Wound measurement

Published

A pt had a BKA & the suture line is 1cm x 14cm. He then fell and has an area along the suture line that measures 1.5cm x 3.5cm. However, the stitches are intact. How do I document the measurment of the wound? I'm so confused. Thanks for any advice.:confused:

Wound 1 and then wound 2 is what I would do.
