Article Synopsis
- Several guidelines endorse TLC-NOSF dressings for chronic wounds, but they are often seen as second-line treatments, risking patient care and increasing costs.
- A systematic review analyzed existing studies from various databases, focusing on wound healing rates, quality of life, and costs when TLC-NOSF dressings were used as initial therapy.
- The review included 17 studies published between 2017 and 2024, comparing TLC-NOSF as both first-line and second-line treatments, revealing important insights into their effectiveness and implications for patient outcomes.
Article Synopsis
- A study looked at how often diabetic foot ulcers healed with a special type of dressing called sucrose octasulfate come back after 1 year.
- The study had two groups: one used the special dressing, and the other used different treatments.
- Results showed fewer people in the dressing group had their ulcers return (28%) compared to the other group (66.7%), which means the special dressing worked better at preventing the wounds from coming back.
Objective: To evaluate the healing outcomes and costs associated with the aetiological management of venous leg ulcers (VLUs) treated with recommended multicomponent bandages (MCBs) and short-stretch bandages (SSBs).
Method: This observational study is a retrospective comparative study (Level 2b), based on the French administrative healthcare database (Système National des Données de Santé, SNDS). It includes patients treated from onset with reimbursed MCBs and SSBs for a VLU episode, between July 2018 and September 2020.
Non-optimal wound management and late referral to specialised units negatively impacts patient prognosis and quality of life, as well as healthcare costs. Healico is a new mobile application (app), created in the wound care field, in response to the challenges and difficulties encountered by health professionals (HPs) who deal with patients with wounds on a daily basis. This article aims to describe how this new app was developed, how it works, as well as the real-life clinical benefits and evidence supporting its use.

Unlabelled: Abdominoplasty, one of the most commonly performed aesthetic procedures, aims at correcting excess abdominal skin and fat, but generates a long abdominal scar. The efficacy of an automated portative 1210-nm laser in improving the appearance of surgical scars has been previously demonstrated in a double-blind randomized controlled trial. The purpose of this work was to document the use of this laser in real-life practice.
