Let’s Test^TM

Recent data shows that in chronic wounds with elevated protease activity (EPA) there is a 90% probability the wound won’t heal without appropriate intervention¹. 28% of non-healing wounds have EPA¹ and there are no visual cues².

“The development of specific diagnostic tests for use in wounds has the potential to revolutionise their treatment…and help improve standards of wound care (while) aiding in the cost effective use of limited resources… As a result, a test that readily provides this information might be clinically useful in predicting if a wound is likely to heal and whether an intervention that modifies protease activity may be useful³.”
