Abstract
Various types of skin wounds pose challenges in terms of healing and susceptibility to infection, which can have a significant impact on physical and mental well-being, and in severe cases, may result in amputation. Conventional wound dressings often fail to provide optimal support for these wounds, thereby impeding the healing process. As a result, there has been considerable interest in the development of multifunctional polymer matrix hydrogel scaffolds for wound healing. This review offers a comprehensive review of the characteristics of polysaccharide-based hydrogel scaffolds, as well as their applications in different types of wounds. Additionally, it evaluates the advantages and disadvantages associated with various types of multifunctional polymer and polysaccharide-based hydrogel scaffolds. The objective is to provide a theoretical foundation for the utilization of multifunctional hydrogel scaffolds in promoting wound healing.
