Summary: In recent years, the healing of chronic wounds has become a challenging problem in clinical practice. This study aimed to address the challenges in wound care by designing a dual-network hydrogel composed of sodium alginate and platelet-rich plasma. The hydrogel showed a three-dimensional network structure and exhibited the potential for cell proliferation and vascular regeneration. When applied to wound skin in rats, the hydrogel effectively promoted wound closure. Overall, this strategy offers a simple and feasible approach for overcoming the shortcomings of conventional wound dressings.
