OBJECTIVE To define the role of suture closure of the subcutaneous dead space in preventing wound complications after cesarean delivery. DATA SOURCES We searched MEDLINE, the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and the bibliographies of major texts and review articles. METHODS OF STUDY SELECTION Only studies in which patients undergoing cesarean delivery were randomly assigned to closu...

INTRODUCTION Conventional management of partial thickness facial burn wounds includes the use of silver sulphadiazine dressings. Silver sulphadiazine forms an overlying slough that makes wound healing assessment difficult. Moist exposed burn ointment (MEBO) has been proposed as the ideal burn wound dressing both for burns of the face and other sites. Proponents of MEBO claim that it accelerates...

Sulfated polysaccharides have shown promising effects on wound healing processes along with many other biological activities. The sulfated polysaccharides extracted from two algae species habitats in Persian Gulf were studied in vivo for their effects on collagen formation and epidermal regeneration. The polysaccharides were purified from aqueous extracts of P. tetrastromatica and P. boergeseni...

background persian oak (quercus brantii) belongs to the fagaceae family. it is a medicinal plant which is commonly used by the tribes in south western iran to treat inflammatory and gastric ulcers. objectives the aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of persian oak ointment on dermal wound healing in rats. materials and methods for making full-thickness wounds in rats, the excisio...

Objective(s): Chemokines are wound mediators that promote angiogenesis during wound healing. We hypothesized that Simvastatin in combination with the bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) improve burn wound healing by ameliorating angiogenesis via SDF-1α/CXCR4 pathway.Materials and Methods: Under general anesthesia, deep partial-...

thickness skin graft to a large surgical wound in a patient with sclerodermatous skin. In this case history, the key point is a clinical one—that wound healing may be uncomplicated even if the graft is taken from affected sclerodermatous skin and transplanted to another affected area. There are reports in the literature of using artificial [8], split thickness [9] and autologous [10] skin graft...

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility of a portable electrospinning device for the application of wound dressings. Approach: Four polymer nanofibers dressings were applied on superficial partial thickness wounds to a porcine model and compared with a traditional paraffin tulle gras dressing. The polymer nanofibrous dressings were applied using a handheld portable el...
