UrgoStart Contact - Flexible Lipido-Colloid Contact Layer Dressing with TLC- NOSF

UrgoStart Contact offers all the benefits of TLC-NOSF (moist environment, faster wound healing). TLC NOSF
TLC [Technology Lipido-Colloid) combined with NOSF (Nano-Oligo Saccharide Factor] is a patented innovative technology which in contact with wound exudate forms a gel and creates a moist environment, enabling the key cells involved in the repair process (fibroblasts, keratinocytes, macrophages) to exert their action.

TLC-NOSF interacts with the micro-environment of the wound by preventing the detrimental effect of Matrix MetalloProteases (MMPs] which in excess in chronic wounds creates a continuous degradation of the extracellular matrix and delayed wound healing.

TLC-NOSF restores balance in the wound bed so granulation of chronic wounds can occur. UrgoStart Contact thereby promotes faster wound healing.

The efficacy of TLC-NOSF has been demonstrated in several clinical studies including Randomised Controlled Trials (1,2). UrgoStart Contact does not adhere either to the wound or the surrounding skin: the dressing changes are painless for the patient and atraumatic for the newly formed tissues in the wound.

The properties of UrgoStart are numerous:

• accelerates wound healing
• maintains a moist environment favorable to the wound healing process
• atraumatic and painless removal for patients
• very comformable
