Advance in Wound Care Management and Research

In the "Understanding the Basic Principles of Wound Healing" session, we will delve into the fundamental mechanisms that underpin the intricate process of wound repair. This session aims to equip healthcare professionals, researchers, and students with essential knowledge about the physiological aspects of wound healing, laying a strong foundation for advanced wound care practices and interventions.

Session Highlights:

During this enlightening session, esteemed experts in wound care will explore the cellular and molecular processes involved in tissue repair. Participants will gain insights into the dynamic interplay of various cell types, growth factors, and signalling pathways that orchestrate the healing response. We will discuss the critical stages of wound healing, from haemostasis and inflammation to proliferation and tissue remodelling, and highlight the importance of each phase in achieving optimal outcomes.

Key Topics:

• Cellular Players in Wound Healing: Understanding the roles of fibroblasts, macrophages, and epithelial cells in the wound microenvironment.
• Signalling Pathways: Unravelling the complex interactions between cytokines, chemokine, and growth factors during the healing process.
• Angiogenesis and Neovascularization: Examining the formation of new blood vessels and its significance in wound repair.
• Extracellular Matrix Remodelling: The role of collagen, elastin, and other components in tissue regeneration.
• Factors Affecting Wound Healing: Identifying systemic and local factors that may impact the healing trajectory.
• Wound Assessment: Tools and techniques for accurate wound evaluation and classification.
