Wound healing, the world-concerned challenge consumes countless medical resource and money every year. In the healing process, the excessive exudates around wounds often cause infection and hinder wound healing. However, the conventional hydrophilic dressing cannot effectively remove the excessive exudates retained at the interface between the dressing and the wound. Herein, we design a self-pumping dressing, composed of a hydrophobic layer onto a hydrophilic one, which can unidirectionally drain the excessive exudates away from the wounds. This report summarizes the recent progress of fabricating the self-pumping dressings and their applications for accelerated wound healing.:1) Physical model of the self-pumping dressings with unidirectional draining performance; 2) The application of the self-pumping dressings in the dorsum wounds of murine.
