4 Welcome to 21st century wound care The development of specific diagnostic tests for use in wounds has the potential to revolutionise their treatment, and help improve standards of wound care (while) aiding in the cost effective use of limited resources. World Union of Wound Healing Societies. Principles of best practice: A consensus document: MEP Ltd. London, IMAGINE A WORLD WITHOUT WHEELS Research suggests that wounds that heal well have a lower overall Protease activity than those that heal poorly. As a result, a test that readily provides this information might be clinically useful in understanding how well a wound is healing, and whether an intervention that modulates Protease activity may be needed.

9 PROMOGRAN PROMOGRAN Protease Modulating Matrix PROMOGRAN matrix is sterile, freeze-dried composite of 55% collagen and 45% oxidised regenerated cellulose (ORC). PROMOGRAN matrix is designed to promote an optimal healing environment. 1 With PROMOGRAN matrix stalled wounds close: 1,2 Faster 1,3,4 Cost Effectively In the presence of exudate the PROMOGRAN matrix transforms into a soft and conformable, biodegradable gel: this allows contact with all areas of the wound. PROMOGRAN matrix has been proven to reduce levels of Proteases such as MMPs and Elastase. This may restore the balance of the wound microenvironment, promoting granulation tissue and helping the wound close. 5 By reducing both MMP and Elastase activity the wound surface area has been shown to reduce. Collagen alone has been shown to be less effective at reducing protease activity than collagen/orc. PROMOGRAN matrix is indicated for the management of all wounds healing by secondary intent which are clear of necrotic tissue, including: Diabetic ulcers Venous ulcers Pressure ulcers Ulcers caused by mixed vascular aetiologies Traumatic and surgical wounds PROMOGRAN matrix has demonstrated haemostatic properties. PROMOGRAN matrix can be used under compression therapy.

The Border product is conformable, has a top layer of low-friction film, and has bevelled edges all around the product - the border itself is a continuation of the skin-friendly hydrocolloid adhesive material The Standard product has a top layer of foam, rounded corners, and is uniform in thickness The semi-transparent Thin product, which is conformable and has a top layer of low-friction film, allows close and easy monitoring of the wound bed without dressing removal helps maintain a moist wound healing environment and encouraging autolytic debridement, thus enabling granulation to proceed under optimum conditions Designed to protect low risk wounds against bacterial contamination* The dressing material interacts with wound exudate to form a soft gel - due to the matrix formulation of the hydrocolloid material, most of the gel is removed together with the dressing, resulting in little or no damage to the newly formed tissue The dressings are waterproof and remain in place during showering NU-DERM Border and NU-DERM Standard are primarily indicated for the management of lightly to moderately exuding pressure sores and leg ulcers NU-DERM Thin is primarily indicated for the management of superficial dry/lightly exuding wounds, post-operative wounds, and superficial wounds and abrasions; however it is also useful on small wounds towards the end of the healing phase 36 Section Product Information NU-DERM Hydrocolloid Border Thin Per CASE HCT1 cm x cm 4 x 4 (0 eaches) NU-DERM Hydrocolloid Standard HCF204 cm x cm 4 x 4 5 (50 eaches) HCF208 20cm x 20cm 8 x (20 eaches) NU-DERM Hydrocolloid Border HCB2 5cm x 5cm 20 5 (0 eaches) HCB204 cm x cm 4 x 4 16 (160 eaches) HCB6 15cm x 15cm 6 x (20 eaches) HCB8 20cm x 20cm 8 x (20 eaches) NU-DERM Hydrocolloid Border Elbow and Heel HCH207 8cm x 12cm 6 (60 eaches) NU-DERM Hydrocolloid Border Sacrum HCS0 15cm x 18cm 6 x (20 eaches) * Consult a physician prior to using NU-DERM Hydrocolloid Dressings on lesions caused by tuberculosis, syphilis or deep fungal infections, cancer and wounds at high risk of infection Section 37

20 NU-GEL HYDROGEL WITH ALGINATE NU-GEL Hydrogel with Alginate NU-GEL Hydrogel is a transparent hydro-active amorphous gel containing sodium alginate that gently and effectively rehydrates necrotic tissue and fibrinous slough, and is designed to create an ideal moist wound healing environment for granulating and epithelising wounds. 1 NU-GEL Hydrogel gently and effectively provides rehydration of the wound for autolytic debridement, significantly decreasing the amount of necrotic tissue and slough 2 The alginate increases the absorptive capacity of NU-GEL Hydrogel and improves the ability to control wound exudate 1 for longer wear time 1 NU-GEL Hydrogel can be applied to the wound with a simple onehanded technique NU-GEL Hydrogel is indicated for debridement and desloughing of wounds together with the management of chronic wounds throughout all stages of the healing process. Precaution NU-GEL Hydrogel contains propylene glycol which might cause irritation or sensitisation in a small number of patients. If such reactions are noted, use of NU-GEL Hydrogel should be discontinued. If wound infection is present, appropriate antimicrobial therapy should be initiated - the use of NU-GEL Hydrogel may be continued under medical supervision.
