 +Dr. Gordon is particularly  particular about these. You "wick" the wound, not pack it. He likes a 1/4 inch penrose drain, but he understands more practically, that a sliver of a glove is the easier option. Suture it to itself so it can't possibly fall out. ALWAYS get a culture if you would like to stay in this program. If the patient is compliant and able to care for themselves, he wants the patient to soak the hand once an hour for 10-20 minutes. If you are deciding between the OR, it's best to have inflammatory markers (WBC, ESR, CRP) and trend them.
