Thomas presents at the ISHLT show

A fantastic presentation delivered by Thomas Schlöglhofer yesterday at the ISHLT - International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation show. We hope you got the chance to see his presentation and the promising results he has achieved managing LVAD infections with our Cold Plasma SteriPlas medical device. If you are interested to learn more about the SteriPlas and the benefits it can bring to your patients, please contact us at info@adtecplasma.com

 


A great start to the ISHLT show

What a fantastic start to the International Society For Heart and Lung Transplantation! We’ve been swamped with your presence and interest. It’s been a pleasure to meet new and old faces and we’ve been excited to share how well our leading Cold Plasma SteriPlas medical device is changing lives in the UK and Europe for LVAD patients.

We look forward to welcoming you to our booth no.416 ready to introduce you to the strong benefits of our Cold Plasma efficacy.


Cold Plasma Walk at ISHLT

We’re excited to be exhibiting at the ISHLT conference next week and we look forward to supporting Mr Thomas Schlöglhofer as he presents his SteriPlas Cold Plasma presentation for the management of LVAD infections during the “Bugs, Drugs, and Thugs: Fighting Infection in VADs Any Way We Can” session on Wednesday 19th April between 5:30 PM - 6:30 PM.

Due to popular demand, we will be hosting a Cold Plasma Walk session at our exhibition booth on Wednesday 19th April during the lunch break. We encourage you to visit our booth no. 416 so you can see Thomas present our medical device and explain the strong benefits it can bring to the management of LVAD infections.

 

Our proven and patented Cold Plasma medical device has been widely adopted as the solution for LVAD infections due to its unique physical mode of action, quick treatment times and accelerated healing with stalled infections due to biofilm all whilst protecting the patient and user from no side effects.

How does the Adtec SteriPlas work so effectively?

Our patented cold plasma therapy utilises a physical mode of action approach delivered from an indirect microwave plasma source. Our cold argon plasma is an electrically charged and ionised gas that consists of charged particles, UV light and reactive oxygen and nitrogen species with the latter created as a by-product. They all work collectively to physically rupture the structure of bacteria even if they are protected within biofilm. Regardless of the type of bacteria, its resistance profile or whether they are Gram-positive or Gram-negative our cold plasma works quickly and effectively to destroy them. This has the leading advantage over conventional therapies such as antibiotics that rely on a chemical mode of action approach.

 

Although antibiotics have been a pivotal part of today’s medicine, they also contribute towards antimicrobial resistance rates particularly because bacteria can develop resistance such as those observed with diabetic foot ulcers that can often lead to amputations as a result.

 

However, as well as being fast-acting and effective, our cold plasma has shown that a primary or secondary resistance is unlikely to be developed due to its physical mode of action.

 


Mr Schlöglhofer to present SteriPlas at the ISHLT

Congratulations to Thomas Schlöglhofer from the Medical University of Vienna for his continued success of using our medical device to treat infections in LVAD patients. He will be presenting at The International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT) conference in April to deliver the great results he has so far achieved.

 

His presentation, “Cold Atmospheric Plasma Therapy: A Powerful Tool for Treating Driveline Infections in Left Ventricular Assist Device Patients” will be during the “Bugs, Drugs, and Thugs: Fighting Infection in VADs Any Way We Can” Session on Wednesday 19th April between 5:30 PM - 6:30 PM.

 

We hope you will be there too to see him deliver his promising results.

SteriPlas heals wounds quickly

Did you catch the leading Serbian media newspaper, Večernje Novosti, last week? Our SteriPlas was featured in the article, “Cold plasma heals wounds quickly” composed by Dr Zorić.

Dr Zoric has been using our cold plasma medical device to treat hard-to-heal and stalled wounds infected with biofilm. These problematic wounds have responded very well with our SteriPlas treatment and patients have been healed that were otherwise stalled by conventional therapies.

 

If you are within Serbia and interested to learn more about our medical device, contact our medical distributor Borf Health Care on info@borf.biz for more information.

 


Dr H. Rotering presenting SteriPlas DSWI efficacy at Herzmidizin 2023 conference

 

Dr Heinrich Rotering will be presenting at the Herzmedizin 2023 conference on 14th February 2023. His presentation, “Tissue saving – Plasma based treatment concept for sternal infection including one year follow-up” will show the benefits of our SteriPlas cold plasma medical device for the treatment of deep sternal wound infections.

 

The benefit our cold plasma device has for these chronic wound infections is the ability to give a deep penetration treatment allowing plasma coverage over the wide infected area. As our medical device is the only microwave-powered, argon cold plasma device with a wide 12cm2 treatment size and is contact-free, the overall sessions are quickly completed. The mean wound healing for deep sternal wound infections is 16 days with the SteriPlas.

Cold Plasma Diabetic Foot Ulcer Clinical Trial Published

https://www.woundsinternational.com/journals/issue/667/article-details/efficacy-non-thermal-gas-plasma-treatment-diabetic-foot-ulcers-stalled-subclinical-biofilm-related-wound-infection

Congratulations to Dr Cornelia Wiegand for her published clinical trial paper, “The efficacy of non-thermal gas plasma in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers stalled by subclinical, biofilm-related wound infection”. This clinical trial paper features the use of our SteriPlas Cold Plasma medical device for the treatment of chronic DFUs infected with biofilm.

 

The parameters of this study were set much higher than a normal study, with there being a much higher standard of care given (3x per week) vs a typical outpatient setting of 1x weekly.

 

We wanted to show that even when chronic diabetic foot ulcers are subjected to more frequent outpatient visits with biopsies and swabs included (something not often collected during standard outpatient visits), SteriPlas Cold Plasma still prevails as the successful treatment method due to its physical mode of action and ability to kill all types of bacteria protected within biofilm.

 


Advanced Wound Care Summit Europe 2022

 

It was an honour to present at the Advanced Wound Care Summit Europe conference this week. Our extensive knowledge and library of clinical trials and our history as the experienced leader of Cold Plasma medicine was presented to the audience to bring light to the positive benefits of Adtec Cold Plasma devices.

 

If you would like to hear more about our efficacy and strengths for wounds, surgical site infections and medical dermatology, send us a PM or email us at info@adtecplasma.com


Presenting at The Advanced Wound Care Summit Europe

 

We’re looking forward to the Advanced Wound Care Summit Europe conference. On the 13th December, our Managing Director, Mary McGovern, will be presenting “Cold Plasma Medicine – Clinical Trials and Regulatory Challenges” where she will explain the importance of clinical trials to test the safety and efficacy of a medical device and the challenges that one can expect.

Since we were the first company worldwide to introduce cold plasma treatment on wounds in clinical trials, it comes to no surprise that we have good experience in this field. Adtec Healthcare boasts a wide collection of clinical trials and studies of our SteriPlas cold plasma medical device to authenticate the efficacy, safety and no side effects claims that we state.  We have proven clinical efficacy of managing infections in diabetic foot ulcers and surgical site infections where other treatments have failed.

 

Evident to our success, this is why Adtec Healthcare’s clinical trials and studies are often referenced by other cold plasma manufacturers who do not have their own clinical studies. With patient safety in mind, clinical trials proving the efficacy must be completed by each manufacturer for the technology used in their device.
