Abstract
Wound management is an important and increasing global issue. Infection of a wound can cause a delay in wound healing and pain, but also more serious complications like tissue necrosis or even sepsis, which can lead to loss of tissue, limbs or life. Antibacterial agents have been introduced into wound infection care. In this review, we provide an insight into the current antibacterial strategies of wound dressings, including wound infection process, antibacterial agents, and controlled drug release systems. We also emphasize the development of intelligent wound dressing and introduce a promising research direction.
Keywords: Antibacterial strategies, wound dressing, infection, antibacterial drugs, drug delivery system, intelligent dressing.
