The technique for rinsing varies depending on the area being treated:
Wound Rinsing: Use a gentle stream of saline solution to flush out debris, taking care not to cause additional trauma to the wound. Oral Rinsing: Swish the fluid around the mouth and spit it out, or use a suction device for patients unable to spit. Eye Rinsing: Tilt the head to the side and pour the saline solution over the eye, allowing it to flow out and carry away contaminants.
