- Abstract
The article highlights a study on the use of Vivostat platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) from Vivolution A/S on hard-to-heal wounds. Out of the 13 wounds from 12 patients that were treated, 8 had closed after leaving the Vivostat PRF in wounds for 8 days, while 3 wounds had reduced in diameter by up to 66%. No complications were observed as a result of the treatment and none of the patients reported any pain.
