objective: to assess the effects of platelet rich plasma (prp) with chitosan biodegradable film on full thickness wound healing in rat. methods: this was an experimental study being performed in 2015 during a 4-month period. twenty-four male white wistar rats were divided into four groups of 12 rats each, randomly: control group (sham) with creation of wounds and no treatment, prp group with cr...

introduction: in the present study, the effects of light cure on wound healing of mice’s skin with complete thickness were studied. materials and methods: forty male mice of nmri race were placed randomly into two groups of examination and control. under aseptic and unconscious conditions, a circular wound of 6 mm width with complete thickness of skin was made on the back of each mice. the surg...

Objective Management of patients with full thickness wound of skin continues to challenge physicians and surgeons in area of cosmetic dermatologic surgery. At the present time, there are some medications and procedures that can be used to accelerate the healing of full thickness wound of skin. Based on studies that have demonstrated improved upper eyelid wound healing with OCA (octyl-2-cyanoacr...

nowadays, hydrogels are widely used as wound dressings in biomedical applications. similar to other types of the moist (wet) wound dressings, it is necessary to have sufficient information about their dehydration kinetics during the pre-usage period (e.g. storage duration) and also the wound healing process. in this work, hydrogel wound dressings based on polyvinyl alcohol were prepared by cycl...

background: increasing abdominal subcutaneous tissue thickness is a risk factor for postoperative complications in obese women who underwent cesarean section (c/s). different strategies have used to decrease the wound complications. using antibacterial vicryl suture to decrease infectious complications has been studied for several years. present study assesses the effect of subcutaneous closure...

Introduction: In the present study, the effects of light cure on wound healing of mice’s skin with complete thickness were studied. Materials and Methods: Forty male mice of NMRI race were placed randomly into two groups of examination and control. Under aseptic and unconscious conditions, a circular wound of 6 mm width with complete thickness of skin was made on the back of each mice. The surg...

background: honey has been shown to accelerate wound healing, which is especially important in the management of patients with full-thickness wounds of skin in dermatologic surgeries.   objective: to evaluate the effects of honey in accelerating healing of full-thickness skin wounds in mice.   methods: two groups of male nmri mice (n=12) were subjected to full-thickness skin wounds under genera...

BACKGROUND Wound re-epithelialization has been traditionally described to occur from the dermal appendages of the wound edges. As such, the role of the dermal wound bed in re-epithelialization has been questioned. In a patient undergoing breast reconstruction with free tissue transfer, the buried portions of the free flap skin paddle could be either de-epithelialized or deskinned. In case of ma...

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...
