Adjunctive virtual reality for procedural pain management of burn patients during dressing change or physical therapy: A systematic review and meta ‐analysis of randomized controlled trials
AbstractDressing change and physical therapy are extremely painful procedures for burn patients. Adjunctive virtual reality therapy reportedly reduces pain when added to analgesics, but a summary analysis of the data has yet to be performed. We conducted this systematic review and meta ‐analysis of randomized controlled trials to verify the pain‐reducing efficacy of virtual reality among burn patients undergoing dressing change or physical therapy. We searched MEDLINE (via PubMed), EMBASE (via OVID), and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (via OVID) for relevan t trials based on predetermined eligibilit...

A smartphone ‐based teleconsultation system for the management of chronic pressure injuries
We presented strong evidence documenting the utilization of a smartphone, patient ‐driven system, and demonstrated that the measurements obtained were comparable to the ones obtained by a trained, on‐site, wound team. Furthermore, we confirmed agreement between automatically generated recommendations and primary manual recommendations. (Source: Wound Repair and Regeneration)

Does laser therapy improve the wound healing process after tooth extraction? A systematic review
AbstractLaser therapy could amplify the oral wound healing process by stimulating cell regeneration after injury, attenuating pain, and modulating the immune system. The purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate whether the application of laser therapy improved alveolar healing after tooth extractions. Eight electronic databases were screened: MedLine (PubMed), The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Scopus, Lilacs, Ibecs, Scielo, and BBO. Three reviewers independently assessed the title and abstracts of potentially relevant studies. Only clinical trials and animal experiments that evaluated the wound healing effect ...

Evidence supporting wound care end points relevant to clinical practice and patients ’ lives. Part 2. Literature survey
AbstractPatients with wounds bear significant clinical, personal, and economic burdens yet complete wound healing is the only United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recognized primary clinical trial end point. The overall goal of this project is to work with FDA to expand the list of acceptable primary end points, recognizing that new and innovative treatments, devices, and drugs may not have complete healing as the focus. Part 1 of the project surveyed 628 wound care experts who identified and content ‐validated 15 end points most relevant to clinical practice and benefitting patients’ lives as primary outco...
