Abstract

Wound Bed Preparation (WBP) without debridement is not possible. Debridement has to be radical but without harming the normal tissue.

This article highlights the application of radiofrequency debridement not only in debriding the necrotic tissue but also its role in stimulating the wound bed for wound bed preparation.
