The management of open wounds: acute and chronic.
The history of wound healing dates back thousands of years before Christ to the Ancient Egyptians. Detailed tomb and temple hieroglyphics depict wound treatments of that era. Through the historic milestones set forth by Hippocrates (400 BC) to Lister (1800s), current theory of wound management and trends have evolved. During the last several decades, thanks to breakthroughs in research and technological advances, wound care has taken a giant leap forward.
