| Summary: | Wound healing is a process of the body replacing devitalized and/or missing tissue in order to fill a cavity
and repair damaged skin. The process typically occurs in a coordinated manner taking up time depending
upon the nature of the wound. During this time wounds are vulnerable to repeated trauma and breakdown
and should be protected where possible. Generally, wounds are healed by four phasestermed as vascularization,
inflammation, proliferation, and maturation. A number of factors such as age, weight, nutritional status,
immune response, dehydration, inadequate blood supply to the wound, chronic disease, radiations, surgery
etc. greatly influence the process of wound healing
