Abstract

Wound care is still a problem everywhere, despite the development of several dressing materials for the treatment of both acute and chronic wounds. Nowadays, one of the main causes of mortality globally is injury. The human body's biggest organ, the skin shields the body from the outside world. Serious skin defects need skin replacements to cover them since they do not heal on their own, despite their considerable potential for self-healing. Hydrogels, films, wafers, nanofibers, foams, topical formulations, transdermal patches, sponges, and dressings are among the wound treatments now in use. With their high-water content or ability to create a barrier against bacterial infection, hydrogels have special qualities that make them ideal for use as wound dressings. These attributes include the ability to promote wound healing in wet environments, improve wound management and leakage resistance, and facilitate the development of wound granulation. Products made of hydrogel are three-dimensional networks made up of polymeric material clusters that, because of their hydrophilic nature, can store a lot of water.
