On the possibility of creating a universal scale for assessing wound healing

Wound healing is a process that is crucial in maintaining the barrier function of the skin and preserving its other functions. Healing occurs by regeneration or reconstruction of damaged tissue. Reparation of the skin is a difficult multifactorial biological process, covering both the regeneration of structural components and the restoration of the functional characteristics of the skin. There are scales that allow you to evaluate the progress of the restoration of the skin barrier. However, during their clinical test and further use, certain shortcomings were identified. Thus, there is a tendency to create a universal scale of wound healing, which will have diagnostic and prognostic value.
