How does Vashe Wound Care Solutions Work?

• Many wound cleansers historically have had characteristics that limit their desirability for use in wound care
• Cytotoxicity to the cells necessary for optimal healing must be minimized
• Stability of compounds affect the time a cleanser can be effective on a wound
• Extremes of pH can make the cleanser range from uncomfortable to painful
• Steadmed Vashe Wound Cleansing Solution has addressed each of these drawbacks and serves as an ideal wound cleanser
• It is intended for cleaning, irrigating, moistening, debriding and removal of foreign material including microorganisms from acute and chronic dermal lesions, such as stage I-IV pressure ulcers, stasis ulcers, diabetic ulcers, post-surgical wounds, first and second-degree burns, abrasions and minor irritations of the skin in addition to moistening and lubricating absorbent wound dressings
• Safe, non-cytotoxic, and contains the highest concentration of pure hypochlorous acid
• It is the most natural of wound cleansers since hypochlorous acid is nature’s way of dealing with pathogens in the human inflammatory system

Know the importance of pH

Lowering the pH into a range of 4-6 results in HOCl as the dominant species and a pH similar to intact human skin. As a result, the activity increases by a factor of 80-100 times that observed in higher-pH solutions such as Dakin’s, while the lower pH apparently eliminates cytotoxicity and confers sporicidal activity.
