No, MPPT is for use during the inflammatory wound healing phase. Once the wound is clean, free of infection and exhibiting new granulation tissue as
A very deep wound is rapidly built up from the bottom with new tissue and then covered with epithelium. Even after a layer of epithelium
Chlorhexidine binds strongly to the skin and tissues. Chlorhexidine is cytotoxic to fibroblasts which are the creators of the connective tissue essential to wound healing.
MPPT works by absorbing the exudate, pumping it to the enlarged surface of the MPPT layer from where it evaporates. Compression therapy normally involves covering
The components of MPPT are approved food supplements without any known cytotoxicity.MPPT has been shown to cause no wound irritation, sensitisation or bleeding.MPPT is not
Where MPPT touches the biofilm, the MPPT micro-pumps absorb and suck away the water in the biofilm. This creates holes in the biofilm which allow
Biofilm is a mucous substance that bacteria secrete and in which they embed themselves. Biofilms are part of the bacterial defences against the immune system
