Comparison of the adhesion disposition of conventional and modern wound dressings in vitro

چکیده
Introduction Wound dressings that adhere to the wound surface can disrupt the wound bed and destroy newly formed, healthy tissue on removal, resulting in a disturbed, rough surface. This often happens with simple gauze pad. To avoid conglutination with the wound, e.g. combined fleece compresses possess a micro-porous polyester foil or impregnated gauze is used. So far, it hasn’t been studied whether the conglutination proclivity of conventional dressings is different from modern wound dressings, e.g. foams featuring a WCL (wound contact layer). Hence, we have evaluated the adhesion disposition of conventional and modern wound dressings in vitro.

متن کاملComparison between Conventional Mechanical Fixation and Use of Autologous Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) in Wound Beds Prior to Resurfacing with Split Thickness Skin Graft
BACKGROUND Platelet rich plasma is known for its hemostatic, adhesive and healing properties in view of the multiple growth factors released from the platelets to the site of wound. The primary objective of this study was to use autologous platelet rich plasma (PRP) in wound beds for anchorage of skin grafts instead of conventional methods like sutures, staplers or glue. METHODS In a single ...
