A research team has successfully developed an electronic suture that can monitor changes in inflammation levels around wounds in real time. The electronic suture is expected to contribute ...

As a wound heals, it goes through several stages: clotting to stop bleeding, immune system response, scabbing, and scarring. A wearable device called "a-Heal," designed by engineers at the University ...

For the first time, scientists have been able to establish that our perception of the passing of time can independently influence how a wound will heal. While preliminary, this novel study opens the ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The complex process of wound healing has long challenged medical professionals seeking to monitor recovery accurately and non-invasively. Traditional methods of assessing wound ...

As a wound heals, it goes through several stages: clotting to stop bleeding, immune system response, scabbing, and scarring. A wearable device called “a-Heal,” designed by engineers at the University ...

Wavy wounds heal faster than straight wounds because shapes influence cell movements, a team of researchers at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) study has found. Using ...

Scientists have created a gel “ink” that encourages external wound healing, resulting in shorter recovery times. Using a custom 3D printing pen, the ink fills open wounds with particles that ...

When you’ve had a wound that required stitches, the recovery period can feel frustratingly slow. Whether from surgery, an accident, or another injury, properly cared for stitches not only heal faster ...
