Trends in pressure injury prevalence rates and average days to healing associated with adoption of a comprehensive wound care program and technology in skilled nursing facilities in the United States
CONCLUSION: Use of technology as part of a comprehensive wound care program has the potential to not only improve patient care and quality of life, but to realize considerable annual savings in additional PI out-of-pocket expenses (up to $1 410 000) and of clinicians' time (44 808 hours).PMID:38417821 | DOI:10.25270/wnds/23089 (Source: Wounds)

A case of necrotizing fasciitis of the breast following lumpectomy and oncoplastic closure
CONCLUSION: This case exemplifies how frequent postoperative surveillance, a low threshold for intervention, and efficient coordination of care are vital to minimizing the morbidity and mortality risks associated with NF of the breast.PMID:38417817 (Source: Wounds)

VGG19 demonstrates the highest accuracy rate in a nine-class wound classification task among various deep learning networks: a pilot study
CONCLUSION: These findings indicate the potential for VGG19 to be the basis for a more comprehensive and detailed AI-based wound diagnostic system. Eventually, such systems also may aid patients and non-wound care professionals in diagnosing and treating wounds.PMID:38417818 (Source: Wounds)

Differences in burn wound size estimation between points of referral and the burn unit: experience at a major burn center in southwestern Nigeria
CONCLUSION: There is a significant difference in burn size estimation between burn unit physicians and referring physicians. This finding underscores the need for continuous education on burn estimation to aid proper referral and management.PMID:38417819 (Source: Wounds)

Cisgender cellular tissue-based products improve wound healing
Wounds. 2024 Jan;36(1):21-22.ABSTRACTNeither the CTP sex effect of female CTP derived from cryopreserved human placental membranes, nor male CTP bioengineered from living human keratinocytes and foreskin fibroblasts has been described. Healing in wounds was examined to establish the CTP sex' s role in both males and females. Cisgender CTP wounds had better closure. Overall, male PC, PC-End, and CC rates over time were better than female rates. Outcomes were affected by access, etiology, and follow-up.PMID:38417820 (Source: Wounds)
