What is a bioburden?
A bioburden is a measure of an object's contamination with microorganisms.
Why is bioburden important?
Bioburden is important because it refers to the total number of microorganisms living on a surface that can pose a risk for contamination and infection. Controlling bioburden is crucial in healthcare settings to prevent the spread of infections and ensure patient safety. Monitoring bioburden levels helps in implementing appropriate cleaning and sterilization protocols.
What is bioburden testing?
Bioburden testing will provide the quantity of viable microorganisms in or on a therapeutic, or raw material before sterilization.
What is cfu in bioburden test?
CFU stands for colony forming unit. In a bioburden test, CFU is used to measure the number of viable microorganisms, such as bacteria or yeast, in a given sample. This provides an estimate of the microbial load present and helps in assessing the cleanliness and sterility of a product or environment.

Difference between full thickness and partial thickness debridement?
The depth of the debridement. An selective debridement involves removalof bioburden, slough, crust, and nonviable tissue. An excisional debridement involves utilizing a sharps/surgical instrument in a level of debridement that extends through the subcutaneous tissue. If the depth of the debridement does not extend through the subcutaneous tissue, it is not considered to be an excisional debridement. Typically, an excisional debridement may be supported with wound measurements that are larger post-debridement than pre-debridement.Lisa Bone BSN, CWOCN, CFCN
