Wound treatment represents a significant clinical challenge, requiring strategies that combine traditional approaches and technological innovations. The article analyzes advances in vacuum dressings, biopolymers and nanotechnology-based materials, promoting faster and more effective healing. The research used an integrative literature review with databases such as PubMed, Scopus and ScienceDirect, covering publications between 2019 and 2024. The results highlight significant advances in the use of vacuum dressings, biopolymers and nanotechnology-based materials, promoting faster and more effective healing. Despite this, challenges remain, such as personalizing treatments and adapting biopolymers to different needs. The combination of traditional methods and emerging technologies has the potential to optimize care, accelerate tissue regeneration and improve patients' quality of life. The study concludes that integrated and multidisciplinary approaches, combined with new technological developments, are essential to overcome the barriers in the treatment of complex wounds.
