“…Despite a multidisciplinary approach, the management of patients with chronic wounds is a major challenge 1 . In addition to their profound effect on the quality of life of affected individuals, about 2% of the health budget is destined to wound care [2][3][4] .…”

“…Successful wound management requires an understanding of the wound healing process and the identification and prevention of factors that may delay or interrupt wound healing [2][3][4][5] . Early wound treatment permits to reduce public health expenditure and prevents impairment of the quality of life of affected patients [2][3][4][5] .…”

PURPOSE:To investigate the effect of Brassica oleracea herbal balsam on the healing of skin wounds in rats. METHODS:Twenty four rats (Wistar, 60 days, 250 g) were divided into four groups: untreated animals (C) and treated with the ointment (T), subdivided into two experimental times (seven and 16 days). A 3cm 2 skin wound was made in the back of all animals.100 ml of the Brassica oleracea was applied twice a day in T group. Biometric analysis was made with images captured at one, four, seven, ten, 13, and 16 days. At seven and 16 days, animals of each group were euthanized. The wound area removed was processed for histological and histomorphometric analysis to quantify birefringent collagen fibers. Statistical analysis was made considering p < 0.05 as significant. RESULTS:Biometric analysis revealed no significant differences between groups in both experimental times studied. However, histomorphometric analysis showed that the number of type I collagen fibers was significantly higher in the specimens of the group T16 compared to the other groups. CONCLUSION:Brassica oleracea accelerated the wound healing process increasing the number of type I collagen fibers and the maturity of the newly formed tissue.

Heart failure (HF) is the major contributor to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Given its rising prevalence, the costs of HF care can be expected to increase. Multidisciplinary management of HF can improve quality of care and survival. However, specialized HF programmes are not widely available in most European countries. These circumstances underlie the suggestion of the Heart Failure Association (HFA)
