Abstract

Acute and hard-to-heal wounds are a significant burden to both a patient's quality of life and resources in healthcare systems. Here, we evaluate the outcomes of a non-comparative case series study in which Ringer's solution-preactivated polyacrylate dressings were used to treat acute and hard-to-heal wounds (the presence of Ringer's solution provides a wound dressing that allows, upon application, the immediate hydration of the underlying wound tissue).
