Coagulum vs. Congealed Surface Exudate

✨ Know the difference to guide safe cleansing & debridement

⸻

🩸 COAGULUM
Organized blood-derived clot material

🔍 Key Characteristics
• Originates from bleeding (overt or microvascular)
• Fibrin-rich clot material
• Dark red, maroon, or brown
• Firm, rubbery, or tightly adherent
• May bind to wound bed or underlying structures

📌 Clinical Context
• Seen after sharp or mechanical debridement
• Common in highly vascular wounds
• More likely in patients on anticoagulants
• Can block granulation & epithelial migration if persistent

⚠️ Management Implications
• Fresh coagulum may be temporarily protective
• Persistent coagulum may require gentle mechanical or sharp removal
• Over-aggressive removal ⛔️ increases bleeding risk

⸻

💧 CONGEALED SURFACE EXUDATE
Dried inflammatory wound fluid

🔍 Key Characteristics
• Originates from inflammation—not bleeding
• Plasma proteins, inflammatory mediators, debris & bacteria
• Yellow, tan, gray, or translucent
• Superficial & loosely adherent
• Lifts or flakes easily with cleansing

📌 Clinical Context
• Common with poor moisture control
• Seen with infrequent dressing changes
• Often overlies viable tissue
• Frequently linked to early biofilm formation 🦠

✅ Management Implications
• Easily removed with cleansing or soft abrasion
• Monofilament debridement effective
• No sharp debridement required
• Signals need for better moisture balance & dressing choice

⸻

🔎 Clinical Takeaway
✔️ Not all surface material is the same
✔️ Identify before you remove
✔️ Match the intervention to the tissue

🦶 All people with diabetes should receive at least one annual foot exam to assess for protective sensation—yet this essential exam is still underused in post-acute care settings. That’s why we’re highlighting it today.

⚠️ Loss of protective sensation (LOPS) is a major contributor to diabetic foot ulcers and heel pressure injuries across all care environments.

🧪 A simple 10-g monofilament test can quickly and objectively identify peripheral neuropathy—allowing clinicians to:
• 🛑 Offload early
• 👀 Monitor more closely
• 📲 Refer sooner

👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️ Nurses can pair monofilament testing with the Braden Scale to strengthen the Sensory Perception component, improving pressure-injury risk identification.

💡 All medical providers should incorporate sensory testing for individuals with diabetes.
Monofilament testing remains one of the simplest, most cost-effective, and clinically meaningful ways to evaluate for LOPS.
If monofilaments aren’t available, another non-invasive sensory test should be used.

📄 Please review the accompanying PDF for step-by-step instructions and clinical tips to help ensure accurate, meaningful testing.
