PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Exudate is a bodily fluid that oozes out or is discharged from the tissues during inflammation. The fluid exudes out via the pores or a wound. It may be cloudy or pus-like. It contains exudate cells (e.g. white blood cells), serum, and fibrin.

Detailed explanation-2: -Exudates are the result of either increased vascular permeability secondary to inflammation or vessel injury/leakage (hemorrhagic effusion, chylous effusion). An exudative fluid usually contains both increased protein and an increased nucleated cell count.

Detailed explanation-3: -Types of Wound Exudate There are four types of wound drainage: serous, sanguineous, serosanguinous, and purulent.
