These factors include age, chronic inflammation, phenotypic changes in such cells as macrophages, fibroblasts, and keratinocytes, colder, alkaline wound milieu, wound related hypoxemia, and diabetes. Other factors implicated include reperfusion injury, poor patient compliance, presence of undiagnosed and therefore unmanaged biofilms and wound pain. The past decades have yielded reliable evidence-based guidelines and standardized care, but the healing of diabetic foot wounds continues to be unpredictable notwithstanding these advances, while the recurrence rates are also high. The benefits of technology in wound diagnosis are evidence-based and the use of this technology also features in guidelines. However, the same argument cannot be extended to adjuvant devices to facilitate wound closure even though many devices potentially benefit wound healing. Chronic Wound Management describes how innovation is based on technology that itself informs evidence, the gap between the evidence available, the performance of technology and how do we bridge this gap. It reviews the lessons learnt from the COVID-19 pandemic and whether traditional medicine systems offer us real or imaginary benefits. Consequently, this book is an important addition to the literature in the area and an essential read for all healthcare professionals working with these patients. 001463788 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001463788 650_0 $$aWounds and injuries$$xTreatment. 001463788 650_0 $$aWounds and injuries$$xTreatment$$xEquipment and supplies. 001463788 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001463788 7001_ $$aMani, Raj,$$eeditor. 001463788 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tCHRONIC WOUND MANAGEMENT.$$d[Place of publication not identified] : SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PU, 2023$$z3031261097$$w(OCoLC)1361685403 001463788 852__ $$bebk 001463788 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-26110-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001463788 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1463788$$pGLOBAL_SET 001463788 980__ $$aBIB 001463788 980__ $$aEBOOK 001463788 982__ $$aEbook 001463788 983__ $$aOnline 001463788 994__ $$a92$$bISE
