Hydrogels comprise crosslinked polymeric matrices of renowned applications in distinct biotechnological areas, which may be synthesized by several techniques. In general and although very effective, many techniques required the need of monomers or solvents which require careful washing processes in order to be removed from the systems. On this aspect the synthesis of hydrogels developed by exposition to ionizing radiation offers advantages over the conventional methods, such as no need of monomers or toxic solvents, being also capable of sterilizing the product inside final packaging. In this work we report the loading and release of silver nanoparticles into radiation synthesized hydrogels to be applied as dressing for wound healing, from development stages to initial clinical evaluation in (Ethics Committee Reg TO 161/2013) patients with venous ulcers.

ConclusionsThe membrane produced presented suitable mechanical
properties to be applied as wound dressings. The Patient ulcer treated with the dressings presented increased healing process and better aspects which were identified on the 5th day. On the 10th day, the lesions were significantly smaller, with reduced odor and no report of pain. Thus the initial trials indicated that such dressing may be effectively applied for the treatment of venous ulcers, being capable of significantly reducing pain, odor and exudate formation.
