In this episode of Microbiome Medics Podcast, I (Dr. Sheena Fraser) speak with Dr. Holly Wilkinson, a microbiome scientist at Hull York Medical School, about the vital role of the skin microbiome in health and disease. We discuss how the skin microbiome's unique characteristics, influenced by factors like body location and hygiene, are crucial for maintaining skin health. Dr. Wilkinson explains the relationship between the skin barrier and microbiota and the implications for conditions like acne and eczema.We also explore natural skincare options, the research on probiotics for wound healing, and her current studies on chronic wounds, emphasising microbiome composition as a predictor for healing outcomes. This engaging conversation underscores the importance of a holistic approach to skincare and the need for more awareness of microbiome science in clinical practice.This podcast is brought to you in collaboration with the British Society of Lifestyle Medicine.Disclaimer:The content in this podcast is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

What can be done to improve clinical trials for patients with chronic wounds? In this new episode of the Scope of Things, host Deborah Borfitz speaks with Dr. Caroline Fife, world-renowned wound care physician and Chief Medical Officer at Intellicure, about the clinical realities of chronic wounds and wound treatment. Dr. Fife shares her thoughts on the “sorry state” of clinical trials for wound care products and what she has learned as the Executive Director of the U.S. Wound Registry that shed some light on the matter. She also discusses how her first clinical trial sparked her drive to improve conditions and the barriers that prevent innovation in the development of new products and technology.

Using Advanced Enzyme to Clean Chronic Wounds and Stem Cell Treatments to Create New Skin with Priyanka Dutta-Passecker Healiva

Priyanka Dutta-Passecker is the CEO and Founder of Healiva, a Swiss start-up focused on innovative treatments for acute and chronic wounds. Healiva begins the process by cleaning the wound using an enzyme invented by Priyanka. Depending on the severity of the wound, autologous or allogeneic cell therapy is used to make new skin to heal the wound. Priyanka explains, "So, to give a background for when we talk about personalized cell therapies and autologous cell therapy. We take a patient here, and from the patient, we make the patient's skin. That means that we're completely personalizing and making the skin of the patient. And this is given to extremely chronic non-healing wound patients like venous leg ulcer patients or diabetic foot ulcer patients. The skin gets integrated on their ulcer and closes the ulcer. That's one of our autologous cell therapy products called Epidex." "We do keep the primary cells when we take the hair follicle. As you may know, hair follicles are epithelial cells that we expand, and we keep the cells. And when they come back, we can make the full skin, the epidermis differentiation, within two weeks. But generally, it takes four weeks. And it's given to the patient once it's ready within four to five days." "So, just to elaborate on what we mean by allogeneic cell therapy. So quite different from the autologous one, in allogenic cell therapy, we are taking healthy skin cells from you and me. We expand the skin cells, and we give the skin cells to the patient. What happens is that it releases growth factors which help in the healing. And there is no rejection because, of course, the cells do not stay on the wounds of the patient." #Healiva #WoundCare #PatientCare #SwissStartups #CellTherapy #ChronicWounds #RegenerativeMedicine #Diabetes #Healthtech healiva.com Download the transcript here

Silicone-based wound dressings made with SILPURAN® from WACKER SILICONES are a much gentler alternative for treating chronic wounds, especially in older people. Thanks to their unique properties, these bandages prevent the dressing from sticking to the wound, allowing them to be removed with significantly less pain. Plus, they also ensure ideal conditions for healing wounds.

Treating Chronic Wounds and Diabetic Foot Ulcers

In this episode of The PODdoctors podcast, Dr. Damien Dauphinee, a board-certified foot and ankle surgeon, and Dr. Raafae Hussain, fellowship trained foot and ankle surgeon, talk about the common chronic wounds or ulcers they see every day, particularly diabetic foot ulcers, and how to treat them.“Probably the most common that we'll see is your neuropathic, aka your diabetic, foot ulcer. This is when you have uncontrolled diabetes, you have that neuropathy, you have that poor healing potential, and they end up walking until they get a sore, typically on the bottom of their foot, on a high-pressure spot. These are things we're able to take care of if we stay ahead of it.” - Dr. Raafae Hussain [04:51]“It's probably more important to get rid of the dead tissue, the broken-down collagen in the wound bed, than it is to use a silver dressing to prevent infection.” - Dr. Damien Dauphinee [18:23]“Every day a wound is open, especially in diabetic patients, is another chance for that to get infected. So, we really need to use whatever advanced therapy that we can get ahold of to get that wound closed rapidly because the expenses in these wounds are not in the stuff we're using to treat them. The expensive stuff is the amputation, the six weeks of antibiotics, the 3-4 trips to the hospital.” - Dr. Damien Dauphinee [22:40]Top Takeaways:4 major types of chronic wounds Methods of treating and dressing diabetic foot ulcersSantyl vs. Silver dressings: Which is better?How to offload diabetic foot ulcers to facilitate healingCan you reverse neuropathy in diabetic patients?Treating vascular and venous issues in patients with foot ulcersKey methods and biologics used in treating chronic woundsWhat You Will Learn:[00:39] Intro[02:07] Common wounds we see on a daily basis & Their causes[07:56] Diagnosing and treating ulcers on the feet[15:19] Dressing foot ulcers after the first treatment[23:33] Offloading diabetic foot ulcers[26:47] Important data & statistics on diabetic foot ulcers[28:46] Why podiatrists work with vascular specialists[36:04] Using hyperbaric oxygen therapy and NPWT to heal wounds[46:33] Biologics used for treating wounds[52:19] Important takeaways on chronic wounds in diabetic patients[57:23] Breaking down a few of Dr. Dauphinee's past chronic wound casesResources:Visit our website: https://thepoddoctors.comBook Mentioned: Saving Limbs, Saving Lives: Advanced Treatments for Preventing Amputations in Diabetic Populations by Dr. Damien DauphineeLearn more about the Wise Healing Center in Argyle, TX: https://www.wisehealthsystem.com/location/wise-healing-center-argyle
