Oasis: an innovative alternative dressing for chronic wounds.
Chronic wounds in patients with multiple systemic factors present a significant clinical challenge for clinicians. Oasis Wound Dressing is derived from porcine small intestine which, when placed in a non-infected wound, stimulates new tissue and an absorbable, natural template for the growth of new tissue. Emerging evidence suggests that it is beneficial for patients with chronic, non-healing wounds complicated by multiple systemic factors.
