Primjena suportivnih obloga za rane važan je čimbenik za uspješan rezultat suvremenog liječenja kroničnog vrijeda. Pravilan odabir obloge ključan je za brži i kvalitetniji, te u konačnici i ...isplativiji ishod liječenja. S obzirom na izrazito veliki broj generičkih vrsta i njihovih varijanti, kao glavni element za pravilan odabir obloge najvažnije je poznavati mehanizme djelovanja i kliničke dokaze o učinkovitosti obloge, na što više lokalnih faktora u vrijedu koji odgađaju i otežavaju cijeljenje vrijeda. Pojava suportivne obloge koja ima svojstva djelovanja na klinički identificirana tri ključna lokalna faktora, koji u najvećoj mjeri otežavaju cijeljenje vrijeda, a to su eksudat, infekcija i biofi lm, dobiven je značajan iskorak u stvaranju optimalnih uvjeta za brže cijeljenje kroničnog vrijeda. Nove obloge, koje objedinjavaju hidrofi ber tehnologiju i Ag+ tehnologiju, omogućuju učinkovitu antimikrobnu kontrolu i istodobno preveniraju ponovno formiranje bofi lma, najtvrdokornijeg čimbenika koji
podržava kroničnu upalnu reakciju i time značajno odgađa cijeljenje vrijeda.
Application of supportive wound dressing is an important segment for successful result of modern treatment of chronic ulcers. The right choice of dressing is the key to faster, better, and ultimately ...more cost-effective treatment outcome. Due to the extremely large number of generic types and variants, the main element for proper dressing selection is to know the mechanisms of action and clinical evidence of the effectiveness because of many local factors that delay ulcer healing. The advent of wound dressing that is efficient at the three clinically identified key local factors that largely impede the healing of ulcers, i.e. exudate, infection and biofilm, has made a significant step forward in the creation of optimal conditions for faster healing of chronic ulcers. The complexity of the effects of new technologies, which integrate hidrofiber technology and Ag + technology, provides effective antimicrobial control while at the same time preventing biofilm reformation.
Current knowledge and proofs of biofilm, interactions between various bacterial species and overall virulence of microbes play a role in delayed healing of wound and development of infection. High ...quality description of clinical symptoms and current knowledge of microbes provide an excellent guideline for creating the strategy of wound treatment. Owing to better understanding of the role of biofilm in prolongation of healing time and facts about biofilm system and structure, scientists have developed the Ag+ technology. This technology has strong synergistic effects of the general and antimicrobial activity of ionic silver and specific compounds, which have proved efficient in biofilm obstruction and removal.
Današnje spoznaje i dokazi o biofilmu, interakcije između različitih bakterijskih vrsta, te ukupna virulencija mikroba imaju utjecaj na odgođeno cijeljenje rane i razvoj infekcije. Kvalitetan opis ...kliničkih simptoma uz suvremena saznanja o mikrobima rane odličan su vodič za kreiranje strategije liječenja kroničnog vrijeda. Zbog sve boljeg razumijevanja uloge biofilma u produljenju vremena liječenja i znanja o sustavu i strukturi biofi lma istraživači su razvili Ag+tehnologiju. Ta tehnologija ima jake sinergističke učinke između općenite antimikrobne aktivnosti ionskog srebra i specifi čnih spojeva koji pomažu u učinkovitosti ometanja i uklanjanja biofilma.
Chronic venous insufficiency starts by promoting the case of events. This results in pathologic venous and tissue changes consequential to chronic venous insufficiency. In this article, chronic ...venous insufficiency is defined as an abnormal function of the venous system due to venous valvular incompetence with or without associated venous outflow obstruction, which may involve the superficial venous system, deep venous system, or both. Long-term venous hypertension may present by a variety of clinical manifestations in terms of the severity and duration of venous circulation damage. Venous leg ulcer occurs in distal part of the shin, mostly around medial malleolus. The base of the ulcer is often covered by a yellowish fibrin layer. The surrounding skin is hyperpigmented, usually irritated by ulcer secretion, and inflamed. Arterial leg ulcer is caused by arterial insufficiency. It is round-shaped with dry basis and involves deeper structures, up to tendons. The skin is dry, atrophic, cool, pale, smooth, and hairless. Therapy of ulcers is demanding and consists of numerous general measures, topical and/or systemic therapy. Topical therapy consists of cleansing, mechanical debridement, disinfection and stimulation of granulations and epithelialization with prevention of secondary infection. Therapy with currently available bio-occlusive wound dressings is most effective. These dressings are hydrocolloids, hydropolymers, transparent films, alginate, and ionic silver. Vascular protectors, venetonics and antiaggregation medications can be used in systemic therapy.
Moderno liječenje rane podrazumijeva primjenu metoda koje su uz bolje rezultate i jeftinije. Postoji čitav niz ekonomskih izraza (cost benefit i cost efficiency) vezanih uz problematiku rane koji se ...mogu primijeniti i na bilo koju drugu medicinsku metodu. Ovaj članak pojašnjava osnovnu terminologiju i praktičnu primjenu ekonomskih analiza određenoga liječenja. Osim toga, procjena primjene nove medicinske tehnologije podrazumijeva: opću procjenu, potrebe bolesnika, kliničko istraživanje te socijalne, etičke i zakonske aspekte da bi tek tada bila prihvaćena kao metoda izbora u liječenju.
