Background and Objectives: A wound is an injury or rupture on the surface of skin, which is caused physically, chemically, mechanically, or by heat.   Case Report: The patient was a one-month-old infant who admitted to the hospital with seizure. After physical examination, it was revealed that the left thigh had an extensive skin necrosis due to burn. After the debridement of the lesion, due ...

it has been claimed that periodontal dressing reduces the risk of wound infection, bleeding and granulation tissue formation and improves tissue healing. this study sought to assess the effect of periodontal dressing on wound healing and patient satisfaction following periodontal flap surgery.this clinical trial was conducted on 33 patients presenting to hamadan university, school of dentistry ...

Active wound dressings play a significant role in burn and chronic wound treatment. In this study, electrospinning process is used to fabricate a novel three-layer active wound dressing based on ε-polycaprolactone (PCL), polyvinylalcohol (PVA), and curcumin (CU) as a biologically active compound. The main purpose for developing such a system is to control wound exudates, which remains a challen...

Background: Wound healing is a complicated process involving the proliferation of the epithelial cells, deposition of granulation tissue as well as recruitment of inflammatory cells. It also is a hot topic of research for trauma, orthopedics and general surgery studies. There are many forms of cells involved in this process. This study aimed to design a tissue-engineered wound dressing consisti...

Wounds are of a variety of types and each category has its own distinctive healing requirements. This realization has spurred the development of a myriad of wound dressings, each with specific characteristics. It is unrealistic to expect a singular dressing to embrace all characteristics that would fulfill generic needs for wound healing. However, each dressing may approach the ideal requiremen...

Wound of entry was painted with tincture of iodine and dressed with sterilized dressing. Wound of exit and its surroundings were cleansed (no fragments of bone were found) and wound was effectively packed. Morphia I of a grain was injected to allay the nervous anxiety. Calcium lactate was given for five days afterwards. Dressing was renewed daily and the wounds healed without any difficulty and...

Antibiotic resistance to microorganisms is one of the major problems faced in the field of wound care in burns patients. Silver nanoparticles have come up as potent antimicrobial agent and are being evaluated in diverse medical applications ranging from silver based dressings to silver coated medical devices. We aimed in present study to test the release of nanosilver from nanosilver wound dres...

The evolution of surgical dressings is traced from 1600 B.C. to A.D. 1944. The availability of an increasing variety of man-made fibres and films from 1944 onwards has stimulated work on wound dressings, and some of the more important contributions, both clinical and experimental, are discussed. The functions of a wound dressing and the properties which the ideal wound dressing should possess a...

OBJECTIVE This randomised controlled clinical trial compared a capillary dressing (Drawtex, now rebranded as Vibriant RCD [Vibriant Technology Services]) with routine practice for exuding wounds greater than 2.5 x 2.5 cm. METHOD The target population was 300 control and 300 test subjects across three sites in the UK, but recruitment difficulties resulted in only 125 patients being evaluable. ...
