Abstract
Proper nutrition in presurgical patients can enhance wound healing and potentially decrease the cost of postsurgical medical care. Therefore, to combat increasing health care costs, it is important that the health care professional have a solid understanding of the role of essential nutrients in the healing process. The author reviews the role of the following in wound healing: protein, vitamin A, zinc, vitamin C, vitamin E, and iron.Entities:
