Innovation Theater Breakfast (Non-Accredited): Debride it Like You Mean It: The Clinical Advantages of Combining Pure Hypochlorous Acid with Negatively Charged Fibers

Sponsored by Urgo Medical North America.
Current published consensus guidelines from IWII, WRR, and NPIAP tell us that debridement is vital to the healing processes because “microbial colonies begin to reform 24 hours after debridement” and the presence of “slough or necrotic tissue can promote bacterial growth…[and] prevent the formation of granulation tissue…” and furthermore, it is proven that “more frequent debridement was associated with improved healing.” However, current debridement options such as: sharp, autolytic, mechanical, or ointment-based debridement options have their limits. Join this panel as they discuss wound cleansing as the first step in debridement with pure Hypochlorous acid and introduce a revolutionary advanced dressing that supports the continuous debridement of slough, UrgoClean Ag. They will expand on UrgoClean Ag’s effectiveness to continuously clean the wound bed by leveraging the dressing’s unique and proprietary charged fibers throughout the wear time and the direct synergies between Vashe and UrgoClean Ag to enhance wound debridement.
