Highlights of the clinical experience presented by Dr. Bohn's poster presentations include:

Commenting on Altrazeal(TM), Dr. Gregory Bohn stated, "Altrazeal(TM) can be a work horse in the wound care field. I have seen dramatic clinical results on many different types of problematic wounds. I have also found that Altrazeal(TM) increases wound care dressing wear time which has been instrumental in increasing patients' treatment compliance and enabling costs to be constrained within Medicare monthly limits for stomal and wound care supplies. Additionally, combining Altrazeal(TM) with contact casts for Wagner grade 2 diabetic foot ulcers has reduced our days to heal from 41 days to 15.2 days representing a substantial cost savings and avoiding morbidity for our diabetic patients."

Also included in the poster presentations by Dr. Bohn was evidence of the benefits of using Altrazeal(TM), including:

Altrazeal(TM), a transforming powder dressing which is produced using our patented Nanoflex(TM) Technology, is suitable for exuding wounds such as burns, abrasions, trauma, skin graft donor sites, surgical wounds and chronic slow-healing wounds such as diabetic foot ulcers, pressure ulcers and venous ulcers. Altrazeal(TM) is an innovative breakthrough, designed for greater effectiveness in wound closure by promoting an optimal moist wound healing environment, reducing pain and enhancing patient comfort, ease of application and removal and, in most cases, not requiring a secondary dressing.

Renaat Van den Hooff, President and CEO of ULURU Inc. further commented, "We are delighted with the results achieved by Dr. Bohn and the extensive supporting clinical evidence he has generated. The cost effectiveness, accelerated healing, pain reduction and quality of life evidence provides strong support for our sales and marketing activities. This positive clinical evidence using Atlrazeal(TM) includes many different wound types including diabetic foot ulcers, venous ulcers, burns, chronic traumatic wounds and degenerative skin conditions."
