Eleutherine indica L. is a wound healing folklore medicine of North East Indian tribal people. The present investigation bulbs of E. indica were successively extracted with petroleum ether, chloroform, methanol and water and evaluated wound healing associated activities like antioxidant, antimicrobial and fibroblast proliferation properties. Petroleum ether (EIPE) and chloroform (EICE) extracts of E. indica were found inactive in antioxidant evaluations, whereas the methanol extract (EIME) showed

Surgical wound that results from delayed healing in a gastro-surgical ward is one of the most challenging tasks for us. Any dehisced wound that is complicated by wound infection and in relation to malnutrition, age, and different comorbidities are one of the dilemmas that are regularly happening in our ward. Wound management in our ward will require a rigid assessment in every shift of the day, this will require proper wound assessment and referral to the healthcare team when there are any changes

Gelatin-Collagen Nonwoven Accelerates Wound Healing”, by Schiefer, J.L. and Rath, R, and each section will be examined using our textbook “Understanding Evidence-Based Practice”. The article’s main focus was on determining the effect of healing when using multiple collagen nonwoven applications to chronic wounds. Twelve mini-pigs where used to test this technique and the findings indicated that this method was promising, because the wounds had a faster healing rate when multiple application of gelatin-collagen

Three of the identified mechanisms behind these healing effects are its ability to accelerate re-epithelialization, improve antioxidant enzyme activity, and stimulate higher collagen cross-linking within the tissue being repaired.[iii] Coconut oil has even been shown to work synergistically with traditional treatments, such as silver sulphadizine, to speed burn wound recovery.[iv] NSAID Alternative: Coconut oil has been demonstrated to have anti-inflammatory

Usually when a wound heals, a scar forms and hair does not grow again. However, they observed wound healing in mice and found that fat cells grow around hair cells in the skin. To test the relation between fat cells and hair cells. They bought modified mice one has a scar with hair growing and the other has a hairless scar. They found fat cells in the skin that has hair whereas the hairless skin did not form fat cells, so they

4 Stages of Healing How Do Wounds Heal? Research work on acute wounds in an animal model shows that wounds heal in four phases. It is believed that chronic wounds must also go through the same basic phases. Some authors combine the first two phases. The phases of wound healing are: * Hemostasis * Inflammation * Proliferation or Granulation * Remodeling or Maturation Hemostasis: Once the source of damage to a house has been removed and before work can start, utility workers

The functional link between hair follicles and wound healing I. Introduction Scientists worldwide are still trying to figure out ways to combat the issue of scarring due to the aftermath of wounding as it continues to be a major clinical issue. When skin is wounded, it normally only regains about fifty to eighty percent of some of its original healthy function, with consideration given to the severity of the initial wound and the functions the wounded skin cells govern [1,2]. As the epidermis,

ng/mL at the age of 20, but declines to 80 ng/mL by age 60 (Pickart, 2015). This gene is an important asset to our bodies as it “accelerates wound healing and contraction, improves the take or transplanted skin, brings vitality to fibroblasts after radiation, and also possesses anti-inflammatory actions (Pickart, 2015).” It is proven heal diabetic and ischemic wounds because of its ability to increase blood vessel formation. Another therapeutic GHK-Cu is used for is to reduce inflammation in COPD patients
