Abstract
Non-healing wounds pose an obstacle to patient care, leading to increased morbidity and placing time and financial strain on patient and caregiver. Newer modalities in treatment are being actively researched to further facilitate tissue growth and healing. One such modality is the use of collagen granules in non-healing wound management. There are relatively few studies in India and internationally showing its effect on healing. Here we discuss our experience with the use, effects demonstrated using collagen granules on non-healing wounds.
