It is well recognized that food contamination can result in botulism either from ingestion of performed toxin, in classical botulism, or through absorption of toxin from bacteria within the gut, in infant botulism. Botulism due to contamination of wounds with Clostridium botulinum is not commonly recognized. We report a case of wound botulism occurring

The Physiology of Wound Healing and Wound Assessment
British Journal of Perioperative Nursing (United Kingdom), 2001Wound healing is a complex and remarkable process that occurs when the body responds to trauma. It requires the interaction of several intricate processes with the ultimate aim being to maintain homeostasis. With advances in surgery and increases in the amount of surgery being undertaken, research into wound healing has become of great importance ...

Wound Fluids: A Window Into the Wound Environment?
The International Journal of Lower Extremity Wounds, 2007Wound healing of the skin is a complex biologic process involving temporal interactions between numerous types of cells, extracellular matrix molecules, and soluble factors. The process of repair can be viewed as involving 3 or 4 phases: homeostasis, inflammation, synthesis, and remodeling.

Wound Geometry and the Kinetics of Wound Contraction
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1983Contraction of an excisional wound can be described by a decaying exponential with a non-zero asymptote between days 6 and 39 after wounding. Regardless of size or shape, the contraction-rate constant is invariant within age- and species-matched animals. Differently shaped wounds of the same size contract at the same rate during the exponential period.

Wound Cleaning and Wound Healing
Advances in Skin & Wound Care, 2013Chronic wounds present a significant societal burden in their cost of care, and they reduce patient quality of life. Key components of wound care include such measures as debridement, irrigation, and wound cleaning. Appropriate care removes necrotic tissue and reduces wound bioburden to enhance wound healing.

Wound Fluids and the Pathogenesis of Chronic Wounds
Journal of Wound, Ostomy and Continence Nursing, 1996To describe two areas of ongoing investigation into analysis of wound fluids that may eventually lead to better understanding of pathophysiology of chronic wounds and to improved care and treatment.Studies used Lowry protein assay, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, Western blotting, and zymography to analyze fluids from acute ...
