NANO-ENHANCED WOUND DRESSING

摘要

The present disclosure relates to a dermal drug delivery platform comprising: a primary wound dressing comprising three-dimensional polymer protuberances that extend upward from the dressing surface to engage the wound. The protuberances comprise at least one biocompatible and/or biodegradable polymer and medicinal nanoparticles. In one embodiment, the medicinal nanoparticles may be metallic and provide surface-area-enhanced galvanic action to drive medicinal ions into the wound bed. Various methods of making the disclosed dermal drug delivery platform, as well as three-dimensional methods of treating a wound using the platform are also disclosed.
