The document discusses recent advances in wound healing, including silver-based dressings, negative pressure therapy, advanced dressings like hydrocolloids and alginates, skin substitutes, growth factors, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Silver dressings provide antimicrobial properties and sustained silver ion release. Negative pressure therapy promotes wound healing through macro and micro strain. Advanced dressings maintain a moist wound environment. Skin substitutes and growth factors can accelerate healing.
