“…En cuanto al agente causal, la presión afecta al 98% de los casos, la cizalla al 37%, la humedad al 26% y la incontinencia al 24%, aunque en algunos casos se reportó una combinación de varias causas 24 . En Bogotá se halló una prevalencia del 14,1%, con predominio de afectación en el género masculino, y la causa más frecuente fue la presión, con un 92,5%, seguido de las lesiones ocasionadas por la humedad 25 .…”

Prevalencia de lesiones de piel asociadas a la dependencia físicaen geriátricos e instituciones de salud de Tunja Prevalence of skin lesions associated with physical dependence in nursing homes and health institutions in Tunja ABSTRACTObjectives: To determine the exact prevalence of skin lesions associated with dependence physical, conduct socio-demographic characterization of those affected, characterizing lesions based on provisions of the National Group for the Study and advice on Pressure Ulcers and Chronic Wounds (GNEAUPP), the National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPUAP) and the European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (EPUAP), establish the ability of health personnel to recognize and classify lesions associated with dependence. Methodology: descriptive multicenter point prevalence in third level health care institutions and gerontology centers from Tunja, Colombia. Results: four institutions participated, the sample was 409 people, 24 had lesions associated with dependence for a prevalence of 5.86%; of those affected 41.6% were men and 58.4% women, 79.1% with ≥50 years regarding the origin 53.8% belonged to urban zones and 46.2% rural zones; 56.6% of patients belonged to the subsidized health scheme, 30% to contributory health scheme 13.4% to special. The etiology of lesions was discriminated as follows: pressure 67.3%; LESCAH 13.4%; MARSI 11.5% and 7.7% skin tears. Conclusions: The prevalence found is related to results of Colombian previous studies, the effect is greater in women and increased frequency of occurrence of injuries corresponds to those caused by pressure and mechanical friction, LPAD occurred more often in people of origin urban. 75% of people who completed the survey reported not having received institutional training for identification and classification (LPAD).

Skin wounds are a global public health concern, causing around three hundred thousand lives yearly and disabling millions more. More than 95% of these injuries occur in emerging countries where access to health services is limited, and resources are scarce. Variables such as depth, cause, infection, and/or chronicity determine the outcome of skin wounds and whether they hinder the body´s natural healing process. In order to treat deep, chronic and/or complicated skin wounds, various treatments have been developed. Widely used traditional techniques such as asepsis, debridement, and surgery are aimed to prevent further damage and aid scarring but have many disadvantages, including low efficiency results, high healing time rates, and elevated costs. Alternative and novel strategies, such as bioactive dressings and regenerative medicine, are intended to achieve functional and aesthetic tissue recovery while minimizing the rejection risk in other techniques like skin flaps and grafts. The present review outlines the key skin characteristics, a general description of the more common types of wounds and their incidence, and tissue engineered strategies commonly used for skin tissue regeneration.

Introduction: complicated skin injuries have become a global health problem, being difficult to treat due to the body’s limited healing process. Many studies aim to enhance traditional treatments for skin injuries, which have many disadvantages. Therefore, wound healing research is aiming towards tissue engineering options, such as decellularized matrix, which have shown great healing and biocompatibility competencies. Objectives: to obtain and characterize the properties of a decellularized biological matrix derived from the small intestine of animals. Methods: porcine small intestine was prepared and decellularized using four different methods: Triton X-100, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and sodium deoxycholate (SDC) for one or two cycles of 6 hours or 24 hours, and peracetic acid for one cycle of 2 hours. The remaining DNA was quantified with Nanodrop and electrophoresis characterization. Histology stains and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) were performed to assess surface structure and integrity. Resistance assays were conducted to measure mechanical strength. Finally, degradability assays with different buffers were performed. Results: no differences between the decellularization protocols regarding remaining DNA were found, making protocols of one cycle of six hours more efficient. With the least remaining DNA content and better structure perseveration, TX-100 could be considered as the best protocol. No statistically difference between protocols and native tissue were found during the mechanical analysis. Biodegradability assays showed the expected degradability properties of the produced matrix. Conclusions: promising results were achieved to obtain decellularized biological matrices that could serve as a treatment for complicated skin wounds. More in vitro and molecular studies should be carried out in future studies to further characterize these scaffolds.
