Not necessarily, it will depend on the provider documentation of the wound.

I didn't think so, the ONLY documentation provided is that it was layered closed. No foreign body, etc. Thank you so much for your timely reply. I just wanted to get a second opinion and I thank you SOOO very much for it.
Again.....thank you!
