25SW04 - Hydrogels and Botanical Medicine: Considerations for the Treatment of Burn Injury Format:Audio The understanding of tree medicineSpeaker: Kenneth Proefrock, NMD This session will practitioners with a practical understanding of hydrogels and their applications in burn wound management. Hydrogels, complex polymer networks found in various botanicals such as Aloe, Chia seed, Flaxseed, Ulmus, and Astragalus, create a unique moist wound healing environment. This presentation will explore the science behind hydrogels, including their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and ability to
