Unique combination of hyaluronic acid and amino acids in the management of patients with a wide range of moderate-to-severe chronic wounds: Evidence from international clinical practice

Abstract

The availability of new products and strategies to manage wounds has taken a quantum leap in recent years. Healthcare professionals now have an extensive range of products to choose from, but while positive this also raises dilemmas in real-world clinical practice to decide on the most appropriate treatment for a given patient. Clinical trials confirm the effectiveness of the unique combination of hyaluronic acid and amino acids (Vulnamin®) in a range of wounds, but are these results replicated in real-world clinical practice? International experts presented their clinical experience with the use of the combination in difficult-to-treat wounds. The objective was to reach a consensus on how and when to use the unique combination products to provide a cost-effective, convenient option, in all healthcare settings that improves QoL for patients and their carers.
