Has anyone encountered the dressing incorporating into the wound area itself? Working on a case (I am a Legal Nurse Consultant) and the dressing had incorporated itself into the underling tissue and the hardware used in a spinal instrumentation. Second surgeon was trying to revise first surgery and KCI did not have any suggestions as to what to do. What would cause this? Is it only the black dressing that would do this or would the silver also do this?Obviously it was retained somehow! Is there a recommendation for dressing count to be done per KCI or is it just protocol per each hospital or home care units? Any input appreciated Thanks!

I am working with a case that a wound sponge was retained and incorporated itself into the tissue. Investigating it further
