Assignment: Wound Drainage


Drainage of liquid from an open wound is called exudate; the exudate comes from the serum around the inflamed, damaged tissue created by the mechanical force that created the wound or opening in the skin or mucus membrane. When documenting and assessing a wound, the assessment includes the wound drainage (amount, type, color and odor); this assessment is the only way to determine if the wound is healing or if there are complications.

Below is a chart of various types of wound drainage, give a detailed description of the drainage, what this drainage is telling you and what nursing intervention would be found in the care plan.
