Debridement is the process of removing dead (necrotic) tissue or foreign material from and around a wound to expose healthy tissue. An open wound or ulcer cannot be properly evaluated until the dead tissue or foreign matter is removed. Wounds that contain necrotic and ischemic tissue take longer to close and heal. This is because necrotic tissue provides an ideal growth medium for bacteria, especially for Bacteroides and Clostridium perfringens that causes the gas gangrene so feared in military medical practice. Though a wound may not necessarily be infected, the bacteria can cause inflammation and strain the body's ability to fight infection. Surgical debridement of wounds is also used to treat pockets of pus called abscesses. Abscesses can develop into a general infection that may invade the bloodstream and lead to amputation and even death. Burned tissue exposed to corrosive substances tends to form a hard black crust, called an eschar, while deeper tissue remains moist and white, yellow and soft, or flimsy and inflamed.

Surgical debridement of wounds uses a scalpel, scissors, or other instrument to cut necrotic tissue from a wound. It is the quickest and most efficient method of debridement. It is the preferred method if there is rapidly developing inflammation of the body's connective tissues (cellulitis) or a more generalized alized infection (sepsis) that has entered the bloodstream. The physician starts the process of Surgical debridement of wounds by flushing the area with a saline solution, and then applies a topical anesthetic or antalgic gel to the edges of the wound to minimize pain. Using forceps to grip the dead tissue, the physician cuts it away bit by bit with a scalpel or scissors. Sometimes it is necessary to leave some dead tissue behind rather than disturb living tissue. The physician may repeat the process again at another session.
