Objective(s) The process of wound healing involves tightly integrated events including inflammation, granulation tissue formation and remodeling. Systemic administration of L-arginine promotes wound healing but its global side effects are undesirable. To confine the action of L-arginine at the site of injury, we tested the effects of local administration of L-arginine on the healing of excisio...

background the cause of death in burn patients after 48 hours of hospitalization has been reported to be bacterial infections. recently, due to the compounds accelerating the healing process and the intense reduction of treatment side effects, medicinal plants are used to cure burn wound infections. this study aims to investigate the medicinal effect of the ethanolic extract of scrophularia str...

According to the National Institutes of Health and the Center for Disease and Prevention, it is estimated that 65 to 80 percent of the human infectious are caused by biofilms. Antibiotics and drainage of purulent discharge are the main treatment measures. But in chronic infections sometimes these findings are not easy to recognize. Biofilm is an extracellular polymeric conglomeration generally ...

Invasive fungal infection in burn injury is caused by inoculation of fungal spore from patient skin, respiratory tract or from care giver. The risk factors for acquiring fungal infection in burns include age of burns, total burn size, full thickness burns, inhalational injury, prolonged hospital stay, late surgical excision, open dressing, central venous catheters, antibiotics, steroid treatmen...

The different types of acute skin wounds, including surgically created wounds, partial thickness injuries, burns, and traumatic wound, involve significant tissue loss and wound healing duration which could take time. Although the wound healing process varies among the different types of wounds, there are more similarities than differences between these healing process (Monaco and Lawrence, 2003...

Background Burn is still a majordevastating condition in emergency medicine departments among both genders and all age groups in all developed and developing countries, leading to physical, psychological scars and economical burden. The present study aimed to determine the healing effect of topical treatment with Arnebia euchroma on second-degree burn wound in rats. Methods Fifty rats were ...

Wound repair is a natural reaction to injury, which results in restoration of tissue integrity. In this study the healing effect of green tea extract formulation was investigated on open skin wound of rabbit. Active ingredients were extracted from green tea using water and glycerin (4:1) vehicle. Three cream formulations containing 2, 5 and 10% of green tea extract were prepared in the base. A ...
