In the Indian context, the formal description of wound care has been widely elaborated in the three great treaties (Brahatrayi) of Ayurveda i.e., Charak Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, Ashtang Sangrah. Madhu has been described by them as Vrana Ropaka. A 42-year-old patient came to us with Ignored 10 days old open fracture of the Base 2nd Metatarsal with an infected wound right foot. After debridement of the wound and application of Madhu was done for 3 weeks, and B/K POP Slab applied. The treatment plan followed may be adopted in the future for cases.

Objectives The aim of this study was to retrospectively review the effectiveness of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) in sternal wound healing with the use of the validated Bates-Jensen Wound Assessment Tool (BWAT), and explore the role of NPWT over sternal wounds and future treatment pathways. Methods Data was gathered from patients' medical records and the institution's database clinical management system. Seventeen subjects, who had undergone cardiothoracic surgeries and subsequently consulted the wound care team in one year were reviewed. Fourteen of them were included in the analysis. Healing improvement of each sternal wound under continuous NPWT and continuous conventional dressings was studied. In total, 23 continuous NPWT and 13 conventional dressing episodes were analysed with the BWAT. Results Among conventional dressing episodes, sternal wound improvement was 2.5–3% over 10 days to 3.5 weeks, whereas 4–5% sternal healing was achieved in 5 days to 2 weeks with sternal wire presence. Better healing at 11% in 1 week by conventional dressing was attained after sternal wire removal. In NPWT episodes, 8–29%, 13–24%, and 15–46% of healing was observed in 2 weeks, 3.5 to 5 weeks and 6 to 7 weeks, respectively. Only 39% wound healing was acquired at the 13th week of NPWT in one subject. With sternal wire present, 6%–29% wound healing progress was achieved by NPWT in 1–4 weeks, and 16–23% wound improvement in 2 to 4.5 weeks by NWPT after further surgical debridement. After sternal wire removal, 6–34% sternal wound healing occurred by continuous NPWT for 1–2 weeks, and maximum healing at 46% after 2.5 weeks of NPWT were observed. Conclusions Better wound healing was achieved in the NPWT group in comparison to conventional dressings alone. However, suboptimal sternal wound healing by NPWT alone was observed. Removal of sternal wire may improve the effectiveness of NPWT. Successful tertiary closure after NPWT among subjects supports the important bridging role of NPWT in sternal wound healing. Factors causing stagnant sternal wound healing by NPWT alone are discussed.

Patients With Diabetes

Diabetic foot ulcer (DF) is a chronic complication of diabetes mellitus (DM), which impact on the morbidity, mortality and quality of patients’ lives.Of those patients with diabetes mellitus, approximately 15% to 25% developed to the foot ulcer. Beside has the infection and debridement of devitalized tissue downloading; the moisture imbalance becomes the factors of recalcitrant to healing. Moist wound healing is often contraindicated to the non-healable wounds. While wound care involves the debridement, bacterial reduction, and moisture balance in order to achieve the good granulation of the tissue development and adequate blood supply.

Purpose:To evaluate an evidence-based wound protocol for intravenous extravasation injuries in neonates.Sample:Nine newborns with intravenous extravasation injuries. Birth weight: 582–4,404 gm, gestational age: 24–40 weeks.Results:Five wounds were colonized with coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species, two with diphtheroids, three with Enterococcus. There was no evidence of wound infection or systemic infection. Rates of wound healing ranged from one to six weeks.

Mesenchymal stromal cells and the derived conditioned media represent an area of tremendous medical interest and, among other clinical applications, are currently being extensively explored for wound healing. The aim of this study was to comparatively evaluate the wound healing potential of xeno-free human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) and the conditioned media (CM) in a full-thickness excision wound model in rats. The evaluation parameters included rate of wound healing, serum cytokine analyses, collagen content, histopathology, and hyperspectral imaging as an independent qualitative and quantitative tool. Both the cell-based and cell-free approaches scored better in lower inflammation, as evidenced in lower IL-10 and stable IL-6 levels, and improved rate of wound healing (<i>p</i> &#x3c; 0.0001). More importantly, no adverse reaction or rejection was observed although human MSCs and CM were used in a xenogeneic model. The presence of hFGF, hHGF, hGCSF, hIL-1Ra, hVEGF, and hIL-6 in the secretome may elucidate the regenerative potential of the xeno-free cell-based and cell-free approaches which have translational value for advanced wound care. The results revealed the therapeutic potential of both the cell-based and cell-free approaches for wound healing.

ABSTRACT The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of a hydrocolloid dressing on second intention wound healing in cats. Two full-thickness skin wounds, measuring 2 × 2 cm, were created on both sides of the dorsal midline of 10 cats; bilaterally, one randomly selected wound was bandaged with a hydrocolloid dressing and the second one (control) with a semiocclusive pad. Subjective clinical evaluation of granulation tissue formation, of the quantity and nature of wound exudate, and planimetry were performed on the right-side wounds, and histological examination on the left. No significant differences in subjective clinical evaluation or in planimetry were observed between the hydrocolloid-treated wounds and controls. Most wounds had serous or absence of exudate (41.25% and 25%, respectively), whereas purulent exudate was observed in 7.5% of wounds. Edema was significantly increased in the hydrocolloid-treated wounds compared with controls on day 7 but no significant differences in the other histological variables were observed.
