Abstract
Chronic wounds have a long period of healing, being impeded by numerous factors, as infections. Polyhexanidine is a new broad spectrum antiseptic with non-toxic action which is used lately in wound cleaning solutions.

Besides the bactericide action, polyhexanidine has also no cytotoxicity, good tolerability and anti-inflammatory proprieties.
