12th November 2009The Skills of Sharp Debridement
Spectrecom was recently asked to produce a 10-minute training video for the prestigious Florence Nightingale School of Nursing and Midwifery at King's College, London.
The film - a short excerpt of which can be viewed by clicking the image above - was commissioned to demonstrate to King's medical students how to perform a technique known as wound "debridement", which is the "medical removal of a patient's dead, damaged, or infected tissue to improve the healing potential of the remaining healthy tissue".
Sounds a little gruesome doesn't it?
Well, if you're faint-hearted, don't worry ... the clip above is just the introduction.
