£1.7m project to explore groundbreaking new treatment for biofilm infections in foot ulcers
A new £1.7m project to explore using plasma jets and antimicrobial dressings to treat debilitating – and potentially deadly – wound infections launches today.
The groundbreaking Plasma-activated Antimicrobial Hydrogel Therapy (PAHT) would provide a new treatment modality for biofilm infections in diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), a type of wound which make up around 10 per cent of the 2.2m wounds reported annually in the UK.
More than a third of the +4.5m diabetics in the UK have a lifetime risk of foot ulcers, of which 50 per cent become infected. Around 10 per cent of these patients then require lower limb amputation due to tissue and bone infection. The prognosis for these patients is bleak; 44 per cent usually die within five years.
