Abstract

A system and method for evaluating wound healing dressings, treatments, and other variables. The present invention includes in vitro systems and methods for testing wound dressing materials for bacterial control, moisture control, and surface contact properties. The present invention further includes in vivo systems and methods for testing wound dressings, treatments, and other variables utilizing arrays of wound wells on an experimental subject animal. Wound arrays allow for different wound healing variables to be tested with numerous experimental trials within the same subject animal, giving reliable results and reducing the number of subject animals required for testing.
