2024年12月27日 · The intact Kerecis fish skin is being used to treat wounds, burns and other complex acute and chronic wounds including diabetic, venous, trauma, and surgical wounds. Thousands of patients of all incomes, cultures and races have benefited from treatment with …

Fish skin has shown anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties that support and improve wound healing in a variety of wounds including burns and diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). There is ongoing research that evaluates the efficacy of fish skin grafts in comparison to alternative wound healing techniques.

2024年8月12日 · Fish skin grafts are a new medical technology that experts are still testing. Doctors have used them to treat several types of wounds, including burns. They link with numerous benefits...

The grafts contain fat, protein, elastin, glycans and other natural skin elements, and are fenestrated to allow adequate wound drainage for appropriate wound moisture at the wound bed. Shield products are integrated with a silicone contact layer to protect the wound and for added workflow efficiency.

2023年11月1日 · Fish skin grafts are considered an option for wound healing for the following reasons: Omega-3 fatty acid content, relatively gentle preservation process, ideal cellular structure and a smaller disease transmission risk compared with allografts and other xenografts (Hu et al, 2017; Luze et al, 2022).

2024年8月22日 · This systematic review aims to provide an update on clinical studies investigating the effects of FSG on healing for the following indications: donor sites of split-thickness skin grafts, superficial and deep partial-thickness burns, full-thickness burns, combat wounds, and other acute wounds.Methods: A systematic review of the peer-reviewed ...

2024年6月1日 · Fish skin graft treatment has been shown to be efficacious in the treatment of DFU wounds. The unique properties of FSG allow it to adhere well to the wound bed, limit the number of dressings needed, promote pro-inflammatory healing, and promote the wound bed, limit the number of dressings required, and promote faster and more complete wound ...

the fish-skin graft may also help the wound escape the chronic inflammatory state by giving rise to pro-resolving Omega3 wound product is used to reconstruct human tissue in wounds. Kerecis Omega3 fish skin is marketed in the U.S., Europe, and Southeast Asia and has been cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

A fish skin xenograft from cold-water fish (Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua) is a relatively recent option that shows promising preclinical and clinical results in wound healing. Chronic wounds vary greatly in etiology and nature, requiring large cohorts for effective comparison between therapeutic alternatives.

Recent advances in the development of applicable xenografts as an alternative to split-thickness skin grafts have allowed for the development of acellular fish skin. Acellular fish skin acts as a skin substitute, reducing inflammatory responses and advancing proinflammatory cytokines that promote wound healing.
