Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: Negative-pressure dressings (NPDs) have been reported to improve split-thickness skin graft survival in some settings; we assessed whether NPDs could improve skin graft results in radial forearm donor sites. METHODS: Between October 2003 and November 2004, 45 radial forearm donor sites underwent split-thickness skin graft immobilization either with conventional bolster dressing and splint or with an NPD. Split-thickness skin graft take was recorded at 1 and 4 weeks postoperatively. RESULTS: Overall split-thickness skin graft healing was improved in the NPD group (92%) compared with the case of conventional splinting (81%) at 4 weeks ( P =. 10). The rate of major graft loss was less in NPDs (10%) compared with the case of conventional management (28%) after 4 weeks ( P =. 06). CONCLUSIONS: Split-thickness skin graft survival was significantly improved by the use of NPDs. Because the use of NPDs is expensive, we consider their use only in patients with potential wound-healing problems, when there is a need to monitor the hand, or when immediate postoperative hand immobilization might impede the patient's recovery.

Abstract:
Background Surgical excision remains the cornerstone of simultaneous diagnosis and treatment of suspicious skin lesions, and the scalp is a high-risk area for skin cancers due to increased cumulative lifetime ultraviolet (UV) exposure. Due to the inelasticity of scalp skin, most excisions with predetermined margins require reconstruction with skin grafting. Methods A retrospective single-centre cohort study was performed of all patients undergoing outpatient local anaesthetic scalp skin excision and skin graft reconstruction in the Plastic Surgery Department at Addenbrookes Hospital over a 20-month period between 1 April 2017 and 1 January 2019. In total, 204 graft cases were collected. Graft reconstruction techniques included both full-thickness and split-thickness skin grafts. Statistical analysis using Z tests were used to determine which skin grafting technique achieved better graft take. Results Split-thickness skin grafts had a statistically significant ( P = 0.01) increased average take (90%) compared to full-thickness skin grafts (72%). Using a foam tie-over dressing on the scalp led to a statistically significant ( P = 0.000036) increase in skin graft take, from 38% to 79%. Conclusion In skin graft reconstruction of scalp defects after skin cancer excision surgery, split skin grafts secured with foam tie-over dressings are associated with superior outcomes compared to full-thickness skin grafts or grafts secured with sutures only.

Abstract:
Background: Split-thickness skin graft failures can be attributed to flaws in the recipient bed which has to be well prepared. Tissues with limited blood supply such as bone, tendons, cartilage or sites with necrotic tissue or infection do not accept skin grafts. Adrenaline is used to harvest skin grafts due to its vasoconstriction effect which limits blood loss. The aim of our study was to determine skin graft take after tumescent technique compared to a non-tumescent technique for harvesting.Methods: Two treatment groups of patients who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned. Forty patients underwent split-thickness skin graft harvesting with tumescent technique and forty patients underwent non-tumescent split-thickness skin graft harvesting. The recipient site was opened in both groups on the fifth day after surgery and take rate assessed. The donor site was assessed on day ten and if not healed, followed up for three weeks.Results: There was a statistically significant association between skin graft take rate and skin grafting technique (p=0.011). The mean graft take rate was 2.5% higher in the tumescent group compared to the non-tumescent group (96.3% compared to 94%). On day 10, there was no difference in percentage healing of donor sites between the tumescent and non-tumescent groups, p=0.562.Conclusions: Tumescent technique significantly reduced intraoperative blood loss. It is safe, inexpensive and easy to use. The subdermal adrenaline/saline injection creates a smooth, dense surface which assists debridement and donor harvesting.

Abstract:
A skin autograft is described as the transfer of skin without the aid of a blood supply from the donor location to the recipient site. The epidermis and portions of the underlying dermis from the donor location are transferred using split-thickness skin grafts (STSGs). The whole layer of skin is harvested for full-thickness skin grafts (FTSGs) and used as the transplant. The installation methods and usage of STSGs are discussed above. Graft movement, which impedes neovascularization and promotes fluid accumulation under the transplant, which can result in infection and inadequate revascularization, is the key factor in skin graft failure.

Abstract:
Background: There is an increased prevalence of foot ulceration in patients with diabetes, leading to hospitalization. Early wound closure is necessary to prevent further infections and, ultimately, lower-limb amputations. There is no current evidence stating that an elevated preoperative hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level is a contraindication to skin grafting. The purpose of this review was to determine whether elevated HbA1c levels are a contraindication to the application of skin grafts in diabetic patients. Methods: A retrospective review was performed of 53 consecutive patients who underwent split-thickness skin graft application to the lower extremity between January 1, 2012, and December 31, 2015. A uniform surgical technique was used across all of the patients. A comparison of HbA1c levels between failed and healed skin grafts was reviewed. Results: Of 43 surgical sites (41 patients) that met the inclusion criteria, 27 healed with greater than 90% graft take and 16 had a skin graft that failed. There was no statistically significant difference in HbA1c levels in the group that healed a skin graft compared with the group in which skin graft failed to adhere. Conclusions: Preliminary data suggest that an elevated HbA1c level is not a contraindication to application of a skin graft. The benefits of early wound closure outweigh the risks of skin graft application in patients with diabetes.

Abstract:
In order to compare the long-term results of full-thickness and split-thickness skin grafts after the correction of congenital syndactyly, 27 patients have been investigated after an average follow-up of 21 years. Post-operative functional and cosmetic results have been assessed by patient records, questionnaires and physical examination. The webs that had received split-thickness grafts showed more flexion and extension lags and the overall spreading of the operated fingers was significantly decreased compared to the control fingers. On the other hand, more re-operations because of web creep had to be performed after full-thickness grafts. Hyperpigmentation and hair growth in the grafts was found in most of the full-thickness grafts, while breakdown of the graft was found in some of the split-thickness grafts. Therefore, based on the results of this study, either full- or split-thickness skin grafts can be used when treating of congenital syndactyly.

Background: Split-thickness skin grafts (STSG) have been widely used in wound reconstruction, because it could decrease the duration of wound healing and minimize scar contracture. Skin grafting, however, can result in extra wounds, i.e., donor sites. Because standard care guideline for donor site is inconclusive, poor implications, such as increased wound pain, delay of wound healing, hypertrophic scar, and even infection may occur. Purpose: This study is aimed to analyze efficacy of dressing types for skin grafting donor site care, using a literature review and meta-analysis design. Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted to identify research publications between Jan 2009 and June 2016 that were addressed on outcomes of dressing types for split-thickness skin graft donor sites in the PubMED, MEDLINE, CINAHL, and Chinese databases (including CEPS). Research inclusion criteria were: 1) a clinical trial design; 2) adults receiving STSG; 3) study outcomes on pain, healing time, or complication. Comprehensive Meta-Analysis 3.0 software was applied to examine the effect size of the three outcome variables. Results: A rough search was resulted in 454 relevant studies; of them, five publications were met the study inclusion and exclusion criteria. For the purpose of the study, types of dressing were divided into two categories: absorb vs. non-absorb. As if there are more than two types of wound care dressing used in the publication study, multiple data entries would be occurred. A significant level 0.05 is applied in the current study. There are five publications and 8 data entries included in pain outcome analysis. The overall effect of pain between absorb and non-absorb groups is -0.002 (95% confidence interval (CI), -0.348, 0.344), which is insignificant. There are five publications and 7 data entries included in healing time outcome analysis. The overall effect of healing time between absorb and non-absorb groups is -0.408 (95% CI, -0.816, 0.000), which is insignificant. There are five publications and 6 data entries included in complication outcome analysis. The overall effect of complication between absorb and non-absorb groups is 0.610 (95% CI, 0.139, 2.672), which is insignificant. Conclusion: The study result supports absorb wound care dressing is benefit for wound healing. It is important to implement such dressing type as standard wound care.

A research report submitted to the Faculty of Health Sciences, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Medicine Johannesburg February 2018.
Background Dressing of donor sites in split-thickness skin grafts can be traumatic for the patient. The associated pain and discomfort has impelled a myriad of publications in the quest for the ultimate dressing. The most advanced and expensive dressings have been studied and compared to the most basic of dressings, with little or no consensus and an unpersuasive level of evidence. Objectives We aimed to determine the efficacy of the locally manufactured non-adherent, hydroconductive Drawtex® dressing and compare it to the standard-of-care dressing in our setting, Opsite®, in the healing of split-thickness donor sites. Methods In this prospective, within-patient controlled and multi-center study, we included 27 adult participants, each with two split-thickness skin graft donor sites: one donor site wound was dressed with Drawtex® and the other one with Opsite®. The 54 donor site wounds were compared with regard to time to re-epithelialisation, perceived pain of the patient and quality of the healed wound. Results Comparing Drawtex®- and Opsite® dressings in the healing (defined as >90% of epithelialised surface) of donor site wounds, 22.2% of Drawtex® and 3.7% of Opsite® wounds were healed by day 5 (p=0.00002). On day ten and fifteen; 88.9% vs 85.2% and 100% vs 96.2%, of donor site wounds were healed for Drawtex® and Opsite® respectively. The hydroconductive dressing treated donor site wounds were significantly less painful than the Opsite®-treated donor sites wounds at 24-hours, 48-hours and 7-days post-operatively. Overall, there were less complications in the hydroconductive dressing group and the wound healing quality was superior to that of the Opsite®-treated group. Conclusion Drawtex® is a relatively cheap and readily available dressing made locally in South Africa. In this study we have demonstrated Drawtex® to be at least as safe, and potentially superior in wound healing, when compared to our current standard-of-care dressing, Opsite®.

Abstract:
Objectives: To systematically review the effectiveness of different treatment options for managing a fasciotomy wound on outcomes, including time to primary wound healing, percentage of patients who need skin grafts to effect closure of the wound and length of stay in hospital following the fasciotomies, in patients with acute compartment syndrome of the limb(s). Methods: Published and unpublished English language papers about human subjects from January 1960 to June 2012 were identified using electronic searches of medical and nursing databases. Reference lists of relevant articles were also searched. A systematic review of the papers found was conducted. Results: Thirty-two papers met the inclusion criteria and passed critical appraisal. One randomised controlled trial (RCT) was analysed separately and four cohort studies were meta-analysed. The RCT favoured the use of shoelace technique over negative pressure wound therapy based on a range of indicators. The cohort studies favoured the use of negative pressure wound therapy over saline soaked gauze on a range of indicators. Conclusion: The systematic review found limited evidence on which to base practice decisions. The single RCT needs to be replicated to confirm findings before practice change can be confidently recommended. The evidence provided some support for the use of vessel loop shoelace technique to improve the chances of achieving a primary wound closure without the need for a split thickness skin graft and to reduce length of stay when compared with negative pressure wound management. The use of negative pressure wound management appears to be associated with a higher rate of split thickness skin graft than vessel loop shoelace. Saline soaked gauze is not recommended for use with these wounds.

Abstract:
This chapter provides an overview of skin conditions affecting the hand, including nail pathology, benign and malignant skin tumours, and Dupuytren’s disease (DD). Although distortion of the nail occurs most commonly after trauma, nail changes may indicate other systemic causes (e.g. psoriasis), and may occasionally be due to underlying malignancy. Hands are exposed to sunlight and other occupational hazards (chemicals, radiation), and are vulnerable to skin cancer, most commonly squamous cell carcinoma. DD is often familial, commoner in men, and can affect the feet (plantar fibromatosis) and penis (Peyronie’s disease). Discreet areas of DD are now treatable by collagenase injection. Surgery is still indicated to restore function, either by fasciectomy (excision of DD) or dermofasciectomy (fasciectomy plus full thickness skin graft) where skin is involved or there is a secondary skin defect following fasciectomy. Patients should be counselled realistically about the post-operative recovery to full function, and that DD is not curable by surgery.

Abstract:
AbstractBesides operative procedures (e.g., necrosectomies, skin grafting), conservative treatments of thermal injuries are increasingly important. wIRA as an additional therapy for burns, scalds, and chemically induced injuries and for treating severe skin reactions (e.g., toxic epidermal necrolysis) is used in our clinic on a daily basis. The most successful therapy involves 3–4 irradiations/30 min/day. Therefore, patients with superficial partial-thickness burns are treated with topical polyhexanide ointment and wIRA 2–4 days after the accident. In these cases, we see a quick wound-drying and a rapid re-epithelialization of the skin. The approach in deep partial-thickness burns depends on whether surgical procedures must be postponed due to poor general conditions. In these patients, preservation of the wound perfusion in regions that are not fully damaged is intended, avoiding extensive necrosectomies.Although third-degree burns are dry and do not require wIRA irradiation, it can be used for adjacent regions with minor degree burns. Preliminary in vitro data suggest a wIRA-induced migration of adipose-derived stem cells.Postoperatively, wIRA is used on areas transplanted with split-thickness skin grafts. After removal of the tie-over bolsters, wIRA is applied 3–4 times/20–30 min/day. The grafts exhibit a faster epithelialization of the fenestrated spots, and postoperative infections seem to be less frequent.

Abstract:
Abstract In this paper we investigate the possibility of creating an animal model for hypertrophic scar formation by grafting healthy split thickness human skin onto the backs of athymic nude mice and then burning the grafts. We were able to show that the human tissue grafts do remain stable over extended periods and prove that the human dermis does not get infiltrated by mouse tissue. By burning the grafts for ten seconds at 70°C we found that we could not reproduce results previously reported; but by changing the burn parameters we were able to produce regions of dermal disorder that may indicate the formation of hypertrophic scar. These results represent the first replication of positive results using this animal model since it was first proposed 10 years ago.

Abstract:
Abstract Artificial skin is a bilayer skin replacement system designed to regenerate dermal tissue. Prior to the commercial availability of artificial skin, surgically created wounds that cannot be closed by primary means (such as excising deep partial or full-thickness burns), had to be treated with autograft; a graft of the patient’s own skin harvested from a healthy donor site. This is because the dermal layer of skin cannot regenerate functional tissue spontaneously; instead, scar tissue forms. When applied surgically to a clean, excised wound bed, autograft becomes permanently engrafted, that is, it becomes permanently affixed to the underlying tissue and vascularized. However, autograft has serious drawbacks, including the creation of a donor wound, which has its own significant morbidity, and its unavailability in sufficient quantity in patients with large wounds.

Abstract:
Introduction: Postablative reconstruction of vulvar defects is a difficult challenge. Local flaps carry a high incidence of delayed wound healing as local flaps may redistribute but not eliminate local wound tension. Repair of defect with distant pedicled flaps may avert local complications by minimising tension to the skin and increasing the initial biomechanical strength of wound. The aim of this study was to determine the clinical outcome of distant musculocutaneous & fasciocutaneous flaps used for postablative reconstruction of large vulvar defects. Methods: Between January 2015 to December 2015 total three patients underwent vulvectomy and immediate reconstruction with distant pedicled flaps for vulvar carcinoma. Postoperative complications were recorded and clinical outcomes were evaluated. Results: Two of the three flaps healed primarily. One flap was complicated by minor wound dehiscence, which healed with conservative treatment. Hospital stay and clinical course was shorter in comparison to local flaps and split skin graft. Conclusions: Distant musculocutaneous and fasciocutaneous flaps provide excellent design flexibility and can be tailored to reconstruct postablative vulvar defects with good outcomes and minimal morbidity.

Abstract:
The Split Ring Resonator (SRR) has been developed and explored for a number of sensing technologies and devices. A SRR can be equivalently regarded as an LC circuit; changes in the dielectric environment will change the equivalent capacitance of the resonator, resulting in a shift of the resonant frequency as well as the quality factor (Q-factor).This makes the device a promising application for continuous personal health monitoring throughout the day. In this work, we are developing a passive radio frequency sensor based on ring resonator designs. The targeted frequency band is within 2.4–2.5GHz ISM (Industrial-Scientific-Medical radio band) and is available for medical devices. The resonator structure is first simulated using Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method by CST Microwave Studio to determine the resonant frequency. Then for the experimental study, a microstrip transmission line with a double split ring resonator (DSRR) was fabricated on a printed circuit board (PCB) with biocompatible PVC coating on top. Tuning the thickness and material of the biocompatible coating can further improve the biocompatibility, Q-factor, and resulting sensitivity (mS) of the device. Reflection spectrum (S11) is measured using a network analyzer at 100 mW. The current design senses changes in conductivity down to 0.5 mS. By reducing coating thickness, reducing the spacing between resonators, and with more efficient resonator designs we expect to further improve this sensitivity. This sensor could be utilized by either implanted into the interstitial layer beneath the skin or embedded into a contact lens to sense tear salinity levels.

Abstract:
In order to overcome the limits due to the fact that homogeneous layers of soft material placed over robotic limbs behave differently with respect to biological models, this paper suggests the adoption of soft covers (pads) with differentiated structure. In particular, it is proposed to divide the allowable pad thickness into two layers: a continuous external layer (skin) and a discontinuous internal layer, so that the overall stiffness can be adjusted by properly shaping the discontinuous layer. The methodology adopted for designing the internal layer is composed of two steps. Firstly, the cover surface is conceptually split into finite elementary triangular sub-regions. Secondly, the internal layer of each triangular element is designed in order to replicate the shape of the non-linear compression law which is typical of endoskeletal structures covered by pulpy tissues. A series of symmetrically-disposed inclined micro-beams is used for the purpose. Once the compression law of each triangular element is known, the overall pad compliance can be modulated by correctly choosing the number and size of the elements composing the pad. Equipment and results of a combined experimental and numerical analysis (FEM) are presented. The results confirm that the proposed concept can be an effective solution when designing soft covers whose behavior need to match the compliance of the biological counterpart. As an example, artificial pads which mimic the human finger behavior are presented.
