Abstract

Wound management is an integral part of surgical specialties. The process of wound healing  has been studied in detail and the management of wound and its myriad treatment options  have been evolving since the advent of scientific advancements. Proper wound assessment is  an important part of wound management. Here we share our experience with the use of Bates[1]  Jenson Wound Assessment Tool in the assessment of wounds.
