Abstract
Healing chronic wound is the time-consuming process. There are many reasons for failure: systemic diseases (diabetes mellitus, peripheral artery occlusive disease - PAOD, side effects of drugs, malnutrition, renal failure etc.) or local problems (infection, improper local treatment, over-loading, high risk locations). The longer the wound healing lasts, the higher the risk of severe complication is. Hard-to-heal wounds are connected with higher incidence of limb amputations, wound infections (including nosocomial infections), morbidity and mortality. Long-time wound healing is also very expansive. It is important to try to shorten the length of hospitalization, speed up the wound healing and achieve quick wound closure for these patients. We’ll demonstrate 8 case-studies in our presentation.
