Dermatologic Clinics, 1993
Acute wounds are defined as a disruption in the integrity of the skin, including the epidermis and dermis. Healing is the reparative process by the skin to protect itself and to generate new cutaneous structures. Medical and surgical intervention in wounds can greatly affect the resultant scar and the time of healing.

Surgical Wound Bed Preparation of Chronic and Acute Wounds
Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 2007Our aging population has presented us with many new challenges. One such challenge is the need to manage an increase in wound-related problems effectively and efficiently. Over time, two parallel, yet divergent, management systems have developed. One strategy, used by medical specialists, uses a variety of dressings, topical enzymes, and local and ...

Current Management of Acute Cutaneous Wounds
New England Journal of Medicine, 2008In this article we describe our approach to the management of wounds. Wherever possible, our recommendations are based on randomized trials. However, many of the recommendations are based on small, observational studies or expert opinion; thus, we recognize that there may be disagreement with some of our recommendations.

Overview: Acute and Chronic Wounds
Nursing Clinics of North America, 2005Knowledge of normal wound healing and the changes associated with chronic wounds have advanced significantly. Distinct characteristics identified through basic and clinical studies are found in nonhealing wounds, including bacterial and growth factor imbalances, increased inflammatory responses, and proteolytic forces that tip the balance toward tissue

Wound healing in acutely injured fascia
Wound Repair and Regeneration, 2014AbstractFascial healing following acute injury, such as that occurring during surgical procedures, is defined functionally. For example, failure of fascial healing following celiotomy is only identified when incisional hernias are diagnosed. Such hernias incur billions of dollars per year in medical costs.

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 1998
The human response to injury involves the coordinated interplay of a variety of physiologic processes that result in a healed wound. In a highly reproducible manner, hemostasis is achieved, inflammation is induced, mesenchymal cells migrate into the wounded area and proliferate, revascularization occurs, epithelial continuity is re-established ...

Cryo-Induced Thermal Wounds: A Human Acute Wound Model.
Journal of drugs in dermatology : JDD, 2016Clinical models are invaluable in studying wound healing. Challenges in studying human wounds include heterogeneity of patients and wounds, as well as prolonged study time, resulting in high costs. Animal models are an efficient method to study wound healing, but often lack correlation with human acute wound healing.

Monitoring of Acute Wound Healing
Biomedical Optics, 2008Optical properties of wounds in hairless rats were assessed using DPDW methodology. An increase in absorption and scattering coefficients and a decrease in blood saturation was observed in wounds compared to control sites. Article not available.

Wound microbiome in acute open wounds
This dissertation explores the role of the wound microbiome in acute open wounds, structured into three distinct studies. The first study presents a comprehensive scoping review of the literature on Deep Sternal Wound Infection (DSWI), focusing on dimensions of the wound microbiome: microbial load, microbial diversity, presence/abundance of common ...openaire +1 more source
Nutritional Needs of the Acutely III with Acute Wounds
Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America, 1996The purpose of nutritional support in the critically ill is to blunt the effects of the stress response, to preserve musculature and organ function, and to promote hepatic protein synthesis, tissue regeneration, and wound healing. Adequate nutritional support is vital to the patient with acute wounds.
