Large full-thickness wound over the dorsum in a blue and gold macaw (Ara ararauna). A) A hydrogel sheet is placed on the wound as the primary dressing. Note the loose suture loops placed in the periphery of the wound in order to facilitate the tie-over-bandage. B) Gauze has been used as the secondary bandage layer. Umbilical tape is used to create a tie-over bandage. For additional support a waterproof transparent film dressing was applied.
