A functional chitosan-based hydrogel as a wound dressing and drug delivery system in the treatment of wound healing

Abstract: Functional active wound dressings are expected to provide a moist wound environment, offer protection from secondary infections, remove wound exudate and accelerate tissue regeneration, as well as to improve the efficiency of wound healing.

“…Human skin is the most important and the largest organ of the human body. 1 It acts as a barrier against the invasion of pathogens, such as bacteria and fungi colonization. 2,3 Wounds to the skin are classied as acute, such as those due to burns, trauma, and abrasions, or chronic, such as the case with diabetic foot ulcers.…”

“…Ideal wound dressing should be biocompatible and provide an optimal wound healing environment by absorbing excess exudate and toxins, keeping moisture balance, allowing gaseous exchange and discouraging microorganism entrance . Wound dressings have been constructed by both synthetic and natural polymers or their blends in different forms such as sponges, films, hydrogels, hydrocolloids, and membranes . Sponge dressings are generally preferred since their high porosity allows gas permeability, controlled water vapor evaporation, and wound exudate absorption, which keeps wounds in moist environment .…”
