Wound Healing and Burn Injuries

October 17, 2024

Research has advanced the scientific knowledge of the roles of cell populations, cytokines, inflammation, and genetics in the healing processes of acute and chronic wounds. This issue reviews current literature relevant to these physiologic processes that lead to wound healing as well as important issues in burn care; this is a logical grouping of topics because a burn is the prototypical example of a major wound that induces a profound metabolic response. Abnormal healing, especially of burn wounds, is characterized by hypertrophic scarring and contractures that impair joint motion, entrap nerves, and impede rehabilitation of the patient.
