Silver and nanoparticles of silver in wound dressings: a review of efficacy and safety
Tập 20 Số 11 - Trang 543-549 - 2011
Wound infections present a significant clinical challenge, impacting on patient
morbidity and mortality, with significant economic implications.
Silver-impregnated wound dressings have the potential to reduce both wound
bioburden and healing time. The silver ion Ag+ is the active antimicrobial
entity; it can interfere with thiol (−SH) groups and provoke the generation of
reactive oxygen species (R...
Maceration of the skin and wound bed 1: its nature and causes
Tập 11 Số 7 - Trang 275-278 - 2002
Maceration, caused by prolonged exposure to moisture, can complicate the healing
of wounds, especially chronic ones. This paper — the first of three reviewing
the literature on its aetiology and management — looks at how maceration occurs.
Survey of fungi and yeast in polymicrobial infections in chronic wounds
Tập 20 Số 1 - Trang 40-47 - 2011
Objective: To assess the incidence, abundance and species diversity of fungi in
chronic wounds, as well as to describe the associations of major fungi
populations. Method: Comprehensive molecular diagnostic reports were evaluated
from a total of 915 chronic wounds in a retrospective study. Results: Of the 915
clinical specimens, 208 (23%) were positive for fungal species. These samples
were furthe...
Burn wound healing: present concepts, treatment strategies and future directions
Tập 26 Số 1 - Trang 5-19 - 2017
Burns are the most extensive forms of soft tissue injuries occasionally
resulting in extensive and deep wounds and death. Burns can lead to severe
mental and emotional distress, because of excessive scarring and skin
contractures. Treatment of burns has always been a difficult medical problem and
many different methods have been used to treat such injuries, locally. Biofilms
are a collection of mi...
Comparative trial of Aloe vera/olive oil combination cream versus phenytoin cream in the treatment of chronic wounds
Tập 24 Số 10 - Trang 459-465 - 2015
Objective: Aloe vera is a medicinal plant that has been traditionally used to
accelerate wound healing. Olive oil is also a natural product that may
contribute to wound healing owing to its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory
effects. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of an Aloe vera–olive
oil (AVO) combination cream on the healing process of chronic wounds. Method: In
this randomised...

Effectiveness of a monofilament wound debridement pad at removing biofilm and slough:ex vivoand clinical performance
Tập 27 Số 2 - Trang 80-90 - 2018
Objective:Removal of slough and other devitalised tissue is an important step in
biofilm-based wound care (BBWC) and wound bed preparation. Debridement is key to
management of both slough and biofilm, and a number of methods are available to
achieve this, including surgical/sharp and mechanical debridement. Developments
have led to products indicated for debridement of wounds, including a sterile
...
The impact of topical phenytoin on recalcitrant neuropathic diabetic foot ulceration
Tập 18 Số 1 - Trang 33-37 - 2009
Objective: To study the impact of topical phenytoin on the healing of
recalcitrant neuropathic diabetic foot ulcers in patients with no clinical
evidence of ischaemia or infection, and to evaluate its antibacterial effect.
Method: Thirty-two patients were enrolled into the study. Topical phenytoin in
the form of 2% aerosol powder was applied once daily in addition to the
patient's usual treatment ...

The effects of Feijoa sellowiana fruit extract on wound healing in rats: a stereological and molecular study
Tập 31 Số Sup8 - Trang S36-S44 - 2022
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the anti-inflammatory and
wound-healing potential of Feijoa sellowiana fruit extract using stereological
and molecular methods in experimental rat models. Materials: Male Wistar rats
were divided into four equal groups: non-treated, vehicle, Feijoa sellowiana
fruit extract ointment (5% weight/weight) and the reference drug (madecassol).
All animals ...
