Description :
UrgoStart Plus Pad is composed of a unique TLC-NOSF Healing Matrix (NOSF* impregnated in a TLC healing matrix), which has been shown to reduce excess Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs). In addition, UrgoStart Plus Pad unique poly-absorbent fibres come into direct contact with the wound to absorb and retain exudate. Thanks to their high affinity to slough, the fibres bind, trap and retain exudate, slough and debris present in the wound, keeping it clean throughout healing.
NICE 2019 medical technology guidance (MTG42) states that evidence supports the case for adopting UrgoStart dressings to treat diabetic foot ulcers and venous leg ulcers.
INDICATIONS :
UrgoStart Plus is indicated for all stages (from the desloughing stage to complete healing) of exuding wounds including leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, and long-standing acute wounds.
BENEFITS:
- With its unique TLC-NOSF* Healing Matrix (NOSF* impregnated in a TLC healing matrix) UrgoStart Plus is the only local treatment proven to reduce healing time and close wounds sooner
- The sooner the UrgoStart treatment range is initiated, the more effective it is.
- UrgoStart Plus range acts from Day 1 to complete healing, whatever the wound healing phase
- The UrgoStart Treatment range’s efficacy in healing significantly sooner has been demonstrated in the highest level of clinical studies (double-blind, randomised controlled trials) and through observational studies.
- Thanks to the TLC Technology, UrgoStart Plus maintains a moist wound healing environment and allows pain-free & atraumatic removals.
