Skin Integrity and Infection Prevention Las Vegas: don't bust on biofilm, bet on dHACM.

ABSTRACT

The 4th International Skin Integrity and Infection Prevention conference, hosted by the Journal of Wound Care and the University of Huddersfield, was held earlier this year in Las Vegas. A key theme was the impact of biofilm on wound healing. In the second of our sponsored symposia reports, the manner in which delayed healing can be reversed through effective biofilm management, and the introduction of regulatory proteins found in dehydrated human amnion chorion membrane allograft were explained.
