Leg ulcers, chronic acute wounds, diabetic foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, and other exuding wounds are prone to infection, which can delay healing and result in lengthier and more costly treatment. Clinicians recommend proper wound care with appropriate dressings to speed up healing times and enhance the patients quality of life.UrgoStart Plus padis one of the best dressings for those wounds.
About UrgoStart Plus
The dressing is a polyabsorbent fibre pad with a Protease inhibitor or TLC-NOSF Healing Matrix. The fibres trap, bind and retain exudate. The TLC-NOSF Healing Matrix prevents excess metalloproteinases, promoting the formation of new blood vessels.
Treating wounds with TLC-NOSF Healing Matrix addresses two local factors to decrease healing time: promote angiogenesis and prevent excess MMPs. At the same time, the poly-absorbent fibres of theUrgostart Plus Padcontinuously clean the wound during treatment.
NICE recommends the pads for treating venous leg ulcers and diabetic foot ulcers. These conditions may be hard to heal, but UrgoStart Plus offers effective local treatment that may minimise healing time by an average of 100 days.
When to use UrgoStart Plus Pads
UrgoStart Plus Paddressings are effective at all wound healing stages. You can apply them from day one all the way to complete healing. These dressings continuously clean the wound as the polyabsorbent fibres deslough and absorb exudate. This way, patients can recover sooner.
TLC-NOSF is proven effective at reducing healing time through double-blind and randomised controlled clinical studies. The earlier you start with TLC-NOSF treatment, the more effective it should be. So, consider usingUrgoStart Plus Paddressings as soon as possible to promote timely healing.
How to use UrgoStart Plus Pads
Use UrgoStart Plus pads as part of a holistic treatment approach with a suitable standard of care, such as pressure relief, offloading, or compression. The pads are highly conformable, and you may cut them to suit the size and shape of the wound. They are suitable for damaged surrounding skin or juxtaposed or used under compression.
