Wound Healing Potential of Intermittent Negative Pressure under Limited Access Dressing in Burn Patients: Biochemical and Histopathological Study
BACKGROUND Malondialdehyde (MDA) is an oxidant that causes damage to membranes, DNA, proteins, and lipids at the cellular level. Antioxidants minimize the effects of oxidants and thus help in formation of healthy granulation tissues with higher level of hydroxyproline and total protein. This study compared the effect of limited access dressing (LAD) with conventional closed dressing biochemica...
متن کاملWound Management and Dressing Selection
A holistic approach brings about a relationship between the patient, the wound, and the treatment (Flanagan, 1997). Accurate wound assessment depends on an understanding of several factors (Table 1). Other important aspects include measurement and documentation of wound healing rates and specialised areas such as leg ulcer assessment and the risk Clare Morris is Tissue Viability Advisor, North ...
متن کاملWound healing and the dressing.
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...
متن کاملHistopathological study of chronic wounds modulated by intermittent negative pressure therapy under limited access dressing
Aim: Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) has achieved widespread success in the treatment of chronic wounds. However, its effects have been only partially explored, and investigations have generally concentrated on the wound‐dressing interface; a detailed histopathological description of the evolution of wounds under NPWT is still lacking. The present study was performed to investigate the e...
متن کاملHoney: A Biologic Wound Dressing.
Honey has been used as a wound dressing for thousands of years, but only in more recent times has a scientific explanation become available for its effectiveness. It is now realized that honey is a biologic wound dressing with multiple bioactivities that work in concert to expedite the healing process. The physical properties of honey also expedite the healing process: its acidity increases the...
