CHRONIC WOUNDS

open access: yesSurgical Clinics of North America, 1997
Skin ulcers are the most common chronic wounds. Current management principles and theories of causation of the most common ulcers--pressure, diabetic, and venous--are described. Issues related to occlusive dressings, compression dressings, topical antimicrobials, debridement, growth factors, grafting, and bioengineered tissue therapy are discussed ...

A novel model of chronic wounds: importance of redox imbalance and biofilm-forming bacteria for establishment of chronicity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Chronic wounds have a large impact on health, affecting ∼6.5 M people and costing ∼$25B/year in the US alone. We previously discovered that a genetically modified mouse model displays impaired healing similar to problematic wounds in humans and that ...

Biofilm and Equine Limb Wounds

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
In chronic wounds in humans, biofilm formation and wound chronicity are linked, as biofilms contribute to chronic inflammation and delayed healing. Biofilms are aggregates of bacteria, and living as biofilms is the default mode of bacterial life; within ...
