The average reduction in wound surface area achieved was 1.4cm² per week.
The average reduction in depth of the wound was 0.1cm per week.
In managing chronic wounds, collagen dressings have shown to be an effective modality. Our evidence based clinical study shows that when a Bovine Type I collagen is utilized as a treatment for a full thickness wound; approximately 10% reduction in wound surface area and 9.5% in the depth of the wound may be achieved. Though our study is limited by small sample size but clinical data is consistent with the positive effects of Type I collagen in the management of Chronic wounds.
