leg ulcer
Poster presentation at the International Symposium on the Diabetic Foot Conference, Hague.
Wednesday 22nd May 2019
A great poster presentation from Dr Aye Aye Thant at the ISDF 2019 conference!
Dr Thant’s presentation demonstrated the benefits of using the Adtec SteriPlas on diabetic foot ulcer patients.
Prior to the use of the Adtec SteriPlas, all patients in their retrospective study suffered from chronic and non-healing foot and leg ulcers with multi resistant bacteria and recalcitrance to antibiotics. All patients had at least 3 courses of intravenous antibiotics for more than 6 weeks prior with poor response.
The Adtec SteriPlas was then introduced as a treatment option. Instantly, positive results could be seen with the infection management for these patients. For example, one patient who was previously considered for an amputation was now improved and risk free. Healthy granulation could be observed with all patients, offering hope and an alternative to antibiotics that would usually be offered.

Gas plasma shows promising results in the treatment of non-healing wounds
Renowned for its ability to successfully treat non-healing wounds, the Adtec SteriPlas is a must have for any dermatology and wound care departments.
This 61-year-old patient with a long-term venous ulcer was stalled from healing and present with Klebsiella oxytoca and Enterobacter cloacae. The patient went through a short treatment programme with our gas plasma medical device to achieve exceptional results. Figures (a) - (b) shows the visual changes of the ulcer throughout the short course of treatment with the Adtec SteriPlas.
At the end of the treatment programme, swabs which would normally have shown signs of bacteria were now sterile, allowing the patient to further progress into full healing.
