizing properties. When it is applied to a surgical wound, it meets the tissue fluid and enzymes at the wound, quickly decomposes and releases new oxygen. This new oxygen has strong bactericidal power, can kill many bacteria, viruses and other pathogenic microorganisms, and is effective in preventing wound infection.

Looking at its cleaning mechanism, the bubbles produced by the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide can gently initialize the wound, so that the foreign bodies, blood clots and necrotic tissues in the wound can be loosened and separated, which is easy to remove, making the wound cleaner and conducive to subsequent healing.

However, the use of hydrogen peroxide to clean surgical wounds also requires caution. If the concentration is not appropriate, although the high concentration of hydrogen peroxide has strong bactericidal power, it is easy to damage normal tissue cells and delay wound healing. And frequent use may cause changes in the local microenvironment of the wound and affect tissue repair. Therefore, when doctors use it, they must accurately control the concentration and frequency of use of hydrogen peroxide according to the specific circumstances of the wound, such as the depth of the wound and the degree of pollution.

In today's medical field, the method of cleaning surgical wounds with hydrogen peroxide not only emphasizes its advantages but also understands its limitations. With a scientific attitude and rational use, it is the unremitting pursuit of doctors to strive to heal patients' wounds and create optimal conditions.
