Microbiology of Wounds

It is not the presence of bacterial organisms but their interaction with patients that determine their influence on wound healing. Documenting this critical but often ignored aspect of wound healing, this volume discusses the microbiology and biology of human wounds in relation to infection and the biology of the non-healing wound. It presents scientific and clinical information regarding chronic and acute wounds, and discusses inflammation, epithelialization, granulation tissue, and tissue remodeling. It also details techniques for managing chronic and acute wound bioburden and covers the mode of action and efficacy of anti-infectives used in treating wounds.
