Wound care is a branch of healthcare focused on the treatment and management of wounds, including cuts, burns, pressure ulcers, and other types of injuries to the skin. It involves cleaning and dressing wounds, monitoring healing progress, preventing infection, and promoting tissue repair. Wound care may be provided in various healthcare settings, including hospitals, outpatient clinics, long-term care facilities, and home care. Research in wound care aims to improve treatment methods, develop new technologies and products, enhance patient outcomes, and reduce healthcare costs associated with wound management. Topics of study may include wound healing mechanisms, wound dressing materials, infection control strategies, pain management techniques, and patient education.
