A knife wound is an example of a puncture wound.
A contusion is a closed wound caused by a blow to the body by a blunt object, resulting in a bruise.
A clean wound is a wound that contains no pathogenic organisms, such as a closed surgical wound that does not enter the GI, respiratory, or genitourinary (GU) system.
A primary intention wound is a wound resulting from therapy, such as a surgical incision.
