Category 1 | Category 2 | Category 3 |
---|---|---|
Without tissue loss: | Two sub categories: | Full thickness skin loss: |
In a linear or flap type skin tear. The dermis and epidermis have been pulled apart, as if an incision had been made. | Scant = less than 25% of the epidermal flap lost. | The epidermal flap or tissue is absent in the type of skin tear. |
Moderate = more than 25% of the epidermal flap lost. | ||
