Bewährte und aktuelle Verfahren in der Wundheilung

Abstract: Most chronic wounds are caused by arterial or venous vascular disease. Wound care is an interdisciplinary task and economic challenge. Numerous new wound dressings and treatment methods have been introduced recently. Basic research has enhanced our understanding of stimulation and inhibition of wound healing. Well-constructed clinical studies have shown some traditional approaches to be effective and others, less so. Successful wound healing requires treatment of the underlying disease as well as correction of… Show more

“…Skin wounds with various characteristics are a global issue and a major threat to the public health and economy [1,2,3].
