Evaluation of the red & blue LED effects on cutaneous refractory wound healing in male Sprague-Dawley rat using 3 different multi-drug resistant bacteria.

Objectives: Photobiomodulation (PBM) is widely used in clinical therapy, and is an effective approach to resist the bacterial infection of the cutaneous wound and modulate the wound healing process. Due to the several detriments of lasers, Red & Blue LED light (RBLL) may be a more viable light source. This study is aimed to evaluate and compare the therapeutic effect of RBLL light on different multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria in vitro and male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat refractory MDR infection wound model in vivo.

Clinical experience of the use of Integra in combination with negative pressure wound therapy: an alternative method for the management of wounds with exposed bone or tendon.

The use of Integra has attracted great interest in the treatment of wounds with exposed bone or tendon, which may lead to associated morbidities. However, the use of Integra alone results in poor wound outcomes. We conducted a randomized clinical study to evaluate the combined effects of Integra and negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT).

Platelet-rich fibrin as an alternative adjunct to tendon-exposed wound healing: A randomized controlled clinical trial.

Background: The use of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) has attracted great interest in the treatment of oral and maxillofacial procedures, gingival recessions, and bone healing. However, PRF has been reported hardly to prepare wound bed before skin grafting. This randomized clinical study sought to identify the effect of PRF as an alternative adjunct to tendon-exposed wound healing.

[Distribution of deep inferior epigastric perforator vessel and application of the expanded perforator flaps].

Objective: To explore the distribution of deep inferior epigastric perforator vessel and application of the expanded perforator flap for large scar on hand and forearm.

Methods: 20 healthy adults were selected to detect the distribution of deep inferior epigastric perforator vessel. 10 cases with cicatricial constriction on hand and forearm were treated with expanded perforator flap.
