NEW CASE STUDIES: SEE HOW NUSHIELD® HELPED TO SUPPORT WOUND MANAGEMENT

Real-world evidence

Caporusso et al case series1

In real-world patients (retrospective case series), NuShield® was used as a protective barrier in a wide variety of wounds (N=50), including VLUs (n=14), DFUs (n=24), and other wounds (pressure ulcers, as a protective barrier, nonhealing surgical, ischemic, mixed etiology, and nonhealing amputation; n=12).1

DFU=diabetic foot ulcer; VLU=venous leg ulcer

Median time to wound closure1

When NuShield was used as a protective barrier as part of the course of wound management.

Estimated median time to complete wound closure for wounds from a Cox regression model with terms for age, sex, wound type, wound duration, baseline wound area, and duration in clinic. Test of equality over strata: P=0.071 (Wilcoxon). *All wounds includes DFUs, VLUs, and other wounds. †Other includes 3 pressure injuries; 4 nonhealing surgical, 1 ischemic, and 1 mixed etiology wound; 1 nonhealing amputation; and 1 not identified.1

Percentage of wounds closed by week1

When NuShield was used as a protective barrier as part of the course of wound management.

Estimated frequency of complete wound closure for wounds from a Cox regression model with terms for age, sex, wound type, wound duration, baseline wound area, and duration in clinic. Test of equality over strata: P=0.071 (Wilcoxon). *All wounds includes DFUs, VLUs, and other wounds. †Other includes 3 pressure injuries; 4 nonhealing surgical, 1 ischemic, and 1 mixed etiology wound; 1 nonhealing amputation; and 1 not identified.1

Of those wounds that did not achieve wound closure, 9 (18%) had >90% wound closure, and 8 (16%) had wound closures ranging from 60% to 90% by the last observation.1
