Wound Care

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a cutting-edge treatment that helps accelerate wound healing by increasing the amount of oxygen your blood can carry. Patients are placed in a pressurized chamber where they breathe pure oxygen, which helps oxygen-rich blood reach damaged tissues more effectively. HBOT is particularly beneficial for diabetic foot ulcers, radiation injuries, and non-healing surgical wounds. At Crisp Regional, this therapy is part of our comprehensive wound care plan for patients needing advanced healing support.

Debridement is the process of removing dead, damaged, or infected tissue from a wound to help healthy tissue grow. Our skilled wound care specialists perform this procedure in-office using safe and effective techniques to reduce infection risk and improve healing outcomes. Debridement is often necessary for chronic wounds, such as pressure ulcers or infected diabetic wounds, and is a key step toward faster recovery.

Total Contact Casting (TCC) is a highly effective method for offloading pressure from wounds, especially in patients with diabetic foot ulcers. This specialized cast redistributes weight across the entire foot and lower leg, reducing pressure on the wound site and allowing it to heal properly. At Crisp Regional, our team uses TCC to treat complex lower extremity wounds and prevent future complications like infections or amputations.

Compression therapy is a proven method used to improve blood flow in the legs, especially for patients suffering from venous ulcers or other circulation-related wounds. By applying controlled pressure through specialized bandages or compression garments, this treatment helps reduce venous pressure, support vein function, and enhance oxygen delivery to the wound area. At Crisp Regional, our team carefully fits and monitors each patient’s compression therapy to ensure comfort and effectiveness throughout the healing process.

Edema Management

Excess fluid buildup, or edema, can delay wound healing and increase the risk of infection. Managing edema is a critical part of wound care, particularly for patients with heart failure, kidney disease, or chronic venous insufficiency. Our wound care specialists use a combination of strategies—such as elevation, medication management, and manual techniques—to reduce swelling and restore proper circulation. Each treatment plan is tailored to the patient’s specific condition to support faster and safer healing.

When wounds are deep or slow to heal, advanced treatments like skin grafts and bioengineered cellular products can promote new tissue growth. We offer a wide variety of innovative options to support healing in even the most complex wounds. These treatments are especially helpful for burns, surgical wounds, and diabetic ulcers. Our team carefully evaluates each patient to determine the most effective graft or cellular solution for their needs.

Healing a chronic wound often requires more than just wound care. That’s why we take an interdisciplinary approach that brings together multiple areas of expertise. Depending on your needs, your care plan may include physical or occupational therapy, infectious disease management, lab work or imaging, nutritional support, pain management, and diabetic education. This team-based model ensures every aspect of your health is considered, so you can heal faster and more completely.
