This book provides a comprehensive overview of the role of nanomaterials in wound regeneration and the development of advanced wound dressings. It presents their recent advances; explains their materials, properties, and manufacture; and describes promising solutions for improving patient outcomes.The book is divided into two parts, focusing respectively on wound regeneration and wound dressings. The book first discusses nanomaterials, the wound healing process, and the limitations of traditional wound care methods. Following this, it addresses the use of nanomaterials in wound regeneration and the selection and manufacture of nanomaterial-based wound dressings. Part 1 lastly discusses biocompatibility and toxicity issues, regulatory and ethical considerations, and manufacturing and scalability challenges. The second part explains the technologies and applications of advanced wound dressings incorporating nanomaterials and their benefits for wound care. Here, the book addresses advanced wound dressings for both chronic and acute wounds to ensure a comprehensive understanding. The book concludes with a discussion of current challenges in the field, particularly the rise of AI, and outlines future research directions and potential innovations to improve patient outcomes by shortening healing times and reducing the risk of infection. Throughout the book, contributors provide case studies and clinical trial results that demonstrate the efficacy of these dressings. This book gives readers a comprehensive understanding of the materials, mechanisms, and appropriate applications of different nanomaterials that they will be able to apply experimentally and practically in both laboratory and clinical settings.This book provides vital knowledge to upper undergraduate and postgraduate students in fields such as biomaterials science and engineering, medicine, textile engineering, nursing, and biochemistry as well as research scientists and industry experts working in the fields of life sciences and nanomaterials.
