Abstract
It is the responsibility of the physician to exercise proper wound management in the care of so-called minor wounds, and it is important to treat such wounds according to basic surgical principles. The author suggests that the most effective means of establishing tetanus prophylaxis is to immunize the general population with tetanus toxoid, a program that should be the responsibility of the entire medical profession.
