An enzyme expressed by skin cells could be helpful in the management of non-healing skin wounds and ulcers, according to ...

Shorter wound healing time, fewer dressing changes and the opportunity for earlier discharge from the hospital. These are some of the benefits of negative pressure wound therapy to treat wound ...

Smart wound dressing developed by BITS Pilani Hyderabad Campus scientists kills bacteria and visually signals infection ...

A nanocellulose wound dressing that can reveal early signs of infection without interfering with the healing process has been developed by researchers at Linköping University, Sweden. Their study ...

The infected wounds treated with the hydrogel showed rapid healing compared to those in control animals. Bacterial counts fell rapidly and steeply over the first three days and remained low over ...

The scientists used the bandages on the wounds of both mice and rats with diabetes, before and after infection, for the study, demonstrating the “smart” bandage’s incredible potential.

That means washing your infected cut with soap and warm water, and then keeping it dry and covered with a clean bandage. “Keep the wound clean and covered and check and change the dressing daily ...

The creatures devour dead, infected tissue and kill off bacteria that could block the healing process without damaging surrounding tissue, since they cannot ingest healthy flesh.
