Wound care

Wound infections are typically caused by Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Enterococcus, Proteus, Pseudomonas, Escherichia and others. Wounds are very often infected with several different bacterial species (polymicrobial bacteremia) or infection is caused by biofilms forming bacteria or those with antibiotic resistance, like MRSA (Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus). Especially difficult to treat are infected wounds in diabetic patients (diabetic foot), burns, ulcers and surgical wounds.

S. aureus is one of the most common bacteria found in infected wounds of all types, therefore Auresine is the best weapon to be used – it kills Staphylococcus species, including strains isolated from infected wounds.

Antibacterial wound dressing for difficult to treat infected wounds: infected surgical wounds, diabetic foot, ulcers, burns
