Platelet‐rich plasma versus platelet‐poor plasma in the management of chronic diabetic foot ulcers: a comparative studyInternational Wound Journal - Tập 8 Số 3 - Trang 307-312 - 2011

Non healing diabetic foot ulcers and the resulting potential amputations present significant costs to the health care system and reduce patient quality of life. The goal of diabetic foot ulcer treatment is to obtain wound closure as expeditiously as possible. The use of platelet‐rich plasma (PRP) to enhance wound healing has increased dramatically over the last decade. However, controversi...... hiện toàn bộ
Prolonged stay in the emergency department is an independent risk factor for hospital‐acquired pressure ulcerInternational Wound Journal - Tập 17 Số 2 - Trang 259-267 - 2020

AbstractIt is not easy to ensure optimal prevention of hospital‐acquired pressure ulcer (HAPU) in crowded emergency departments (EDs). We hypothesised that a prolonged ED length of stay (LOS) is associated with an increased risk of HAPU. This is a single‐centre observational study. Prospectively collected HAPU surveillance data were analysed. Adult (aged ... hiện toàn bộ
Autologous bone marrow‐derived cells with placental extract for healing excisional cutaneous wounds in animal modelInternational Wound Journal - Tập 10 Số 2 - Trang 167-176 - 2013
Ashok Akela, Samit Kumar Nandi, Partha Das, Dibyajyoti Banerjee, Subhasis Roy, Uttam Datta
Topical wound‐healing potential of autologous bone marrow‐derived nucleated cells along with placental extract was evaluated in comparison with buffy coat of autologous blood on full‐thickness cutaneous wounds in the thoracolumbar region of 15 clinically healthy New Zealand rabbits. Three wounds of 2 × 2 cm, one on the right side of the body and two on the left side of the midline were cre...... hiện toàn bộ
Evaluation of autologous bone marrow in wound healing in animal model: a possible application of autologous stem cellsInternational Wound Journal - Tập 9 Số 5 - Trang 505-516 - 2012
Ashok Akela, Samit Kumar Nandi, Dibyajyoti Banerjee, Partha Das, Subhasis Roy, Siddhartha Narayan Joardar, Mohan Mandal, Pradip Kumar Das, Nilu Pradhan
A study was conducted to evaluate the potential of autologous bone marrow‐derived cells in comparison with buffy coat of autologous blood for rapid cutaneous wound healing in rabbit model. Three square full‐thickness skin excisional wounds were created in 15 selected experimental animals (rabbit) divided randomly into three groups. The wound was treated with autologous bone marrow cells in...... hiện toàn bộ
The use of negative pressure therapy and hyaluronic acid for the management of post‐traumatic lower limb injuryInternational Wound Journal - Tập 10 Số 5 - Trang 534-538 - 2013

Management of severe limb trauma continues to challenge surgeons. Suitable treatment should be individualised for each patient, taking into consideration not only the wound extremity but also the associated injuries, age and socioeconomic status of the patient with the goal to recover function and to improve patient quality of life. The aim of this report is to present a severe degloving m...... hiện toàn bộ
Diabetic foot infections: stepwise medical and surgical managementInternational Wound Journal - Tập 1 Số 2 - Trang 123-132 - 2004
David G. Armstrong, Benjamin A. Lipsky
AbstractFoot complications are common among diabetic patients; foot ulcers are among the more serious consequences. These ulcers frequently become infected, with potentially disastrous progression to deeper spaces and tissues. If not treated promptly and appropriately, diabetic foot infections can become incurable or even lead to septic gangrene, which may require ...... hiện toàn bộ
A simple and effective approach for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers with different Wagner gradesInternational Wound Journal - Tập 7 Số 3 - Trang 153-158 - 2010
Basavraj Nagoba, Rajan C Gandhi, Bharat Wadher, Arunkumar Rao, Amol Hartalkar, Sohan P Selkar
Diabetic foot infections are the major cause of morbidity. Infection is the common sequel of diabetic foot ulceration that leads to delayed wound healing. These infections are difficult to control. If not addressed well in time, they may lead to amputation of foot. An attempt has been made to develop simple and effective treatment modality by using citric acid as a sole antimicrobial agent...... hiện toàn bộ
Pressure ulcers’ incidence, preventive measures, and risk factors in neonatal intensive care and intermediate care unitsInternational Wound Journal - Tập 15 Số 4 - Trang 571-579 - 2018
Pablo García‐Molina, Evelin Balaguer‐López, Francisco Pedro García‐Fernández, María de los Ángeles Ferrera‐Fernández, José-María Blasco, José Verdú Soriano
Epidemiological studies on pressure ulcers (PUs) in hospitalised infants are scarce. Spain lacks comprehensive research studies providing data on the prevalence or incidence in this population. This work was developed to determine the incidence of PUs in hospitalised infants admitted to intensive and intermediate care units, along with relevant risk factors and preventive measures.
