Innovations and Emerging Technologies in Wound Care

Editat de Amit Gefen
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 oct 2019
Innovations and Emerging Technologies in Wound Care is a pivotal book on the prevention and management of chronic and non-healing wounds. The book clearly presents the research and evidence that should be considered when planning care interventions to improve health related outcomes for patients. New and emerging technologies are discussed and identified, along with tactics on how they can be integrated into clinical practice. This book offers readers a bridge between biomedical engineering and medicine, with an emphasis on technological innovations. It includes contributions from engineers, scientists, clinicians and industry professionals.
Users will find this resource to be a complete picture of the latest knowledge on the tolerance of human tissues to sustained mechanical and thermal loads that also provides a deeper understanding of the risk for onset and development of chronic wounds.


  • Describes the state-of-knowledge in wound research, including tissue damage cascades and healing processes
  • Covers all state-of-the-art technology in wound prevention, diagnosis, prognosis and treatment
  • Discusses emerging research directions and future technology trends in the field of wound prevention and care
  • Offers a bench-to-bedside exploration of the key issues that affect the practice of prevention and management of non-healing wounds
