  • Wound debridement instrument
    Patent number: 8679133
    Abstract: A wound debridement instrument for treatment of chronic wounds has an elongate handle with a distal end, a proximal end, and a middle section. An elongate tubular blade body extends distally from the handle distal end and terminates at a distal cutting edge. The tubular body defines a cavity and has a longitudinal axis. The distal cutting edge follows the arc of the tubular body and is angled relative to the longitudinal axis. In some embodiments the tubular body is an incomplete tube, having a longitudinally-extending gap formed therein. Some embodiments may also have a scraping element extending proximally from the handle proximal end.
