Background: Chronic skin wounds are a growing financial burden for healthcare providers, causing discomfort/immobility to patients. Whilst animal chronic wound models have been developed to allow for mechanistic studies and to develop/test potential therapies, such systems are not good representations of the human chronic wound state. As an alternative, human chronic wound fibroblasts (CWFs) ha...
The incidence of chronic wounds is increased among older adults, and the impact of chronic wounds on quality of life is particularly profound in this population. It is well established that wound healing slows with age. However, the basic biology underlying chronic wounds and the influence of age-associated changes on wound healing are poorly understood. Most studies have used in vitro approach...
Chronic leg wounds have a considerable impact on quality of life. It has been reported that over 70% of patients experience pain associated with their wounds which can range from moderate to severe. Wound pain and intensity is highly variable, it is not an accurate predicator to make clinical assumptions that specific wound types or wound size will define the type of pain the patient is experie...
Water-filtered infrared-A (wIRA), as a special form of heat radiation with a high tissue penetration and a low thermal load to the skin surface, can improve the healing of acute and chronic wounds both by thermal and thermic as well as by non-thermal and non-thermic effects. wIRA increases tissue temperature (+2.7 degrees C at a tissue depth of 2 cm), tissue oxygen partial pressure (+32% at a t...
Background and aim: Improvement of wound healing in normal subjects and in chronic ulcers has been always desired. The availablity and acceptability of herbal medicine led us to study the effect of topical 10% mucilage of quince seed in human skin.Materials and Methods: This double-blind clinical trial has been conducted on 34 patients referring to Imam Hospital, clinic...
Chronic wounds--as defined by the World Union of Wound Healing Societies (WUWHS)--are a considerable worldwide health care expense and impair quality of life. In order for chronic wounds to heal, these wounds must be transformed to a more acute state to begin the healing process. Topical negative pressure (TNP) with reticulated open cell foam (ROCF) is known to promote healing in certain types ...
A previous study described the phenomenon of 16 financially stable Caucasian elders living with a chronic wound. The purpose of this study was to extend this research and describe the phenomenon of living with a chronic nonhealing wound in elders of color and in financially fragile circumstances. A purposive sample of 11 elders (nine older than and two disabled persons younger than 65...
The pH in the milieu of chronic wounds, directly or indirectly influenced many factors in wound healing. As part of our investigations we have carried out 247 pH measurements in 39 patients with chronic wounds of various origins. There were pH values may be obtained from 5,45-8,65. For continuous observation of individual patients showed individual differences in pH measurements of up to 1.73 w...
In acute and chronic wounds, Katupila (Securinega leucopyrus) (Willd.) Muell is a commonly used folklore remedy in Sri Lanka and Saurashtra region of India. We report a case of Madhumehajanya Dushta Vrana (chronic diabetic wound) that was treated with local application of S. leucopyrus in paste form once daily. Wound healed within a month with normal pigmentation and minimal scar. This case als...
Chronic venous ulceration represents a very common event. Current standard treatment includes local wound care with the application of compression. We report the effects of platelet-rich plasma in patients with chronic venous ulcers, which is able to stimulate fibroblasts, macrophages and mesenchymal cells and growth factors in order to achieve re-epithelialisation and neovascularisation within...
