SanguiBioTech: Practitioners present wound healing case studies under Granulox treatment European Wound Management Congress shows increasing interest in Granulox as a successful approach to support wound therapies Witten, Germany, June 2, 2015 – This year’s annual congress of the European Wound Management Association (EWMA, May 13 – 15, 2015) in London staged medical researchers and practitioners from different European countries who reported about successful treatment of chronic wounds using the Sangui developed Granulox medical device, distributed by global licensee SastoMed GmbH. Presented were results of studies and series of therapies carried out in Birmingham and Brentwood (United Kingdom), Ljubljana (Slovenia), Zurich (Switzerland) as well as Frankfurt (Germany). Well attended was a symposium chaired by professor Joachim Dissemond of Essen University, on invitation of SastoMed GmbH. Speakers included Assistant Professor Severin Läuchli, Head of the Department of Dermatology of the University Hospital in Zurich/Switzerland, who presented numerous case studies and came to the conclusion that the additional use of Granulox is able to induce granulation in a large share of previously non healing wounds and that this therapeutic option means a significant improvement for patients. Dr. Paul Chadwick and Joy Tickle are members of an expert panel convened in the United Kingdom and assessing healing technologies designed to improve wound care standards. They presented the first national consensus recommendation on use of topical hemoglobin spray for the treatment of chronic wounds. The recommendation is based on a diligent assessment of all available scientific data as well an own set of individual trials to assess viability and effectiveness of a Granulox treatment. (cf. www.wounds-uk.com, EWMA 2015 Special Edition). In one of the plenary sessions, moreover, Assistant Professor Joachim Klode presented initial results of a study regarding the use of photo-acoustic tomography, an innovative imaging process which was deployed to reliably image and quantify the concentration of oxygenated and des-oxygenated hemoglobin in wounds. This enables practitioners to verify and document the systematic connection between improved oxygenation as induced by the use of Granulox on the one hand and the observed improvements of healing and patient quality of life on the other. Another presentation held in this session was based on a 72 patient study. The statistical assessment and simulated extrapolation of healing processes indicated a significant improvement of wound healing under a treatment with Granulox. The proceedings of the Congress demonstrate an increasing international regard to the innovative hemoglobin spray aimed to support the healing of chronic wounds. It also exemplifies what an intensive and persistent discussion within the expert community it takes to promote the market entry of a completely innovative treatment.
