Phacoemulsification and thermal wound injury
Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2002The technique of lens nucleus phacoemulsification has revolutionized cataract surgery. However, the production of ultrasound energy is associated with heat generation that can result in damage to ocular tissue, in particular the corneoscleral wound site.

The radiotherapeutic injury – a complex ‘wound’
Radiotherapy and Oncology, 2002Radiotherapeutic normal tissue injury can be viewed as two simultaneously ongoing and interacting processes. The first has many features in common with the healing of traumatic wounds. The second is a set of transient or permanent alterations of cellular and extracellular components within the irradiated volume.

Wound ballistics and blast injuries
Journal of Visceral Surgery, 2017Wounds due to gunshot and explosions, while usually observed during battlefield combat, are no longer an exceptional occurrence in civilian practice in France. The principles of wound ballistics are based on the interaction between the projectile and the human body as well as the transfer of energy from the projectile to tissues.

The crush injury: A high risk wound [PDF]
Journal of the American College of Emergency Physicians, 1976 A standardized experimental impact injury model was developed to produce soft tissue trauma that simulated impact injuries to soft tissue overlying the cranium. An aluminum impact instrument was constructed so as to deliver a measured amount of energy to a finite area of soft tissue over a fixed foundation.

Wound Irrigation in Musculoskeletal Injury
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2001Wound irrigation to remove debris and lessen bacterial contamination is an essential component of open fracture care. However, considerable practice variation exists in the details of technique. Volume is an important factor; increased volume improves wound cleansing to a point, but the optimal volume is unknown.

Puncture Wounds and Needle-Related Injuries
2018People working in the medical field may be exposed to potentially infectious blood while working. The risk of infection from a cut or puncture wound with contaminated instruments depends on several factors. Among the most important are the type of injury, the amount of contaminated material and the quantity of the infectious agent.

Tissue Injury Caused by Wound Disinfectants
The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1967Wound disinfectants of various kinds were tested on microwounds and on different tissues in animals and in man. The analysis was performed by vital microscopy, electron microscopy, and microangiography. It was found that disinfectants, regardless of type, damaged tissue and interfered with tissue function, thereby increasing the injury already existing
