Cytomedix – Booth 733
Cytomedix develops biologically active regenerative therapies for wound care, angiogenesis, and inflammation. We harness the complex balance of essential life processes to mirror the body’s therapeutic efficiency. Chronic non-healing wounds are often stuck in the inflammatory stage of wound repair. Lack of perfusion or pressure prevents blood delivered proteins from reaching the wound bed. Some wounds remain unhealed for years. The AutoloGel™ System re-establishes the natural balance needed to move out of the inflammatory phase, restoring the natural healing process. AutoloGel delivers to the wound bed platelet-rich plasma gel (PRP), containing growth factors, cytokines, and chemokines, creating an extracellular matrix for cell migration, growth of capillaries and granulation tissue The AutoloGel System is the only FDA-cleared system for use at point-of-care for the safe and rapid preparation of PRP from a small sample of the patient’s own blood. The AutoloGel System is for exuding wounds, such as leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, and diabetic ulcers and for mechanically, and surgically debrided wounds.
