In the last few decades, our increased knowledge of the mechanisms
involved in wound repair has stimulated the development of many new
dressings and wound management techniques. If these are to be used
in the most appropriate and cost-effective manner, practitioners
must have a good understanding of the properties and key functions
of the products concerned. This book has been produced to offer
specific guidance in this important area, containing chapters on
silver dressings, honey products, medical maggots and negative
pressure therapy in addition to more conventional products
including hydrocolloids, foam, films and fibrous dressings made
from alginate or CMC. Each chapter contains an account of the
historical development, structure and method of use of the
individual treatments, and all of this information is supplemented
by the results an extensive review of the clinical literature for
each product group. A final chapter offers some simple observations
on the principles of dressing selection by making reference to a
variety of different wound types. This section also illustrates how
the use of an incorrect treatment may cause significant problems to
the patient and their carers. The book contains 720 pages and 125
illustrations, many in full colour, making it perhaps the most
comprehensive source of reference of its type currently available.
