Definitions:

Primary Intention

A method of healing where the wound edges are directly next to each other, allowing for minimal scarring.

Second Intention

Healing by secondary intention involves wound closure by scar formation and contraction rather than primary direct edges.

Full-thickness Wound

A type of injury that penetrates through the dermis and affects deeper tissues, often requiring significant medical treatment.

Antimicrobial Petroleum

A petroleum-based product infused with antimicrobial agents to prevent or inhibit the growth of microorganisms.
