A skin tear is a specific type of laceration that most often affects older adults, in which friction alone or friction plus shear separates skin layers.
A laceration or cut refers to a skin wound. Unlike an abrasion, none of the skin is missing. A cut is typically thought of as a wound caused by a sharp object, like a shard of glass. Lacerations tend to be caused by blunt trauma.
Category 1b: A skin tear where the edges can be realigned to the normal anatomical position. (without undue stretching) and the skin or flap color is pale, dusky or darkened. Category 1 should be coded as superficial wounds.
The most commonly used tool for skin tear classification is the ISTAP system (See ISTAP skin tear classification.) Using this system, you can categorize skin tears based on wound characteristics, including the presence and condition of the skin flap.
