ANALYSIS OF CLINICAL PARAMETERS OF SCAR TISSUE OF THE SCALP AND NECK DEPENDING ON THE CIRCADIAN RHYTHM OF THE PATIENT

Wound healing is a complex and dynamic process. It consists of phases that are closely related. The formation of the postoperative scar is influenced by: the topography of the surgical field, the duration of the inflammatory process, the method of surgical intervention, the time of surgical intervention and the patient's chronotype. In 1970, the Swedish psychologist Oscar Okvist began the scientific study of chronotypes. According to him, the term "chronotype" is used to define the individual characteristics of the circadian rhythm of man.Biological rhythms play an important role in adaptation and survival in the environment. According to previous research, biological rhythm affects not only the mental state, but also reparative functions during wound healing and rehabilitation in the postoperative period.
