Journal of Surgical Research, 2002
Normal wound healing is a regulated sequence of events that successfully restore tissue integrity. Previous studies have suggested that wound healing is impaired in a septic host. The current study examines the effect of sepsis on the inflammatory and proliferative phases of wound healing at a remote site of secondary injury.Polyvinyl alcohol sponges ...

Burn Wound Colonization, Infection, and Sepsis

Surgical Infections, 2021
Background: Infection is a major cause of morbidity and mortality among burn patients, and it is important to understand the progression of wound colonization to wound infection to systemic sepsis. Methods: After a review of the literature we describe the clinical characteristics of burn wound colonization, infection, and sepsis, and conclude with best

A bacteriological survey of amputation wound sepsis

Journal of Hospital Infection, 1989
A retrospective survey of 100 lower limb amputations performed for ischaemia were analysed to assess the influence of preoperative bacterial isolates and the use of prophylactic antibiotics on wound sepsis. Forty-eight per cent had previously undergone a vascular procedure to attempt limb salvage and 17% were diabetics.

Assessment of burn wound sepsis

Journal of Hospital Infection, 1985
Biopsies are useful for monitoring wound infection. Not only does this method have a diagnostic value, but it also helps to evaluate the effectiveness of local and systemic wound treatment, to determine the appropriate time of skin autografting and finally to assess the chance of survival.
