LASER therapy is potent physiotherapy modalities, providing better sternotomy healing for patients who have undergone CABG surgery, compared with traditional wound care management alone. HLLT and LLLT were found to be the most effective methods for sternotomy healing post-CABG surgery, with HLLT offering superior performance in the case of the high deep penetration and significance less time needed to deliver the same joules/ cm compared to LLLT used for the wound site.
The main objective of the trial is to confirm safety of a new product - Epipad. The main impact of the device is to provide good environment for the healing of chronic wounds and wounds in the last healing phase (granulation and epithelisation).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of high-voltage pulsed current (HVPC) and microcurrent stimulation therapy (MST) in treating chronic wounds and to compare their effects.
Exercise studies with patients with diabetic foot ulcers are very few. In this disease group, since it is considered dangerous to put a load on the foot, a barrier has been placed between the patients and the exercise. With the study investigators plan to do, investigators will try to exercise in these patients in a controlled manner. Among the patients divided into 3 groups, the 1st group will apply the control group, the 2nd group will perform aerobic exercise, and the 3rd group will apply the exercises investigators have determined as the protocol group. 12 weeks, 2 sessions a week will be exercised with the help of a physiotherapist. Patients will be evaluated at baseline, at the end of week 4, at the end of week 8, and at the end.
Skin tears (ST) are one of the skin integrity problems encountered in healthcare settings with rates equal to or greater than pressure injuries. However, the importance of this problem has been emphasized in the literature in recent years. This study was conducted to determine the knowledge level of nurses about ST.

Malodours are a common complication of chronic wounds. They are the result of the proliferation of aerobic and anaerobic micro-organisms on the wound surface, where they metabolize healthy tissue which leads to the production of sloughy and even necrotic tissue. Wound odour has a big impact on the quality of life of patients. Currently the standard of care for the management of malodourous wounds are systemic antibiotics, absorbent wound dressings with or without activated carbon and, topical antimicrobials. The application of topical antimicrobials such as antiseptics against wound odour is part of the standard care. One suggested antiseptic in a recent published standard is Octenilin®. There is ample anecdotal evidence about the efficacy of Octenilin® in reducing wound odour. Therefore, we propose here to document this ability by evaluating the odour of wounds washed with Octenilin® versus standard care (NaCl 0.9% solution).
To demonstrate the safety and performance of both AMS ActivHeal Silicone Foam and AMS ActivHeal Silicone Foam Lite dressings to both the patient and clinician in managing both chronic and acute wounds.
Chronic wounds represent a growing challenge in medical care. Part 1: The aim of this part of the study was to collect wound swabs and to answer the question whether the rapid diagnostic tool using enzyme activities can display an infection prematurely. This means that an increased enzyme activity (especially MPO, NHE, LYS, gelatinase, pH) measured overed 3 days, would indicate a change in the wound bed (infection, Inflammation) earlier than the regularly performed clinical assessment. Part 2: The aim of this part of the study was to evaluate (I) the possibility of wound fluid acquisition by means of an "additional collector" during ongoing NPWT and to answer if (II) this secretion can be biochemically analyzed for enzyme activities in order to be able to detect a change in the wound situation at an early stage.
