Gangrene By: Dejan, Sataria, TyQuez, and Josh

Causes  Caused by infection or reduced blood supply to tissues.  Dry gangrene – Lack of blood supply causes tissues to die.  Wet gangrene – Tissue is infected with bacteria from an injury. The tissue becomes moist and breaks down. A rare wet type, called gas gangrene, develops from specific bacteria deep inside the body. Gas gangrene can be a result of surgery or trauma.  (

Symptoms  Color changes from white, red, and black.  Shiny appearance to skin.  Foul-smelling, frothy, clear, or watery discharge.  Shedding off of skin.  Severe pain/loss of feeling in affected area.  Fever and chills.  Confusion.  Nausea and vomiting.  Diarrhea  (

Risk Factors  More common in older adults.  Surgery.  Smoking.  Obesity.  Excessive alcohol use.  Drug use. 

Treatment  Antibiotics.  Debridement (surgery cut away dead/dying tissue.(to avoid spreading)).  Supportive care.  Blood thinners.  Amputation.  Hyperbaric (oxygen treatment) 
