Article Abstract
Wounds can cause many disorders and affect the quality of health, so it is necessary to develop wound dressings that have a role in accelerating the healing process. Wound dressings have evolved over time, and today there are many types of wound dressings that can suit the type of wound the patient has. This review discusses the development, types, and research directions of wound dressings from calcium alginate (CaAlg), using bibliometric analysis with time intervals from 1982 to 2021. It was found that, in the late 1990s, research related to this matter began to increase. United Kingdom, United States, China, Japan, and Italy are the five most influential countries. And from the results of the keyword analysis, it was found that, in addition to studying the general properties of wound dressings, currently there are many developments related to the structure of the material as well as the effect of adding drugs to wound dressings, so that the current study also displays various characterizations.

Purpose: Global pressure injury (PI) statistics reveal that hospital-acquired pressure injuries (HAPIs) remain a substantial burden, with over 1 in 10 hospitalized adults being affected. The purpose of this analysis is to describe how consistent collection, analysis, and use of data allow hospitals to validate their clinical and economic outcomes and to adjust PI prevention strategies.
Participants And Setting: HAPI incidence data for acute care patients at a 280-bed regional community hospital in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States (West Virginia) were collected from January 2012 to July 2023.

Since their introduction by Mennen and Wiese in 1993, semi-occlusive film dressings (SOFD) have been increasingly used in various clinical contexts, including the treatment of Allen type IV fingertip injuries, fingertip necrosis, and cases involving embedded foreign material.This study aimed to investigate whether and, if so, how the outcomes of Allen type III and IV fingertip injuries and fingertip necrosis differ from those of Allen types I and II. In addition, it aimed to investigate if the presence of embedded foreign material under a film dressing increases the risk of complications.

Wounds are regarded as disruptions in the integrity of human skin tissues, and the process of wound healing is often characterized as protracted and complex, primarily due to the potential infection or inflammation caused by microorganisms. The quest for innovative solutions that accelerate wound healing while prioritizing patient safety and comfort has emerged as a focal point. Within this pursuit, silkworm silk fibroin-a natural polymer extracted from silk cocoons-exhibits a distinctive combination of properties including biocompatibility, biodegradability, superior mechanical strength, water absorption, and low immunogenicity, which align closely with the demands of contemporary wound care.

Introducing multiple physical cues to control cell behaviors effectively is considered as a promising strategy in developing bioactive wound dressings. Silk nanofiber-based cryogels are developed to favor angiogenesis and tissue regeneration through tuning hydrated state, microporous structure, and mechanical property, but remained a challenge to endow with more physical cues. Here, β-sheet rich silk nanofibers are used to develop cryogels with nanopore structure.

Infectious diabetic wounds pose an arduous threat to contemporary healthcare. The combination of refractory biofilms, persistent inflammation, and retarded angiogenesis can procure non-unions and life-threatening complications, calling for advanced therapeutics potent to orchestrate anti-infective effectiveness, benign biocompatibility, pro-reparative immunomodulation, and angiogenic regeneration. Herein, embracing the emergent "living bacterial therapy" paradigm, a designer probiotic-in-hydrogel wound dressing platform is demonstrated.
