Abstract

Objective: To analyze the effects of plant extracts on wound healing materials, focusing on their physicochemical properties and effectiveness in healing. Methods: This integrative review was conducted in PubMed and Lilacs databases using the descriptors “plant medicine” and “wounds” combined with the Boolean operator AND; the publication date encompassed studies from 2018 to 2023. Twelve studies were analyzed. Results: Selected studies were characterized by the following information: author, year of publication, population and intervention, objectives, and conclusion. Plant extracts were widely used alone or combined with other healing materials; most studies presented promising results. Conclusion: The analyzed studies corroborate the importance of using plant extracts in wound healing associated (or not) with other existing measures, demonstrating their effective therapeutic potential. Despite the progress made, the healing potential of plant extracts still needs further research.
