Filter by:The World Health Organization (WHO) and professional societies recommend restricted episiotomy instead of routine episiotomy. However, since the 1990s, there has been evidence of the risks of the procedure, and although routine use has no benefit, it is still widely used. In this study, investigators aimed to determine the effect of episiotomy on the wound healing process and pain perception by providing episiotomy wound healing and genital hygiene training with training material created to raise awareness about wound care after episiotomy and to eliminate factors that delay the healing of episiotomy wound.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of application of Alvogyl versus hyaluronic acid in decreasing postoperative pain and promoting healing in the palatal wound following the free gingival graft procedure
The purposes of this study are to compare the blood perfusion and early healing of horizontal mattress suture with vertical mattress sutures following open-flap implant surgery. Patients wanting single implant replacement in esthetic area will be recruited. This is a randomized, open-label, controlled clinical trial. Noninvasive procedures will be used to assess the primary and secondary outcomes. Inclusion Criteria: With sufficient bone width (≥6mm), With mesial-distal distance over 8mm, age over 18, Willing to participate Exclusion Criteria: Patients want multiple adjacent implant replacements in esthetic area, Untreated periodontitis, Smokers, Diabetes mellitus
The aim of the present study will be to manufacture and characterize silk fibroin membranes loaded or not with neurotensin and to evaluate clinical, patient-centered and immunological parameters the effect of using these membranes on open wounds on the human palate.
The aim of the present study is to evaluate using clinical, patient-centered, immunological, microbiological, and histological parameters, the effect of silk fibroin films loaded or not with insulin in the repair of palatal mucosa open wounds.
The purpose of the study was designed leg resistance training combined with breathing approach, and evaluated its effect on wound healing, blood sugar control and quality of life in type 2 diabetic patients with foot ulcers.
Chronic wounds are important economic and health-care problem. Biofilm has been recognized as a major factor in wound chronicity, delayed healing, and persistent infections, increasing the need for frequent dressing changes, painful debridement and systemic antimicrobial treatments influencing quality of life. In the presence of "un-cultivating" bacteria and limitations of clinical indicators of biofilm presence, there is a need for simple "screening" diagnostic method for biofilm detection. Chronic wounds of different etiology often associated with chronic pain reduce working abilities and cause restrictions in everyday living diminishing patient's quality of life. Efficacy of hyperbaric oxygenation therapy (HBOT) in treating chronic wound and associated infection has been suggested. This observational prospective cohort study will be conducted at the Department of undersea and hyperbaric medicine and Department of dermatovenereology, Clinical Hospital Center Rijeka during 3-year period from 2021. to 2024. including all patients treated due to chronic wound irrespective of the ethology. The patients will be evaluated upon enrolment, after 2, 4, 6 weeks, and 3, 6, 9, 12 months period, to clinically evaluate the wound characteristics, evaluate clinical healing rate, clinical indicators of biofilm and/or infection, need for additional diagnostic or treatment procedures. The patients in both groups (control and HBOT group) will be treated with standard treatment (dressings, debridement, antibiotics, infection control), in addition HBOT sessions will be performed (HBOT group). Impact of chronic wound and both treatment options to patient related outcome measures will be evaluated assessing intensity and pain characteristics, quality of life, depression, and anxiety by means of standardized questionnaires (visual analogue scale, McGill Pain questionnaire, Wound Quality of Life Index, Health Quality of Life Questionnaire, Beck depression and anxiety inventory). Microbiological analyses of swabs/biopsies will be evaluated to determine microbial profile and resistance. Detection and objectivization of biofilm will be evaluated by standard methods on microbiological isolates (Congo red agar, tube method, tissue culture plate method) and confocal scanning laser microscopy, and on clinical samples by light microscopy. Primary and secondary objective will be assessed after 1 year follow-up.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the healing rates of wounds treated with various wound care regimens including antiseptic wound wash, topical antibiotic treatment, adhesive bandages, and/or hydrocolloid bandages.
The randomized control trial will be conducted in the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Dr. Ruth K.M. Pfau Civil Hospital Karachi.General population admitted in Civil Hospital Karachi, for wound coverage with skin grafting meetimg inclusion criteria will be included.
Wound is defined by the breach in dermis of the skin. It can be caused by road traffic accidents, tumor excision, chronic illness like diabetes, bed sores in bedridden patients, burns, insects' bites etc. Treatment goals for wound coverage includes earliest debridement, dressings, local antibiotics, limb elevation, fracture fixations and wound coverage. Skin graft functions both as occlusive dressing, as a skin replacement and as a stimulus for healing. Even though the usage of flaps to cover the wounds has been increased recently still skin grafting serves as an easiest and simplest way of covering the wound. However, skin grafting introduces another wound in addition to the existing wound, the donor site wound (DSW). A secondary donor-site wound (DSW) is formed after harvesting split thickness skin graft which adds up with the primary wound to increase the total size of the wounds for the healing process. This donor site wound cause itching, pain and cosmetic embarrassment. That is why the proper and timely healing of the donor site wound is of great importance. Basic management of DSWs includes conventional dressings that provides absorption of bleeding solely.
