Abstract
The advances in technologies and emergence of new therapeutic approaches have led to the rapid improvement in the field of wound healing. Herbal ointments have enormous role to play in wound healing and are widely used in clinical practice these days. This article reviews the wound healing effect of an Ayurvedic formulation in Ointment form through clinical trials with an intention to maximize its clinical effectiveness and accelerate its integration into wider clinical practice. Ghanasatwa (Water extract) of six individual drugs known to have good wound healing properties were prepared and the extract formulated as herbal ointment - Jatyadi cream. This was used to treat patients of chronic non healing wounds devoid of infection, i.e., where tissue regeneration had begun. Wound measurements were done before and during the course of treatment. Tissue biopsy to estimate the MAGS score indicating angiogenesis prior to and during the course of treatment was done. In most of the cases, there was a progressive increase in the MAGS score along with reduction in wound size, with time, indicating the efficacy of the formulation in wound healing.
