The Journal of Wound Management is the official journal of the European Wound Management Association (EWMA). Issues are published in January, May and October. EWMA Journal is CINAHL indexed and provides peer-reviewed original scientific articles, reviews, clinical information, and information about development in wound healing and management ...
Timing is important to wound healing. Critically, the timing of wound re-epithelialization can decide the outcome of the healing. [11] If the epithelization of tissue over a denuded area is slow, a scar will form over many weeks, or months; [12] [13] If the epithelization of a wounded area is fast, the healing will result in regeneration.
Scratch wound healing assay experiment of rhabdomyosarcoma, a cancer cell line. A wound healing assay is a laboratory technique used to study cell migration and cell–cell interaction. This is also called a scratch assay because it is done by making a scratch on a cell monolayer and capturing images at regular intervals by time lapse microscope.
A wound is any disruption of or damage to living tissue, such as skin, mucous membranes, or organs. [1] [2] Wounds can either be the sudden result of direct trauma (mechanical, thermal, chemical), or can develop slowly over time due to underlying disease processes such as diabetes mellitus, venous/arterial insufficiency, or immunologic disease.

David G. Armstrong (born February 18, 1969) is an American podiatric surgeon and researcher most widely known for his work in amputation prevention, the diabetic foot, and wound healing. He and his frequent collaborators, Lawrence A. Lavery and Andrew J.M. Boulton, have together produced many key works in the taxonomy, classification and ...
Postoperative wounds are those wounds acquired during surgical procedures. Postoperative wound healing occurs after surgery and normally follows distinct bodily reactions: the inflammatory response , the proliferation of cells and tissues that initiate healing , and the final remodeling .
The International Journal of Lower Extremity Wounds publishes original research, reviews of evidence-based diagnostic techniques and methods and surgical and medical therapeutics for wounds such as burns, ulcers and fistulas. The journal also focuses on areas such as assessment and monitoring tools, casting and bioengineered skin.
In modern typical usage, the solution is applied to the wound once daily for lightly to moderately exudative wounds, and twice daily for heavily exudative wounds or highly contaminated wounds. [ 3 ] The healthy skin surrounding the wound should preferably be protected with a moisture barrier ointment (e.g., petroleum jelly ) or skin sealant as ...
