autologel
DESCRIPTION
The AutoloGel System utilizes a unique technology that enables rapid isolation and activation of platelet rich plasma (PRP) from a patient’s own blood. The PRP is subsequently processed to produce a gel for application to the wound bed, re-establishing a balance needed for natural healing to occur. AutoloGel contains growth factors, cytokines and chemokines that are essential for normal wound healing. The AutoloGel System is used at the point-of care and is the only PRP System indicated for use in exuding wounds such as leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers and for the management of mechanically or surgically-debrided wounds.TRANSCRIPT

The Science
Natural Wound Healing - A Complex Process
• The human body heals itself naturally • Four Stages of Healing
– Hemostasis>>Inflammatory>>Proliferation>>Remodeling• Healthy wounds heal because of:
– A moist wound environment– Adequate blood flow to the wound bed– Delivery of nutrients and proteins to the wound bed
• These wound repair proteins include: – Growth Factors– Cytokines– Chemokines

Wound Repair Proteins Role in Healing
Chronic Wounds – Imbalanced Environment
• Wounds that do not heal within 30 days are considered chronic
• Chronic wounds are typically accompanied by edema, ischemia, lack of perfusion create an imbalance of blood derived growth factors, cytokines, and chemokines in the wound bed
• Imbalances in the relative levels of growth factors, chemokines, and cytokines cause delays in progressing the wound
• Single growth factors and concentrated growth factors do not establish this complex, balance, making them incomplete solutions

Chronic Wound – Stuck in Inflammatory

Chronic Wounds – Inflammatory Stage
• The lack of balance caused by a deficiency in the wound bed of naturally occurring growth factors, cytokines, chemokines can cause wounds to stall in the inflammatory stage
• The body is unable to heal itself due to a lack of cellular proteins and nutrients
• Wounds caught in a prolonged inflammatory stage are linked to infection, tissue damage by free radicals and proteases.
• A cycle of wound deterioration is then supported by inflammatory mediators, causing the wound to actually worsen.
Restore The Balance
The AutoloGel™ System
The AutoloGel System – Restore the Balance
AutoloGel harnesses the natural healing process– The patients’ own blood derived growth factors, cytokines and
chemokines delivered as a proprietary formulation directly to the prepared wound bed
– Re-establishes the natural, balanced environment in the wound– Restored balance allows non healing, chronic wounds to become
healthy and capable of self healing
The AutoloGel System – Restore the Balance
AutoloGel provides essential nutrients and proteins to the wound – Plasma derived fibrin and fibronectin scaffolding– Platelet releasate gel containing growth factors, cytokines and chemokines– Proprietary formulation targeting improved collagen synthesis and removal
of damaging free radicals– MMP inhibitors found in plasma that inhibit destructive protease activity– Serum albumin to block the spread of neutrophils and free radicals– A moist wound environment
Re established balance to Wound Bed

Economic Analysis of Wound Therapies
Cost effectiveness sensitivity analysis using published data on different wound therapies.– Findings shows AutoloGel System™ to cost less and have better quality
of Life adjusted years over saline gel, standard wound care, tissue engineered grafts, ultrasound devices; single growth factor or NPWT
– Analysis used published peer reviewed clinical outcomes to establish predictors for unbiased computer model.
– Analyzed 200,000 patient experiences – Long term outlook of 5 year impact is more reflective of true cost of
wound management to the US healthcare system

The AutoloGel System – A Simple Procedure
AutoloGel™ System – Platelet Rich Plasma Gel
AutoloGel™ texture and consistency can vary due to patients blood chemistriesAutoloGel™ application flexibility for clinician convenience
• Directly from the syringe, • Using the the blunt needle for deep crevices, tunneling undermining • Using provided veil* as an application tool• Using gloved hand to insure good contact with the wound surface
*(N-Terface™ – non woven, adherent or absorptive)
The AutoloGel™ System - Dressing Change
N-Terface™
Primary Dressing Secondary Dressing
• AutoloGel™ may be used up to twice a week for eight (8) weeks • The practitioner may elect to continue for up to twelve (12) weeks • AutoloGel System™ should be used in conjunction with standard of care for comprehensive wound management• AutoloGel™ primary dressing should not be changed for 24-48 hours to allow absorption. Carefully irrigate to prevent disturbing new granulation• The secondary dressing may be changed as needed.
