Derma Sciences Announces Clinical Poster on Use of MEDIHONEY(TM) Wound & Burn Dressings Wins First Place Awar...(t we will beable to achieve with MEDIHON...)

Date:3/20/2008

t we will be able to achieve with MEDIHONEY. We have larger cohort studies planned for both diabetic foot ulcers and pressure ulcers, and based on the evidence we have seen thus far to date on these types of ulcers, we are confident that we will see similar movement towards first-line positioning in the management of these wounds."

Speaking of his use of MEDIHONEY, Dr. Matt Regulski said, "Because of its capability as a debrider, anti-inflammatory, free-radical absorber, odor fighter, and properties for fibroblast and macrophage enhancement, this dressing is incredibly versatile and cost-effective. It takes the place of two or three dressings which saves money, and it is very easy to apply. Patients love the idea of a natural dressing instead of applying synthesized chemicals to their wounds. This marks our return to more natural treatments with proven efficacy. Its popularity is only going to grow. We have had great success with it, and it is a part of our everyday treatment regimen for all of our patients."
