Amicapsil treatment of acute stage 3 pressure ulcer

Amicapsil was used for the treatment of an infected acute grade 3 pressure ulcer on ischial tuberosity in a person with spinal cord injury.
 

At the time of starting treatment with Amicapsil, the pressure ulcer had been observed approximately two weeks earlier. The treatment use prior to Amicapsil-SCI was irrigation with saline, disinfection with Vashe, Medihoney in the wound bed, and covered with a Medipore dressing. Signs of a minor infection was present with the person running a temperature of 99-101F (37.2-38.3C) the past few days. The sore at start measured 1.5 cm x 2.5 cm.

Spinal cord injury interferes with the immune response and in addition a medication known to affect cell proliferation was taken. The interference of this medication with healing could be seen.

The infection in the wound included Serratia marcescens, an anaerobic multi-resistant bacterium, which produces a red toxin that inhibits the immune cells. The toxin can be seen as the red colour on the dressing Day 18.

After 77 days, Amicapsil treatment results in full closure of the acute stage 3 pressure ulcer.
