Organogenesis Inc. Launched Major Study to Treat Pressure Ulcers
Pressure ulcers
(also known as "bedsores") arise as a result of skin
breakdown, usually over bony prominences, occurring as a result
of prolonged pressure. Patients with limited mobility, such as those
bedridden, are particularly prone to pressure ulcers. Pressure ulcers
can occur most anywhere in the body but are especially troublesome
in the pelvic area. The severity of pressure ulcers can range from
relatively minor skin redness (Stage I) to major wounds that extend
all the way to bone (Stage IV). Organogenesis is studying the use
of Apligraf® compared to conventional treatment for
treatment of Stage III pressure ulcers located in the pelvic area.
Fifteen medical centers are participating in this groundbreaking
Phase III study.
