Why is this a Program?
Three New Adjunctive Technologies
The HMD "Pay-for-Performance" Wound Program™ uses three Scientifically Proven adjunctive technologies to treat the Chronic Wound.
By using these in the right sequence and following the treatment protocols in the HMD Wound Program, these wounds will heal in a natural and predictable way without harmful side effects to the patient.
Follow the program and HMD Guarantees the healing progression!
PEMF: Turn on the natural healing process
Pulsed Electro Magnetic Frequency therapy (PEMF) is scientifically proven to stimulate and drive wound healing at its maximum rate.
The frequency of this signal (27.1 MHz) and pulsed at a specific duration ( FDA Approved for Pain and Swelling) is shown to turn the body on at the localized wound site to drive the natural healing process through the four stages of wound healing at its maximum rate (CMS approved for Chronic Wounds).
Blood flow is increased, fibro blasts are recruited, the mitotic cycle is driven at its maximum rate, full gene expression occurs, the wound heals normally from the inside out, and proper healing occurs with limited scar tissue.
When the wound is properly healed, it rarely re opens at that site! View slideshow
Benefits of PEMF to Chronic Wound Healing:
- Normal Wound Healing: Turns the chronic wound on to heal in a predictable manner
- Safe: Treatment wave form is a long cold wave so no heat build-up in the tissue.
- Easy to Use: Patients and Clinical Staff find it easy to add to their normal protocols of treatment
- Lowers Cost: Chronic wounds heal faster (50%)
- Continuum of Care: PEMF can be used at all levels of the healthcare delivery system.
Patented Silver Technology:
The catalytic silver used in the HMD Wound Support Solution is patented (Patent # 6939568) three ways. ( Production Process, Particle, and Diseases) The silver particle is made of three elements.
1. Core particle of Colloidal Silver
2. Shell of Ionic Silver
3. Two positive Electrical Charges.
The colloidal silver particle is nano in size and 99.9% pure silver. The double charge makes the silver very stable and so the silver passes through the body without being absorbed in the skin tissues (non toxic). The double charge resonates at a frequency of 860-910 THz which is the same frequency at which the blue lights in sterile labs operate. The design of the silver allows a low concentration of silver to be used (24PPM) with a much higher kill rate (10 Times) over normal single charged Colloidal Silver particles.

The benefits of this Catalytic Silver to Chronic Wound Healing:
- Non Toxic - Not absorbed by the body (no blue skin)
- Catalytic Action: Multiple ways of killing bacteria
(immune system does not build a resistance) - Low Concentration: Does not kill fibroblasts
- Fast Delivery: Does not need leaching action to take place like in normal silver dressing
Xylinum Cellulose Dressing:
The dressing is non-prescription semi permeable occlusive biosynthetic material derived from an Acetobacator xylinum, an non-pathogenic bacterium found in nature. The cellulose product is approximately .05 mm in thickness and when dry has the consistency of very thin tissue paper, but upon wetting acquires significant to both sheer and tear force. Microbial cellulose acts as a scaffold covering the granulation tissue and will help to attract fibroblasts to the wound bas which in turn, lay down collagen and growth factors enhancing the healing process. Because the material acts like epidermis (semi permeable) and allows for transpiration of fluid and gases, the contact surface remains moist, TcP02, so that Epithelialization occurs over the granulating tissue.
