Wound healing is a complex physiological process involving coordinated cellular and molecular events aimed at restoring tissue integrity. Acute wounds typically progress through the sequential phases of hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling, while chronic wounds, such as venous leg ulcers and diabetic foot ulcers, often exhibit prolonged inflammation and impaired healing. Traditional wound dressings, while widely used, have limitations such poor moisture retention and biocompatibility. To address these challenges and improve patient outcomes, scaffold-mediated delivery systems have emerged as innovative approaches. They offer advantages in creating a conducive environment for wound healing by facilitating controlled and localized drug delivery. The manuscript explores scaffold-mediated delivery systems for wound healing applications, detailing the use of natural and synthetic polymers in scaffold fabrication. Additionally, various fabrication techniques are discussed for their potential in creating scaffolds with controlled drug release kinetics. Through a synthesis of experimental findings and current literature, this manuscript elucidates the promising potential of scaffold-mediated drug delivery in improving therapeutic outcomes and advancing wound care practices.
