Somali refugees have resettled in the United States in large numbers. The focus of this study was specifically on the Somali Bantu refugees, an ethnic minority group from Somalia. The goal of this study was to understand the following (a) jinn (invisible beings or forces in Islamic theology) and related health problems resulting from jinn possession affecting Somali Bantu refugees, (b) types of traditional healing practices integrated into help-seeking behavior, and (c) pathways of care utilized to address health problems. In total, 20 participant interviews were conducted with Somali Bantu refugees resettled in the United States. Overall, participants described types of jinn and associated health problems. In addition, participants identified different pathways of care, including formal and informal health care. Participants accessed these pathways both concurrently and sequentially. Somali Bantu utilize complex and varied health care services based on their understanding of the causes of health problems and experiences with care providers. Perform a literature review of case studies on pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) associated with burns, and compare the results with a clinical case study on PG in a patient with wounds, published by the authors in this same article. PubMed, ScienceDirect and ClinicalKey were searched for articles between June 2006 and July 2020. Of 831 articles, only 43 met the inclusion criteria. Nine articles, with 17 case studies, were included. The authors' case study was also evaluated (C18). Of the 18 case studies, 50% were female. In 55% cases, the most affected area was the lower limb. The most frequently applied treatment was corticoids (88.9% of cases). PG was present mostly on healthy areas, already healed. PG often develops on the lower limb, but can also be present in any anatomic area. It can emerge at any age, even in underaged patients. PG was present mostly on healthy areas, already healed. PG often develops on the lower limb, but can also be present in any anatomic area. It can emerge at any age, even in underaged patients. Evaluate a number of biomarkers that can objectively measure the wound healing process, and identify the materials that could replicate this in smart wound dressings. A systematic review was conducted to establish the use of materials sensitive to biomarkers. Publications in English were included. Review articles and abstracts presented at conferences were excluded. A total of 296 studies were identified, of which 19 were included. All of these were experimental studies. The articles evaluated pH, temperature, blood pressure, uric acid, and glucose. The materials used were hydrogels, fibres and conductive inks. The most cited biomarker was pH. Materials that evaluate biomarkers via colorimetric methods could be the most suitable to incorporate into smart wound dressings. The most cited biomarker was pH.

Analyse the social and demographic variables that affect healing in patients with hard-to-heal wounds. This retrospective study looked at 349 patient records of people with hard-to-heal wounds at an educational and care centre in San Pablo, Brazil, between 1994 and 2015. Healing was measured using the Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing (PUSH). A total of 128 patient records were included. Most had identified themselves as white (62%), with an incomplete education (31%), household income under three minimum wages (86%), diabetes mellitus (61%), and systemic hypertension (58.4%). The PUSH scale varied between 4-7. The healing rate was 60%. Patients with white/yellow skin had 3.43 more chances to achieve healing (p<0,001). The social determinants observed were similar to Brazil's major inequality indicators. Statistical significance for white/yellow skin colour related to wound healing was observed. Nursing consultations contributed in achieving wound healing. The social determinants observed were similar to Brazil's major inequality indicators.

In this report, Dr Benalcázar summarises the key take-away messages from his talk and encourages health professionals not to focus on surgical site infection (SSI) alone, but also on other five common complications in surgical wounds.Management of diabetic foot ulcers with a TLC-NOSF dressing, based on evidence and clinical practice The incidence of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) has increased in the past decade, both in Chile and worldwide, as a result of the progressive growth in diabetes prevalence. Because DFU are associated with a high risk of infection and amputation, it is crucial to choose effective and evidence-based treatments. A dressing combining technology lipidocolloid with nano-oligo saccharide factor (TLC-NOSF) has demonstrated its effectiveness in managing DFU. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/amg510.html This article reviews the evidence around TLC-NOSF and its implementation in clinical practice. Identify, summarise and present key recommendations published in the literature to prevent skin damage in health professionals as a result of personal protective equipment (PPE) during the covid-19 pandemic. A scoping review, based on the Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines, was carried out between December 2019 and May 2020. The studies included male and female health professionals, who wore PPE during the global pandemic, in any given scenario. Headings and abstracts were analysed. Two independent investigators reviewed the full text. Eight publications were included. All of them focused on preventing pressure ulcers (PU) caused by PPE. Hygiene, hydration and the use of skin barriers were highlighted as preventive measures. There were different views around the type of humectant/skin barrier recommended to avoid skin damage. More studies identifying the most suitable strategies to maintain health professionals' skin integrity during the covid-19 pandemic are needed. More studies identifying the most suitable strategies to maintain health professionals' skin integrity during the covid-19 pandemic are needed.
