By Howard I. Maibach and David T. Rovee

Book Overview

Edited by an expert team of researchers and clinicians, this book focuses on biological advances that improve knowledge and stimulate development in wound therapy. The chapter authors address quantifying repair in the epidermis, biological and clinical elements of wound healing, approaches to understanding and treating wounds, and gene therapy during wound repair. A discussion on the underlying chemistry of acute and chronic healing describes the special challenges presented by chronic wounds. A unique feature is the inclusion of a critical evaluation of current clinical practices. Chronicling progress in wound therapy over the past 30 years, the book provides complete picture of the field.
