Clinical Insights in to Wound Healing: An Atlas

by Dr. Arun Bal (Author)

Wound healing is a complex process, involving interplay of multiple cells, vascular tissues, and activated biomolecules. Impaired healing is often a consequence of disrupted normal healing process because of several biological factors, causing development of a non-healing chronic wound. Thus, it is of utmost importance to understand the nature of wounds and damaged tissues, cause of wounds, presenting characteristics of the wounds, presence of infection in a wound, etc. for an accurate initial assessment of acute wounds and timely therapeutic intervention.

This book, “Clinical Insights into Wound Healing – An Atlas”, authored by Dr. Arun Bal, a expert diabetes foot surgeon, is an exclusive publication on wound healing, offering an all-inclusive clinical information on the basic and advanced concepts of wounds as well as their care and management plan. In this book, Dr. Arun Bal provides a precise account of the nature, etiology, and classification of wounds, wound healing process, assessment and evaluation of wounds, and wound care and management strategies under four different sections. Each section is a fresh revisit of varied concepts about wounds, wound healing, and wound care, with up-to-date clinical information on clinically relevant subject matter.

 This book intends to present a basic understanding of wounds and their management to the primary care physicians, surgeons, and postgraduate students.
