A wound dressing (20), comprising: a support layer (22) having first and second surfaces, the support layer defining a central portion (32) and an edge portion (34) surrounding the central portion a along the proximal surface thereof; a carrier layer (26) having first and second surfaces,...
Successful burnwoundcare has several important elements. Typical dailywound careinvolves cleansing,débridement, and dressing of the burn wound. The goals of wound care are to control the growth of microorganisms, reduce the potential for invasivewound infection, prevent the wound from becoming a sourc...
Metallic nanoparticles, in particular gold, silver and zinc, are nowadays increasingly used in wound healing due to their uniques properties such as the intrinsic antibacterial properties, low skin penetration, easy application, less frequent dressing change...
Nearly half a century ago, Paine49 lamented “a perpetual disinclination for doing Gram stains in situations in which the procedure would be helpful.” By streamlining the procedure, he hoped to further “an encouraging reawakening of interest in young physicians in making ...
This study aims to develop a realistic view of creating novel wound dressing materials by making use of 3D printing technology. Wool wax which is known as textile waste is used as an agent material. Various concentrations of wool wax (lanolin) and sodium alginate-based scaffolds were developed ...
This randomized clinical trial evaluates the wound healing efficacy of topical ON101 cream compared with a standard absorbent dressing in the treatment of

Another important property of hydrogels for wound-healing applications is their bioactivity to wound-dressing materials to enhance the healing process. Incorporating the BG particles into hydrogel systems will endow the hydrogel with bioactivity for enhanced angiogenesis and wound healing by releasing...
In conclusion, medical grade, sterilized chitosan powder showed better healing potentiality in comparison to standard dressing material (dermafin) for repair of full thickness skin wounds in rat model. AKNOWLEDGEMENT The authors are highly thankful to the Head, Division of Surgery and Director, Indian...
