Newly Epithelialized:
 Wound bed completely covered with new epithelium [scar tissue].

 No avascular tissue (eschar and/or slough).
 No signs or symptoms of infection
Aligns with the Remodeling / Maturation phase of healing

Fully granulating
 Wound bed filled with granulation [bright, beefy red] tissue to the
level of the surrounding skin.
 No dead space.
 No avascular tissue (eschar and/or slough).
 No signs or symptoms of infection.
 Wound edges are open [attached to wound base].
Aligns with the Proliferative or Granulation phase of Healing

Oasis Healing Status Definitions

Early/partial granulation

 ≥ 25% of the wound bed is covered with granulation [bright, beefy red ]tissue.
 < 25% of the wound bed is covered with avascular tissue (eschar and/or slough).
 No signs or symptoms of infection.
 Wound edges open [attached to wound base]
Inflammatory or proliferative phase of healing depending up amount of slough
Not healing
 Wound with ≥ 25% avascular tissue (eschar and/or slough) OR
Signs/symptoms of infection OR
 Clean but non-granulating [pink, &/or dull, dusky red] wound bed OR
 Closed [not attached to wound base] /hyperkeratotic [calloused] wound edges OR
 Persistent failure to improve despite appropriate comprehensive wound management
