Abstract:
The authors studied the effect of papain and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) phonophoresis on the course of purulent wounds and inflammatory processes in patients. It is shown that the use of 1% papain solution together with DMSO by means of phonophoresis is a very effective and promising method for the treatment of purulent wounds and inflammatory infiltrates. The terms of restoration of the structure of the injured tissues are reduced by 1.8 times on the average.

Phases of Wound Repair
Following injury, the integrity of the injured tissues must be reestablished. For example, in skin tissue, wound repair involves coordination among resident skin cells, blood mononuclear cells, extracellular matrix, growth factors, and cytokines to complete the healing cascade.
Formation of Blood Clot
In case of deep injuries, trauma to blood vessels results in blood loss. In the meantime, phospholipids released from the ruptured endothelial cellular membrane are converted into arachidonic...

Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is characterized by narrowed arteries that diminish blood flow to the extremities. Effective management of PAD requires an interprofessional approach involving various healthcare professionals. The critical aspects of interprofessional care for PAD patients focus on risk factor modification, drug therapy, exercise therapy, nutrition therapy, critical limb ischemia care, and interventional radiology and surgical procedures.The primary treatment goal for PAD...
