The in vitro gaseous transmission of wound dressings.

The permeation properties of dressings to gases are important to the healing processes. It is necessary that dressings are permeable to water vapour, oxygen and carbon dioxide. A series of commercially available dressings have been assessed in vitro in respect of their permeability characteristics to these gases.

The effect of two new dressings on epidermal wound healing.

The effects of a Polyethylene oxide hydrogel dressing and a co-polymer starch hydrogel dressing upon the rate of re-epithelization were evaluated in a study using Yorkshire pigs. The polyethylene oxide hydrogel dressing significantly promoted re-epithelization by 44% as compared to untreated control wounds, while the copolymer starch hydrogel dressing significantly promoted epidermal healing by 24%. A possible mechanism of action is presented for the quicker healing induced by these dressings.

[Therapy of venous leg ulcer].

The socio-medical importance of venous leg ulcers is clear, considering that 2% of adults are suffering from. Hospitalization-time is twice as long than the average. The ratio female: male is about 2-3:1. 90% are venous leg ulcers. There is agreement to treat venous leg ulcers by compressive dressings basically. External local therapy can optimize the wound-healing. Contact dermatitis in about 80% of patients demand the use of 'inert' dressings, i.e. polyurethane foam dressings (e.g. Lyomousse).
