Track 01: Wound and Wound care

Wounds are the sort of injuries that happen relatively quickly throughout that skin is torn, cut or perforated or blunt trauma causes a contusion. It ought to be caused by associate act, sort of a shot, fall, or surgical procedure by associate disease or by an underlying condition. The classes and causes of wounds are wide go, and health care professionals have many various ways in which of classifying them. They're going to be chronic, just like the skin ulcers caused by diabetes mellitus, or acute, sort of a shot wound or animal bite. Wounds could also be expressed as open, throughout that the skin has been compromised and underlying tissues are exposed, or closed, throughout that the skin has not been compromised, but trauma to underlying structures has occurred.

Track 02: Wound care and Infection Control

Infected wounds are wounds within which bacteria or different microorganisms have colonized, inflicting either a delay in wound healing or deterioration of the wound. Most wounds are generally contaminated by microorganism. However, infected wounds result once the body's immune defenses are flooded or cannot deal with traditional bacterial growth. An infected wound could also be characterized by raised or sustained pain, redness or swelling, pus discharge, unhealthy odor or non-healing of the wound. Persons with weakened immune functions, like diabetics or the aged, are in danger for wound infections, since they cannot defend infections simply. The hindrance of wound infection ought to be a primary management objective for all health care practitioners.

Track 03: Wound care and Ulcers

An Ulcer could be a sore on the skin or a mucous membrane, accompanied by the disintegration of tissue. Ulcers may end up in complete loss of the epidermis and infrequently portions of the dermis and even subcutaneous fat. The injuries from that ulcers arise will be caused by a large kind of factors; however the main cause is impaired blood circulation. Especially, chronic wounds and ulcers are caused by poor circulation, either through cardiovascular problems or external pressure from a bed or a wheelchair. An awfully common and dangerous variety of skin ulcers are caused by what are referred to as pressure-sensitive sores, a lot of normally referred to as bed sores and that are frequent in people who are infirm or who use wheelchairs for long periods. Different causes manufacturing skin ulcers include bacterial or viral infections, fungal infections and cancers. Blood disorders and chronic wounds may result in skin ulcers also. Ulcers that heal at intervals twelve weeks are typically classified as acute and longer-lasting ones as chronic.

Track 04: Wound care and Diabetes

Wound infection in diabetic patients is a public health problem. Infection of foot ulcers is usually seen in diabetic patients and may be a substantial morbid event. Diabetic foot ulcer is an open sore or wound that most usually happens on the bottom of the foot in about 15 % of patients with diabetes. Of these who develop a foot ulcer, six % are hospitalized because of infection or different ulcer related complication. Ulcers type because of a mixture of factors, like lack of feeling within the foot, poor circulation, foot deformities, irritation like friction or pressure and trauma, furthermore as period of diabetes. The first goal within the treatment of foot ulcers is to get healing as shortly as possible. The quicker the healing, the less probability for an infection.

Track 05: Wound care and Lymphedema

Lymphedema is abnormal swelling caused by a lymphatic system. It is typically found within the arms or legs and may also have an effect on the trunk, face, or genitalia. Primary lymphedema is a congenital problem caused by a decrease within the range or size of the lymphatic vessels. Secondary lymphedema results from harm caused by surgery, radiotherapy, injury, infection, venous insufficiency, scar tissue, cancer and inflammation. It is a result of an accumulation of protein-rich fluid in superficial tissues. Early stages of dropsy could also be quickly reduced by easy elevation of the limb. While not correct treatment, however, the protein-rich swelling causes a progressive hardening of the affected tissues, together with recurrent cellulitis and probably fungal infection. In general, the foremost severe wounds occur within the most advanced stages of lymphedema. Correct identification, early detection and acceptable treatment will effectively slow the progression of lymphedema.

Track 06: Wound care and Nutrition:

Nutrition plays a vital role in wound healing and wound care practices and nutritionary support must be considered an elementary part of wound management. Wound healing is a complex process; it is the method of substituting wounded tissue with new tissue made by the body that demands a raised consumption of energy and specific nutrients, notably protein and calories. Poor nutrition before or throughout the healing method might delay healing and impair wound strength, creating the wound additional vulnerable to breakdown. Neglecting the nutritional health of an individual with a wound will compromise the whole wound management process. While not adequate nutrition healing could also be impaired and prolonged. Improved nutritionary status permits the body to heal wounds like the accelerated wound healing seen with nutritionary supplementation.

Track 07: Wound care and Dressing

Wound dressings and devices form an important segment of the medical and pharmaceutical wound care market worldwide. Dressings are classified in a number of ways depending on their function in the wound (wound debridement, antibacterial agents, occlusive, absorbent, adherence), type of material employed to produce the dressing (e.g. hydrocolloid, alginate, collagen) and the physical form of the dressing (ointment, film, foam, gel). Dressings are further classified into traditional dressings, modern and advanced dressings, skin replacement products and wound healing devices. The ideal dressing should achieve rapid healing at reasonable cost with minimal inconvenience to the patient. Wound care and dressing selection should be a holistic, structured process involving close cooperation between medical and nursing staff. Three factors must be considered when assessing the requirement for a wound dressing which include general health of the patient, local environment of the wound and specific properties of the dressing.

Track 08: Wound Healing and Tissue Repair

Wound healing is a specific biological process related to the general phenomenon of growth and tissue regeneration. Wound healing progresses through a series of interdependent and overlapping stages in which a variety of cellular and matrix components act together to reestablish the integrity of damaged tissue and replacement of lost tissue. Wound healing has four continuous phases including haemostasis, inflammation, proliferation and wound remodelling with scar tissue deposition. In an attempt to reduce the wound burden, much effort has focused on understanding the physiology of healing and wound care with an emphasis on new therapeutic approaches and the continuing development of technologies for acute and long term wound management. The clinician working in wound care needs to become a detective. All possible factors and cofactors that may influence healing must be identified. Due to the multifactorial nature of chronic wounds, a thorough health and physical assessment is mandatory.

Track 09: Wound Care and Treatment

Wound management is a significant and growing health burden on the community. Wound management can be a complex treatment area, with chronic wounds, acute wounds and surgical wounds each having their own characteristics; but wounds, much like the people affected by them, need to be treated on an individual basis. Successful treatment of difficult wounds requires assessment of the entire patient and not just the wound. Considerable progress has been made on advanced products in the field of wound healing and a number of new therapeutic approaches are now available. It is hoped that continued advances will come about which, when combined with basic medical and surgical approaches, will accelerate the healing of chronic wounds to an extent that is still not possible with current therapeutic agents. It may also be expedient to employ individualized therapeutic approaches for treating specific wound types and individuals using emerging tissue engineering technologies. Such advanced approaches can help treat chronic wounds in a clinically efficient manner.

Track 10: Wound Care and Nursing

As the science of wound care evolves into a more complex environment, nursing is challenged to meet this complexity. Traditionally and generically, wound healing has been under the patronage of basic nursing care practice encompassing dressings and infection control but also promotion of therapeutic nutrition, mobility, psychosocial support, hygiene, and comfort. At all levels, in practice settings spanning from critical care through palliative care, from hospitals to battlefield, and from gene therapy to gauze, it is the nurse who is principally caring for patients with wounds. The role of nursing in wound care from a historical and evolutionary perspective helps to characterize the trend towards advanced practice nursing in the wound care specialty. Delineation of nursing roles consistent with Nursing Education, licensure and certification will enhance collaboration with the wound team and achieve best outcomes for patients.

Track 11: Wound Care and Pain Management

Pain is a typical affair of patients with chronic wounds. Wound infection can postpone healing and cause and intensify wound pain. The principle underlying cause of infection associated wound pain is the inflammatory reaction stimulated through the infecting. This response motives the discharge of inflammatory mediators and stimulates the creation of enzymes and free radicals, which can cause tissue damage. Dressing changes are a predominant contributor to wound pain. Pain management must encompass pain evaluation before, during and after each dressing change to make sure that the affected person’s pain is managed successfully. Such progressing assessment will allow healthcare professionals to identify any triggers that can be modified or avoided to reduce pain.

Track 12: Wound Care and Hyperbaric Medicine

The non-healing wounds occur when the level of oxygen in and across the wound drops under a particular stage and your body's natural cure system and ability to battle infection emerge as generally impaired. Chronic wounds such as these require specialized wound care and mostly, hyperbaric remedy healing. Patients who can benefit from hyperbaric oxygen therapy include Patients with non-healing wounds, Cancer patients with tissue damage as a result of radiation therapy, certain advanced diabetic foot wounds and chronic bone infections. Hyperbaric oxygen treatments in chosen patients can facilitate healing by increasing tissue oxygen tension, thus providing the wound with more favorable conditions for repair. Therefore, HBO therapy can be most important factor to any comprehensive wound care program.

Track 13: Wound Care and Regenerative Medicine

The field of regenerative Medicine has been focusing cutting edge innovations to heal cutaneous wounds. There are various regenerative medicine advancements being researched for the treatment of skin diseases, wounds and burns. The larger part of innovations is being produced for the treatment of ulcers connected with diabetes and chronic or complex wounds. Regenerative Medicine including cellular therapy and tissue engineering is a quickly developing field that is being examined as an option for the restoration of function in many diseases. The application of stem cells to wounds is advantageous, as stem cells have the ability to differentiate and replace the lost or damaged tissue, as well as influence multiple biological pathways at once via paracrine signaling. Stem cell biology and regenerative medicine are rapidly expanding fields. The introduction of new technology and the emergence of novel stem cell populations have allowed researchers to take a more in-depth approach to the study of specific diseases and biological processes.

Track 14: Burns and Advanced Wound Care

The treatment of burn wounds has evolved over many years via clinical and preclinical studies. Big advancements were made in patient care, which include monitoring wound healing, developing novel graft and coverage options, inflammation control, dietary needs optimization, and testing unique pharmacological interventions. Current techniques to burn management are based totally on an understanding of the biology and body structure of human skin and pathophysiology of the burn wound. Improvements are also needed to accelerate wound closure, healing and to improve mental care to promote successful reintegration. Studies in infection, contamination, stem cells, grafting, biomarkers, infection control, and rehabilitation will maintain to enhance individualized care and create new treatment options. Future studies will maintain to discover novel goals and treatment paradigms to enhance burn wound care.
