Profile: Progressive Surgical Products specializes in offering Proxiderm™ wound care device that stretches and expands nearby skin to quickly cover the wound with local site full thickness skin & fills in the wound cavity with subcutaneous tissue. It is a wound closure system that quickly closes many types of chronic foot ulcers, pressure sores, and traumatic wounds with skin & cosmetic appearance. Proxiderm procedure and device offers the physician a means for closing chronic wounds in days or a few weeks. The Proxiderm device consists of a pair of tissue hooks that are inserted into healthy skin near the opposing wound margins. The Proxiderm device automatically applies a constant sustained, low grade force to the edges of the wound, encouraging the wound edges to come together and slowly stretches nearby healthy skin to maximally cover the wound with full thickness skin & fills the wound cavity with sub cutaneous tissue. The Proxiderms are typically left on the patient for periods of 2 to 3 days at a time. During that time the wound edges slowly approach each other. Larger wounds require multiple applications of the Proxiderms until the wound can be closed. Most wounds can be closed within 6 weeks. Smaller wounds can be closed in a few days. The Proxiderm family of devices for wound care consists of four models that are appropriately curved for different body contours. When the tissue hooks of the Proxiderm devices are extended and inserted into healthy skin near the margins of the wound, the Proxiderm device automatically applies a constant sustained force of 460 grams to the margins of the wounds.
