Comparison of Vacuum Assisted Closure with Conventional Dressing

Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 3

Abstract

One of the most common causes for admission in surgical ward is non healing ulcer. In which diabetes is the most common etiology. In most of the cases, hospital stay of many weeks is required for management of the above. In many cases they ultimately go for amputation. Acute and chronic wounds affect at least 1% of the population. Regardless of etiology, wounds are difficult to treat if coexisting factors (eg, infection or diabetes mellitus) prevent regular wound healing
