Abstract
In the first installment of this two-part series, we explored the history of open fracture treatment focusing primarily on bacteriology and antibiotic selection/stewardship. In this follow-up segment, we will analyze and summarize the other aspects of open fracture care such as time to debridement, pulsatile lavage, and open wound management (including time to closure)-finishing with summative statements and recommendations based on the current most up-to-date literature. Therapeutic Level V. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
