A Clinically Proven Combination

PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix is comprised of a sterile, freeze dried composite of 44% oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC), 55% collagen and 1% silver-ORC. Silver-ORC contains 25% w/w ionically bound silver, a well-known antimicrobial agent.

Optimum wound environment
PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix maintains a physiologically moist microenvironment at the wound surface. This environment is conducive to granulation tissue formation, epithelization and optimal wound healing. What is the role of silver in PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix? The dressing contains ionically bound silver, a well-known antimicrobial agent1.

Overview

Reduction in Wounds Displaying Signs of  Infection

 

In a 14-week RCT comparing PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix (n=25), with Control (n= 15), the number of patients withdrawn from the study due to infection was significantly greater in the control group 0% VS. 31% (p=0.012)1 (n=40) 

79% VS. 43% For the Standard of care (rate of healing was characterized as >50% reduction in wound size)1

What is ORC?

 

Cellulose is a major component of all plants. Once oxidized, ORC (Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose) is completely bioresorbable, and readily degrades through fluid absorption and subsequent gelling3

How it Works

  • OVERVIEW
  • SPECIFICATIONS

Maintains an optimum wound-healing environment

In the presence of exudate, PROMOGRAN™ Plus Matrix transforms into a soft, conformable, biodegradable gel, allowing contact with all areas of the wound. 

PROMOGRAN™ Plus Matrix maintains a physiologically moist microenvironment at the wound surface. This environment is conducive to granulation tissue formation, epithelialization and optimal wound healing.

Product description 
 
PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix is a topically applied. The product is a sterile, freeze dried, composite of oxidised regenerated

cellulose (ORC), collagen and silver-ORC, (a compound of Silver and ORC). In the presence of exudate the PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix transforms

into a soft and conformable, biodegradable gel, this allows contact with all areas of the wound. Saline or Ringer’s solution should be used to hydrate

PROMOGRAN PRISMA® Matrix on dry wounds.

Indications & Applications

  • INDICATIONS
  • APPLICATIONS
Specific indications, contraindications, warnings, precautions and safety information exist for KCI products and therapies. Healthcare providers should review the product User Manual, Safety Information and/or Instructions for Use prior to application.

PROMOGRAN™ Plus Matrix is indicated for the management of wounds healing by secondary intent which are clear of necrotic tissue including:
  • Diabetic ulcers
  • Venous ulcers
  • Pressure ulcers
  • Ulcers caused by mixed vascular aetiologies
  • Traumatic and surgical wounds

PROMOGRAN™ Plus Matrix is a primary dressing that can be cut to fit the wound with scissors and must be covered with either gauze, a non-adhering or a hydropolymer dressing in order to maintain a moist wound healing environment.

Applications

 

Storage

PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix should be stored away from direct light. Over-exposure to light may cause some discolouration, however this does not affect the release of silver from the dressing. Store below 25 °C / 77 °F. Prepare wound bed per your standard wound care protocol and debride when necessary.

 

  • For optimal effect, apply PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix directly to the whole wound bed.
  • For a wound with low or no exudate apply PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix and hydrate with saline or Ringer's solution. This will initiate the gel forming process.
  • After hydration the PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix gel will intimately contact the wound
  • The biodegradable gel is naturally absorbed over time.
 
PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix must be covered with either gauze, a non-adhering or a hydropolymer dressing in order to maintain a moist wound healing environment.
 
After initial application, re-treat the wound with PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix up to every 72 hours depending upon the amount of exudate. It is not necessary to remove any residual PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix. For heavily exuding or infected wounds it may be necessary to retreat the wound with PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix every 24 hours.
