Wounds and wound healing have been studied in the medical arena for centuries, however, in recent decades new advances have emerged in this extensive field. Currently, the wound healing process is studied at the molecular level giving new insights to the physiological process of wound closure and the lack thereof. With development of new treatment modalities the potential for earlier wound closure and ultimately increased quality of life for chronic wound patients is emerging. As understanding of the delicate balance of molecules within the wound increases, options for treating patients will also increase. Again, an understanding of the wound healing process is vital not only when employing these new treatment options, but also for proper patient care. |
