The exaggerated employ of expensive biological actives as ingredients in biomedical remedies are necessary to defeat bedsores.
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Pharmacy (IOSRPHR) - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 10
Abstract
Bedsores are injuries to skin and underlying tissue resulting from prolonged pressure on the skin that occur especially in dependent old patient forced to immobility on bed. Common treatments provide the simple moisturizing of the purulent area thanks to powders that are apt to uptake pus and other organic fluid (as Unna's ointment or vanishing creams, containing Magnesia usta,Kieselguhr, Oenothera oil, Borrago officinalis or Tocopheryl acetate), but they do not approach the chief problem of vascularization that is always decreased.
