Journal ArticleDOI

Wound bed preparation: a systematic approach to wound management.

TL;DR: Wound bed preparation is the management of a wound in order to accelerate endogenous healing or to facilitate the effectiveness of other therapeutic measures to select the most appropriate intervention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of the acute and chronic wound environments: the role of proteases and their inhibitors.

TL;DR: The elevated levels of matrix metalloproteinase activity decreased significantly as healing occurs in chronic leg ulcers, which parallels the processes observed in normally healing acute wounds and supports the case for the addition of protease inhibitors in chronic wounds in conjunction with any treatments using growth factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitogenic activity and cytokine levels in non‐healing and healing chronic leg ulcers

TL;DR: Results suggest that healing in chronic venous leg ulcers may be impaired by inflammatory mediators rather than inhibited by a deficiency of growth factors in these chronic wounds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epidemiology of chronic venous ulcers

TL;DR: A metropolitan population of 238000 in Perth, Western Australia, was screened for chronic ulceration of the leg and it was found that chronic venous ulcers were more common in women and there was no difference in age related prevalence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biochemical analysis of wound fluid from nonhealing and healing chronic leg ulcers

TL;DR: In this small sample of eight patients, wound fluid collected from chronic leg ulcers is an exudate with the biochemical composition expected in extracellular fluid, and changes in the state of hypoxia and the inflammatory process in the healing wound are suggested.
