Role of Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) in Healing of Electric Burns
Abstract: The objective of this case study is to evaluate the effectiveness of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) in treating scalp wounds caused by electric burns. A thorough examination of the scalp wound was conducted both before and after administering LLLT. The findings suggest that LLLT plays a beneficial role in the healing process of superficial ulcers. Specifically, the application of LLLT (as depicted in Figure 1) demonstrated promising results in facilitating …

Design and Development of a Pressure Measurement and Calibration Device for Use in Compression Therapy to Treat and Prevent Venous Ulcers
Abstract: Compression uses a combination of constricting clothing, bandages, or wraps to press against the skin and reduce swelling. By reducing the amount of fluid that accumulates in the affected area, tissue damage can be prevented or minimized. Compression therapy is a fundamental treatment for the root cause of venous ulcers and for preventing their recurrence. Various systems for implementing compression are available to suit individual patient needs and improve adherence …

Knowledge of Nurses Regarding Prevention Pressure Ulcer
Abstract: Pressure ulcers are a common problem in health care and represent a significant burden on patients. The costs of prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers are considerable. The reported incidence of pressure ulcer in acute care facilities ranges from 2.7% to 29.5% and approximately 5–8% annually and 25–85% of these patients develop a pressure sore at some time. The prevalence in acute care setting ranges from 3.5% to 29.5% and …

Non-healing Ulcer Treatment with Unani Formulation Zaroor-e-Qawi: A Case Series
Abstract: Non-healing ulcers (Qurooh-e-Aseeerat-ul-Indamaal) are those ulcers which do not heal by conservative treatment within six weeks. In Indian community its prevalence reported in year 2004 was 4.8 per1000 populations. About 1% of total western population suffers from it. This estimate is likely to increase many folds because of the increasing population of elderly people and the people with uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, arterial and venous diseases. It badly affects the patient’s …

Role of Modified Egg Membrane in Donor Site Wound Healing
Abstract: An ulcer is essentially a small gap or tear in the skin that struggles to heal properly, persisting either suddenly or over an extended period. These persistent ulcers can present significant challenges for individuals, prolonging their discomfort and recovery. Medical professionals employ various techniques to aid in healing, including using skin grafts from different body parts, specialized coverings, or temporary solutions to protect the wound.In our research, we explored an …

Guidelines for Management of Post Lymphedema Nonhealing Ulcer of Lower Limb
Abstract: Lymphedema represents a widespread medical concern, affecting a staggering 140.2 million individuals globally; however, its status as a vascular disease often remains underappreciated. In contrast to arterial and venous diseases, which have witnessed advancements in diagnostic and therapeutic approaches with the formulation of clinical practice guidelines (CPGs), lymphedema faces a conspicuous dearth of such comprehensive guidance. Despite the significant global prevalence of lymphedema, the lack of wellestablished guidelines has impeded …

Acoustic Characteristics of Person with Labial Cancer
Abstract: Oral cancer may arise as a primary lesion originating in any of the tissue in the mouth, by metastasis from a distant site of origin, or by extension from a neighboring anatomic structure, such as nasal cavity. Patients with tongue and lip cancer are particularly prone to speech and swallowing difficulties. The impact of labial cancer on speech relies on the area and size of growth. The present study was …

Prevalence of Oral Mucosa Lesions in Smoking, Non-Smoking, Diabetic Patients with Smoking and Diabetic Patients without Smoking
Abstract: Tobacco smoking habit is a risk factor for many oral lesions. A positive association between cigarette smoking and acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis (ANUG) was first reported over four decades ago. The dental loss was noted more in smokers than non-smokers. The periodontal disease is noted more in smokers and results alteration in the gingival indexes (GI) and gingival bleeding (GBI) indexes in smokers. Many studies revealed that a strong an …

Recent Advancements in Nanobiocomposite-Based Wound Healing and Tissue Regeneration
Abstract: Haemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, remodeling, and other highly coordinated cellular and molecular activities are all part of the complex biological processes of wound healing and tissue regeneration. Following an injury, these stages cooperate to restore tissue integrity and function. However, this normal process is disturbed in many clinical circumstances, especially chronic wounds such diabetic ulcers, burns, and pressure sores. Prolonged inflammation, chronic microbial infection, diminished angiogenesis, and impaired extracellular matrix production …
