“…Recently, EW with antimicrobial properties has been utilized as part of cell proliferation, anti-infection and anti-biofilm therapies in a wound healing agent (shown in the Figure 5 ) [ 114 , 127 ]. Ben et al found that with the application of MicroSafe ® as an instillation fluid with a novel foam dressing and negative pressure wound therapy for the patient, the wound bed showed dramatic improvement after three days of treatment [ 128 ]. Sasai et al also studied the potential use of AEW for patients with atopic dermatitis.…”

As the situation of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is still deteriorating, there has been a huge increase in the demand and use of disinfectants. Electrolyzed water (EW), as a novel broad-spectrum disinfectant and cleaner, has been widely used for several years. EW can be produced in an electrolysis chamber which contains dilute salt and tap water. It is an effective antimicrobial and antibiofilm agent, with several advantages such as on-the-spot, cheap, environmentally friendly and safe for human beings. Therefore, EW holds potential significance for high-risk settings in hospitals and other clinical facilities. EW can also be applied for wound healing, advanced tissue care, and dental clinics. The present review article highlights the latest developments and new perspectives of EW, especially in clinical fields. Furthermore, the main action modes of antibiofilm and antimicrobial will be summarized.

“…Ahmad et al also studied that SAEW combined with 0.5% FA on pork showed a more significant bactericidal effect and prolonged shelf life at 6 days [106,107]. Consequently, bacterial viability decreased because essential enzymes and purine bases are negatively affected [108].…”

“…EW with an antimicrobial effect has been used as a part of cell proliferation, anti-biofilm, and antiinfection therapies in a wound-healing agent [115]. Ben et al discovered that, with the application of MicroSafe ® as an installation fluid with novel foam dressing and adverse pressure wound treatment for the patient, the wound showed significant improvement after three days of therapy [106,107]. In addition, HOCl has been reported to have antiinflammation and anti-itch effects on patients with atopic dermatitis [113].…”

Electrolyzed water (EW) has been proposed as a novel promising sanitizer and cleaner in recent years. It is an effective antimicrobial and antibiofilm agent that has several advantages of being on the spot, environmentally friendly, cheap, and safe for human beings. Therefore, EW has been applied widely in various fields, including agriculture, food sanitation, livestock management, medical disinfection, clinical, and other fields using antibacterial technology. Currently, EW has potential significance for high-risk settings in hospitals and other clinical facilities. The research focus has been shifted toward the application of slightly acidic EW as more effective with some supplemental chemical and physical treatment methods such as ultraviolet radiations and ultrasound. This review article summarizes the possible mechanism of action and highlights the latest research studies in antimicrobial applications.

“…Globally, chronic wounds are a secret epidemic that imposes astronomical health care expenses [14]. Approximately 6.5 million persons in the United States are afflicted with chronic ailments resulting from pressure caused by conditions such as diabetes mellitus, venous stasis, and various infections [4]. The average length of hospitalisation is lengthy, with annual costs ranging from $6 to $15 billion [27] [28].…”

“…The majority of colonised wounds are difficult to treat, necessitating the use of complex multimodal healing techniques [9]. The evolutionary steps have proved the capacity to treat wounds using reticulated open-cell foams, such as VERAFLO [4]. Using the creation of NPWT, the elimination of infectious material, and thick wound exudate, [12] numerous research studies have been conducted in an effort to improve wound healing duration and hospitalisation rates by introducing new techniques.…”

The experience involves the use of a new foam dressing in conjunction with negative pressure wound therapy (NPWTi-D) to remove and cleanse infectious material from the wound. This paper evaluates the clinical results of patients who received VERAFLO treatment and dressing. The use of the innovative foam dressing to facilitate the evacuation of the infectious, viscous, and scabby material is regarded as a very novel and beneficial technique. According to studies, the success of the wound healing process depends not only on the features of the patient, but also on those of the wound. Expected healing with NPWTi is deemed fortunate because it guarantees that the damage has reached granulation and is, therefore, ready to be treated. Again, healthcare facilities must educate their staff on the significance of NPWTi in the operating room. VERAFLO CLEANSE CHOICE has consistently demonstrated its efficacy in eliminating infectious particles and exudate, ensuring the effective treatment of wounds. In conclusion, the approach is deemed effective since it reduces hospital mortality and length of stay and communicates the intricacies of injuries to neurosurgeons in order to choose the appropriate treatment procedures. This article evaluates the study’s methodology, findings, pathophysiology, biochemistry, genetics, scientific analysis, clinical implications, and unanswered questions concerning the removal and cleansing of infectious material from a wound using a novel technique that combines negative pressure therapy with instillation.
