This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

New Reporting Module for Diving and Parachuting Released
The new Dive Jump Reporting System (DJRS) Jump module, released on February 9th, makes things
easier for reporting commands. It captures jump activity via the creation and use of a manifest. Using this
data, the Naval Safety Center will be able to extract monthly activity reports for Navy and Marine Corps
commands, as well as a required DoD report. Once fully integrated, commands will no longer have to
submit these monthly activity reports.
DJRS offers units several added benefits, including multiple report-query options and maintenance of
jumper qualifications and currencies. Ultimately, DJRS is designed to streamline unit workload by
merging jump manifesting and jump activity reporting into one function.
To date, approximately 20% of Navy and Marine Corps parachute
program units have been incorporated into the DJRS system. This
time-intensive process requires creating and/or verifying
approximately 7,000 individual personnel profiles attached to
approximately 55 commands. Since its release date, 111 parachute
jumps have been recorded in the system.
Users are encouraged to review the six DJRS training modules located
on the Naval Safety Center website at
http://www.public.navy.mil/navsafecen/Pages/ashore/Investigations_Home/Parachuting/DJRS.aspx. If
you have questions, call (757) 444-3520, Ext. 6044, and ask for DJRS jump support. Or submit the

Motorcycle Training—Closing the Training Gap
Department of the Navy motorcycle fatalities have been reduced by 40 percent in the last two years. This
is a significant fatality reduction that riders and leaders should be proud of. However, resting on our
laurels is not yet in order. In FY10, 17 of 22 motorcycle fatalities occurred on sportbikes and 14 of those 17
riders (82%) had not received their required MSRC training.
As leaders and fellow riders, this summer’s goal is to reach that person who has high potential to be the
next “statistic.” Let’s identify our noncompliant sport-bike riders and get them into the next available
MSRC. We need to make sure every rider has the life-saving knowledge taught in the class. There are still
7,688 sportbike riders who are not fully trained.
I challenge each of you to do your part to close this training gap. Work
through your local safety office to schedule MSRC training within the 60
days of BRC completion. Sooner is better than later. Today’s sport-bikes are
performance machines and deadly in untrained hands. Riders can register
for training through ESAMS at www.navymotorcyclerider.com or by calling
their local safety office.

5. Hearing Loss—We’ve Heard It Before
Noise is not a new occupational health hazard. Since the military mechanized and introduced gun
powder, noise is a constant threat to Marines, Sailors and Soldiers. Short-term problems usually go away
within a few minutes or hours after leaving the noise. Repeated exposures, however, lead to permanent,
incurable hearing loss.
DoD and DoN policies require controlling hazardous noise in the workplace and during field training
whenever possible. Detailed programs are in place, but hearing protection devices remain the most
common defense against hazardous noise exposures. Starting with SECNAV’s memorandum, “Global War
on Noise” of 8 June 2007, and augmented by recent audits and a special interest item of the Naval
Inspector General, DoN has increased attention and awareness of this occupational health hazard.
A recent first step: Marine Corps commands are now able to track status of audiometric tests for their
unit. GENADMIN 011328Z Dec 09 [Marine Corps Safety Program, Medical Readiness Reporting System
(MRRS) and Hearing Readiness] has been updated with a hearing-conservation report for identifying
Marines who are exposed to hazardous noise. Commanders desiring MRRS access should contact their
command medical representative for guidance on how to do so.
MRAP Mishap Analysis Identifies Inexperience, Confusion About “Side Slope”
United States Marine Corps MRAP mishaps continue to rise, likely due to the increasing number of
vehicles available to units currently forward deployed. An analysis was conducted to identify common
trends that may assist deployed units (and units preparing to deploy) to develop risk-mitigation
strategies. Between 2008 and 2010 the USMC reported 78 Class A, B, and C mishaps in WESS, which
resulted in 8 deaths/permanent partial disabilities, 360 days lost, and $3.4M in damage to government
property. The 78 reported mishaps included 15 collisions, 13 crush incidents, 11 rollovers, 11 falls, 7 not
wearing seatbelts, 7 maintenance-related, and 7 shock/fire/negligent discharges.
Even though rollovers account for only 14 percent of USMC MRAP mishaps,
receive the most scrutiny because they account for all of the USMC MRAP
deaths and permanent disabilities. Some of these incidents could be due to
some confusion among MRAP operators and trainers regarding the side slope
that the MRAP is capable of transiting. All MRAP Technical Manuals state that
the vehicle can transit a 30% slope (17 degrees), but some operators have
mistakenly translated the 30% side-slope to be equivalent to 30 degrees
(57.5%), which is almost twice the side-slope that the MRAP is capable of operating on.
Most MRAP mishaps can be attributed to a lack of experience on the driver's part, lack of experience in
the operating area, lack of training or a combination of the three. The MRAP Joint Program Office (JPO)
conducted an independent analysis and found that 76% of all MRAP incidents occur with drivers who
have less than three months experience behind the wheel. The MRAP JPO noted that training or a lack
there of is noted in the narrative as a contributing factor 60% of the time for all Class A and B mishaps.
The MRAP JPO is currently working on several engineering initiatives to reduce the number of rollovers
DoD-wide. These initiatives include electronic stability control, hydraulic anti-roll bar, road-edge
detection systems, and a rollover alert device. However, supervision at the lowest level, effective training,
and enforcement of existing policies and procedures will remain key components in preventing MRAP
mishaps.

6. Two Focus Issues for April
April is National Distracted Driving Awareness Month, which makes it a perfect time to
identify and modify any behaviors that distract from the business of driving. Here’s an
example from a couple weeks ago, just down the street from the Naval Safety Center:
three Sailors were hit in a crosswalk by a driver who was talking on a cellphone, looking
left and turning right. All three had to be taken to the hospital, but none were seriously
injured.
Everyone should learn to recognize the three types of distraction—visual, manual and mental—and learn
intervention techniques. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the two age
groups most prone to distracted driving are drivers under age 20 and those between the ages of 20 and
29. Please ensure all military personnel age 25 and under have complied with the requirement to
complete a four-hour driver-safety course. And take advantage of the distracted-driving awareness kit
available on our website, which offers Plan of the Day reminders, presentations, tips for General Military
Training, and more.
A second and equally important focus for the month of April is sexual assault, a corrosive challenge that
degrades mission readiness, has wide-ranging negative effects for all concerned, and interferes with our
ability to work as a team. This may not seem like a “safety” issue, but it is a mission degrader just like any
of our other mishaps. We are assembling and sharing resources to help teach personnel how to manage
the risk and recognize, avoid and prevent this crime. The Navy’s primary source of information is the
Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Office at http://www.sapr.mil.
Safety Success Stories
The Naval Safety Center coordinated the development of a record number of success stories over the past few
months. Six summarize the achievements of those who won the CNO or SECNAV Safety awards, two recognize
two activities who achieved OSHA VPP Star recognition, and one highlights the benefits of an ergonomics cart
caddy. Links are at
http://www.public.navy.mil/navsafecen/Pages/osh/Success_Stories/safety_success_stories_home.aspx.
Contractor Safety
Contractor safety is a growing area of importance to the Navy safety, legal, contracts, maritime, and facilities
communities. Ensuring that contractors on our Naval bases are operating safely is required by the OSHA VPP
program. Furthermore, the Navy pays indirectly for contractor mishaps, so there is an added financial interest
to improve the safety-related aspects of contracts. NSC led a contractor safety course at the DoD Safety
Professional Development conference in March 11. Slides from this session are at
http://www.public.navy.mil/navsafecen/Pages/osh/ShoreOSH/contractor_safety.aspx. Also, NAVFAC has
established excellent proactive construction safety contractor efforts.

7. OSHA Citations
There were 12 OSHA citations for the first quarter of FY11 in the hazard areas of emergency response,
hazardous-material storage, fire protection, welding, and electrical. It is important for all industrial and
production activities to review and learn from these citations to ensure similar problems do not persist. Details
are available at http://www.public.navy.mil/navsafecen/Pages/osh/SOH_Metrics/OSHACitations.aspx.

As I wrap up another quarterly report, I fully realize that this might be my final one. Therefore, I’d like to
take this opportunity to thank each and every member of the collective Safety Team for your energy, drive,
innovative ideas and commitment to eliminate preventable mishaps. You have done an extraordinary job
building and sustaining safety programs throughout the Navy and Marine Corps to move us towards
world-class safety status. Everyone involved in the process should feel a true sense of accomplishment
when we compare today’s posture and mishap rates with those of several years ago.
Without question, there are Sailors and Marines who are alive today… safe and sound, thanks to programs
we have launched and overseen. Our personnel today are making better decisions and managing risk
more skillfully than ever before. The obvious results include increased readiness, preserved resources, and
a sharper focus on the mission at hand with fewer painful and costly distractions from preventable
mishaps.
Despite many laudable accomplishments—such as 2010 being the safest year in naval aviation history and
other positive mishap trends—our job is clearly not done. As we continue to operate in an increasingly
challenging geo-strategic world, we will face unanticipated risks and hazards. Enduring fiscal constraints
will further refine our focus on preserving our allocated resources. In short, this is “the perfect storm” for
a dynamic and vibrant safety program, fully permeating our naval enterprise and making a difference. As
always, new safety ideas from the fleet, active two-way communications and engaged leadership will be
key components to our Navy and Marine Corps team’s success going forward.
The Naval Safety Center team is firmly engaged, addressing the aforementioned challenges. We thank you
for your past support and look forward to your future contributions to keep us marching towards the
“world class safety” status that befits the world’s finest maritime power.
