Understanding wound dressing material behaviors and how to quantitatively describe material microarchitectures can be used to achieve desirable performances of wound dressings through appropriate processing and manufacturing. Applied Science and Engineering of Wound Dressings and their Clinical Effectiveness: From Design Principles to Physiological Performance addresses all the measurable physical, chemical, biomaterial, fluid structure, mechanical and thermal characteristics that are imperative for a dressing to effectively treat acute and chronic wounds. Divided into two parts, this book explores and discusses the properties of wound dressings, the structure of these dressings and how these dressings interact with the skin surface based on scientific investigation and testing. It also discuss potential tradeoffs between engineering and clinical dressing requirements such as when a process and the associated costs of manufacturing affect some clinical performance characteristics of a dressing, e.g., the ease of application and removal, the ability of the dressing to stay in place, potential skin stripping damage from repetitive removal of dressings or additional factors that shape the ease of clinical use and medical benefits of dressings. This book will be valuable for all professionals involved in the treatment of all types of wounds, including biomedical engineers, material scientists, clinicians across all the relevant medical disciplines, industrialists and regulatory professionals in the field of wound care, academics, scientists and entrepreneurs in the field of medical devices, and undergraduate and graduate bioengineering and medical engineering students who are interested in the structure and function of wound dressings. Focuses specifically on the holistic science, engineering and medical-clinical applications of wound dressings Provides the most up-to-date knowledge on the design and evaluation of performances of wound dressings in both the acute and chronic wound fields Reviews all the relevant measurable physical, chemical, biomaterial, fluid-structure, mechanical and thermal characteristics that are important for a wound dressing to effectively treat acute and chronic tissue damage Describes the clinical practice and patient experience criteria that are pivotal for a dressing to effectively treat acute injuries and chronic wounds Discusses the direct healthcare costs involved in wound care including the hospital environment, as well as the specific nursing costs, the cost of the actual dressings and their supply/storage and the costs associated with applying and removing the prescribed dressings (at a certain frequency) or treating any wound infections
