Wounds are commonly seen in veterinary practice and may occur secondary to dog or cat bites, penetrating foreign bodies, burn injury, necrotizing fasciitis, and degloving and shear injuries secondary to trauma. Following wound assessment and depending on the cause of injury, aggressive debridement and lavage may be necessary. Although some supplies may be unique to the specific injury, significant overlap exists with regard to the instrumentation and supplies recommended for initial wound management (Box 2.22). Positioning of the patient will be based on the location of the injury.
