RESUMEN
Patients with open abdominal (OA) wounds have a mortality risk of up to 30%, and the resulting disabilities would have profound effects on patients. Here, we present a novel double-sided adhesive tape developed for the management of OA wounds. The tape features an asymmetrical structure and employs an acellular dermal matrix (ADM) with asymmetric wettability as a scaffold. It is constructed by integrating a tissue-adhesive hydrogel composed of polydopamine (pDA), quaternary ammonium chitosan (QCS), and acrylic acid cross-linking onto the bottom side of the ADM. Following surface modification with pDA, the ADM would exhibit characteristics resistant to bacterial adhesion. Furthermore, the presence of a developed hydrogel ensures that the tape not only possesses tissue adhesiveness and noninvasive peelability but also effectively mitigates damage caused by oxidative stress. Besides, the ADM inherits the strength of the skin, imparting high burst pressure tolerance to the tape. Based on these remarkable attributes, we demonstrate that this double-sided (D-S) tape facilitates the repair of OA wounds, mitigates damage to exposed intestinal tubes, and reduces the risk of intestinal fistulae and complications. Additionally, the D-S tape is equally applicable to treating other abdominal injuries, such as gastric perforations. It effectively seals the perforation, promotes injury repair, and prevents the formation of postoperative adhesions. These notable features indicate that the presented double-sided tape holds significant potential value in the biomedical field.

The novel multifunctional electrospun textiles were fabricated by incorporating sheet-like kaolinite and silver nanoparticles (AgNps) into a polyurethane (PU) textile by using electrostatic spinning to promote wound-healing process. Threedimensional network of PU electrospun textiles offered an appropriate framework for loading kaolinite nanosheets and AgNps. Moreover, the kaolinite nanosheets healed bleeding wounds by accelerating plasma absorption, increasing blood cell concentrations, and stimulating coagulation factors. Furthermore, the AgNps killed microbes by destroying the cell membrane, while the deleterious effects were controlled by incorporation into the electrospun textile. The therapeutic effects of multifunctional electrospun textile in treating full-thickness abdominal wall defect were explored. The wound healing process could be accelerated via the textile by restoring the abdominal physiological environment, reducing the inflammatory response, and promoting collagen deposition, angiogenesis, and epithelization.

Hemostasis, wound closure and prevention of infection are critical to wound healing after an injury. Skin adhesives have been used to seal incisions, thus aiding primary wound healing, as well as creating a barrier to microbes. We constructed a skin adhesive with antibacterial and hemostatic activities (AHAs) for wound management. The adhesive was made by using methacrylated hyaluronan-polyacrylamide (MHA-PAAm) hydrogels, integrated with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and bonded to gelatin. Because of the three-dimensional network structure of the hydrogels, nanoscale particles can be encapsulated into their voids; the AgNPs, through sustained delivery of silver ions, endow the adhesives with sustained broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. Furthermore, due to the introduction of MHA which can be crosslinked by visible light, the polyacrylamide hydrogel matrix can be formed through photo crosslinking. In addition, gelatin can be bonded to both the hydrogel matrix and host tissues because of the interaction between carboxyl and amino-moieties. Our animal studies demonstrated that the AHAs which possess tissue adhesive and antibacterial properties were easy to stretch, and were able to stop bleeding in rat tail amputation and liver injury models. AHAs enhance wound granulation tissue formation, vascular tissue formation, and collagen formation, as well as alleviate inflammation. These properties promoted wound closure in rat wound infection models, promising great potential for applying AHAs in clinical uses.
