Elevating Continuum of Care Practices: From Infection to Healing

Session outline

At Urgo Medical, our mission is to support health care professionals and make a difference in the lives of their patients. By providing evidence-based wound care treatment and support, we aim to work in partnership with healthcare professionals to move from managing wounds to healing wounds to help improve patient outcomes and reduce healing time.

We have recently launched the Urgo Ag Range, the latest addition to our advanced wound care portfolio. The UrgoClean Ag and UrgoTul Ag feature the Technology Lipido-Colloid (TLC) matrix impregnated with silver ions (TLC-Ag) to fight against local infection and restore the healing process.

In addition to the Urgo Ag Range, we also have the UrgoStart® Plus Treatment Range to complete our protocol of care. The UrgoStart® Plus Treatment range is a complete 3-in-1 solution to clean, heal and close wounds sooner, from day 1 to complete healing. The treatment range is clinically proven to accelerate wound healing and is recommended by the IWGDF, NICE and DFA guidelines.

Combining the Urgo Ag Range with the UrgoStart® Plus Treatment Range forms the comprehensive Urgo Medical Treatment Solution. This innovative approach enables clinicians to combat infection using UrgoClean Ag or UrgoTul Ag for step-down therapy, while simultaneously accelerating wound healing and progression through the application of the UrgoStart® Plus Treatment Range for step-up therapy.

During this session, we will outline the product features and benefits of the solution, highlight clinical evidence, present local and international guidelines and invite our guest speaker to present their clinical experience implementing the solution to improve patient outcomes.
