Effect of Pulsating Water Jet Lavage on Radioactive Contaminated Wounds

MARVIN F. GROWER 1 and SURINDAR N. BHASKAR 1

1 Dental Corps, United States Army Institute of Dental Research, Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Washington, DC 20012, USA

A radioisotope of zinc was introduced into facial wounds of rats to stimulate natural contamination. The quantitative effects of a bulb syringe, single pulsed water jet, and a multiple pulsed water jet on decontamination of the wounds were determined by counting the radioactivity that remained in the wounds after treatment. The water jet devices were shown statistically to reduce contamination more than the bulb syringe.
