Wound healing can be defined as that technique that favors the healing tissue in any injury until it is healed. This process requires special treatment in the case of chronic wounds, such as pressure ulcers, vascular ulcers and surgical wounds that heal by secondary intention.

Such wounds may take more time to heal due to various underlying factors, and therefore it is necessary to intervene. Nursing personnel who attend to these wounds require knowledge of the elements that support advanced healing.

CertMedicals provides advanced wound care to the patients with alteration in the normal healing process, eliminating barriers that prevent tissue regeneration using active dressings (aimed to establish an optimal microenvironment for wound healing), thereby reducing the number of dressings and the hospitalization time.

Advanced Wound Care Service at CertMedicals

CertMedicals provides services at the hospital and outpatient level on an individual basis, with personnel specialized in the care of wounds and ostomies.

At CertMedicals, we treat patients with venous ulcers, diabetic foot, gangrene, ulcers due to arterial insufficiency, pressure ulcers, bedsores, and complicated surgical wounds, among other conditions that can lead to the loss of the limbs if left untreated.

Our philosophy is to jointly attend to the disease that caused the wound, and in parallel apply local care according to standards in a process called ‘targeted healing.’
