ISS: Insights from the Lab and Clinical Practice: Combined Use of Hypochlorite Free pHA Cleanser and Highly Charged Fiber Dressings for Wound Healing

Supported by an educational grant from Urgo Medical North America. <br>
<br>
Learning Objectives:<br>
• Explain why effective germ removal is critical to optimal wound healing.<br>
• Examine how HOCl-based cleansers and gels work, and the rationale behind why cleansers should be hypochlorite-free.<br>
• Describe how highly charged fibers capture slough and analyze how HOCl-based cleansers support and enhance the desloughing process.<br>
• Evaluate how the clinical implementation of science-based desloughing and debriding products influences patient outcomes and overall wound care quality.<br>

Accredited Industry-Supported Symposium: Breaking the Cycle of Wound Infection: Integrating Antimicrobial Therapies with Advanced Wound Bed Preparation

HMP Education has designated unrestricted grants from Urgo Medical North America.<br>
<br>
<strong>Learning Objectives:</strong><br>
1) Examine the key patient-focused factors contributing to wound infection and delayed healing in today’s clinical environment.<br>
2) Evaluate the use of antimicrobial interventions—including systemic antibiotics, antimicrobial dressings, and preserved wound cleansers—and assess their effectiveness in managing wound bioburden.<br>
3) Review advancements in wound bed preparation technologies designed to address slough, debris, and microbial burden, including hypochlorous acid solutions and charged fiber-based debridement support technologies.<br>
4) Explore the mechanism of action and emerging evidence supporting the use of hypochlorous acid as an adjunctive therapy for managing Candida auris wound infections<br>
5) Analyze real-world patient cases to identify evidence-based approaches for managing wound infection and promoting effective wound bed cleansing and debridement.<br>
