New Clinical Evidence Continues to Support the Effectiveness and Value of AMNIOX Medical ProductsAMNIOX Medical, Inc., a TissueTech, Inc. company, announced today that nine clinical posters demonstrating the effectiveness of NEOX® Wound Allograft - Amniox's proprietary cryopreserved Umbilical Cord and Amniotic Membrane (UC/AM) product for chronic wound management - were presented at the Symposium on Advanced Wound Care (SAWC) and Wound Healing Society Meeting. The meeting was held at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, California, from April 5-9. Following peer review, all nine posters were accepted for presentation at the symposium. These posters present therapeutic and surgical applications of NEOX Wound Allograft in a range of severe wound types that are resistant to the current standard of care. These wounds include wounds resulting from radiation therapy; wounds due to Charcot arthropathy; severe burns; trauma wounds; chronic non-healing ulcers; skin grafts and wounds post-treatment for Basal Cell Carcinoma. With all of these complex, hard-to-heal cases, patients achieved closure of their wounds subsequent to applications of NEOX, including a number of situations where these patients had failed other advanced therapies. "The posters presented at SAWC highlight NEOX's clinical effectiveness and value in a variety of wounds that are difficult to treat with typical wound care modalities," said Thomas J. Dugan, Chief Executive Officer of Amniox Medical. "Across all of this clinical experience, patients treated with NEOX experienced closure of hard-to-heal wounds. The strength of this clinical evidence continue to drive demand for unique regenerative properties of umbilical cord tissue." Studies presented at SAWC included the following posters:
