A self-pumping dressing with in situ modification of non-woven fabric for promoting diabetic wound healing

Lubin Zhou et al.

Summary: Improper management of wound exudate delays diabetic wound healing. A novel diabetic wound dressing with double-layer structure and hydrophobic nanofibers on a hydrophilic non-woven fabric is reported. It diverts excessive exudate away from the wound bed and prevents rewetting, resulting in low inflammatory response and excellent wound healing. The self-pumping dressing has clinical significance for designing next-generation dressing for diabetic wound healing.

Trilayered Fibrous Dressing with Wettability Gradient for Spontaneous and Directional Transport of Massive Exudate and Wound Healing Promotion

Lei Liu et al.

Summary: Excessive exudate at wound sites poses challenges to wound treatment. In this study, a trilayered fibrous dressing with a stable wettability gradient was constructed by electrospinning polyurethane and polyvinylidene fluoride onto cotton fabric. The dressing exhibited rapid unidirectional transport and high hydrostatic pressure, allowing for efficient exudate removal. In vivo experiments showed that the trilayered dressing can accelerate wound healing, especially in the early stages of wound occurrence.

A Multifunctional Janus Electrospun Nanofiber Dressing with Biofluid Draining, Monitoring, and Antibacterial Properties for Wound Healing

Xinming Zhang et al.

Summary: Wound healing greatly affects patients' health and produces medical burden. Therefore, a multifunctional electrospun nanofiber dressing was developed to inhibit MRSA, drain excessive biofluid, and monitor wound pH level. The Janus dressing, with encapsulated P2W18/PLA nanofiber layer for MRSA inhibition and PSP/PAN nanofiber layer for pH indication, exhibited good biocompatibility and accelerated wound healing. This multifunctional Janus electrospun nanofiber dressing would be beneficial for wound management and treatment.

Characterization of direct ink write pure silk fibroin based on alcohol post-treatments

Enric Casanova-Batlle et al.

Summary: Silk fibroin (SF) has been used in medical devices due to its biodegradability, high tensile strength, and mechanical robustness. However, regenerated silk materials tend to become brittle in the dry state. This study presents an optimized process for producing regenerated SF bioink and investigates the effects of post-treatments on its mechanical properties. The results show that different post-treatments have distinct effects on the silk properties, suggesting that the molecular structure of SF can be controlled by the post-treatment process.
