A Systematic Review on Classification, Identification, and Healing Process of Burn Wound Healing

Abstract

Because of the intrinsic complexity, the classification of wounds is important for the diagnosis, management, and choosing the correct treatment based on wound type. Generally, burn injuries are classified as a class of wounds in which injury is caused by heat, cold, electricity, chemicals, friction, or radiation. On the other hand, wound healing is a complex process, and understanding the biological trend of this process and differences in the healing process of different wounds could reduce the possible risk in many cases and greatly reduce the future damage to the injured tissue and other organs. The aim of this review is to provide a general perspective for the burn wound location among the other types of injuries and summarizing as well as highlighting the differences of these types of wounds with emphasizing on factors affecting thereof.

The effects of lockdown measures due to COVID‐19 pandemic on burn cases

“…Many people apply to health facilities every year as a result of burn injuries 1 . Although some of the burns are very simple injuries, some carry a life‐threatening risk.…”

“…6 Mortality rates due to burn injuries are declining in parallel with the advancement of care and treatment opportunities in this area. 1 Burns are not only a localised event that affects the skin, but they are a comprehensive trauma that affects the whole organism and determines the physiopathological effects and prognosis.…”

Nonwoven Releasing Propolis as a Potential New Wound Healing Method—A Review

“…Burns are a special type of wounds, and they are classified separately according to the area and depth of the damage. The wound surface is important due to the large loss of fluid through the damaged epidermis [ 12 ].…”

“…They increase the permeability of capillaries, which leads to leakage of plasma from the vessels into the interstitial spaces, which reaches its maximum in the first 8 h and lasts up to 48 h. After this time, the vascular permeability returns to the previous level, or thrombosis occurs, which causes the cessation of circulation at the site of damage. The loss of plasma may cause hypovolemic shock, and the amount of fluid loss depends on the severity of the burn [ 12 , 13 ].…”

Nanotechnology Against The Novel Coronavirus (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2): Diagnosis, Treatment, Therapy and Future Perspectives

“…There are concerns such as cargo degradation, no bioavailability or rapid clearance with regard to the delivery of drugs, genes and proteins to the patient’s body, which nanomedicine can address by providing nanoparticle based carriers [ 44 , 45 ]. Different kinds of nanomaterials (such as inorganic, lipid and polymer based nanoparticles) with high loading capacity and unique properties can be used to encapsulate and deliver protein cargos efficiently [ 46 , 47 ].…”
