This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
2. Concept of Literature Review
A literature review is a self-contained unit in a study which
analyses critically a segment of published body of
knowledge through summary, classification and
comparison of prior research studies and theoretical
articles.
3. Importance of Literature Review
• Identifying research topic: finds out the untouched area or
areas of contradiction
• Developing ideas to collect data: gives idea that how
similar nature of researches was collected data
• Knowing methods of data analysis: gives idea of most
permanent tool for analysis in given set of data
• Know the research design: Gets idea about appropriate
design
• Assessing the success of various research design:
evaluate the result of various research designs that help to
find out success of various research designs.
4. Purpose and Functions of Literature
Review
• To know the research conducted in the chosen field
• To identify the gap
• To develop theoretical framework
• To develop research design
• To update on current issues
• To know the methods of data analysis
• To know the research design
• To assess the success of various research designs
5. Sources of Literature Review
• Books
• Research articles
• Abstracts
• Reports
• Dissertation
• Directories
• The internet
6. Phases in Literature Review
• Identifying the relevant sources: helps to know the source of
appropriate materials
• Obtaining literatures: Helps to get the literatures available
• Reading: researcher should select materials, find the related facts
and note down the required information.
• Extracting the relevant information: Taking information that are
useful to the study
• Evaluating the contents of the literatures: Materials collected are
to be evaluated so as to find out the prominent materials
• Writing up the literature review: Managing the materials in proper
format.
7. Evaluating the Literature
• Accuracy: Check the accuracy based on the nature of the study
• Author: Prominent author or not
• Publisher : Prominent publisher or not
• Scope: Scope of the previous study and your study differs or not
• Style
• Use of methodology:
• Illustrations, tables and diagrams
• Update information.
8. Qualities of a Good Literature
Review
• Fact information: should have correct name of author, date of
publication and the findings.
• Note: write down the objectives and the major findings
• Evidence : Must be supported by evidence
• Evaluation: evaluate every material
• Use of appropriate words:
• Reference list: must contain the reference list covering all used
materials
9. Meta Analysis
The term Meta Analysis refers to an analysis of analysis.
Generally in traditional literature review researchers
searched information from variety of sources including in-
house and out-house documents (internet, libraries),, etc.
10. Purposes of Meta Analysis
• To establish statistical significance with studies that have
conflicting results.
• To develop a more correct estimate of effect magnitude.
• To provide a more complex analysis related to harm,
safety, benefits, etc.
• To examine sub-groups with individual members that are
not statistically significant.
11. Process/Steps in Meta Analysis
• Identifying the relevant variables: find out the variables
that are to be analyzed under study
• Locating the relevant research: locate all the literature
whether they are in-house or out-house
• Conducting meta analysis
a. Comparing study: can compare with the methods and
findings of different studies
b. Combining studies: Related studies are to be combined and
draw the results.
