Description
A GROWING PROBLEM
Diabetes is increasingly a problem worldwide. With the number of diabetics estimated to hit 135 million US adults by 2020, relating to an increase to $3.35 trillion spent on their care, more novel approaches to diabetic care are needed. Patients with diabetes are particularly susceptible to foot infection as they often lose the protective sensations for temperature and pain, which decreases awareness of trauma and foreign body penetration. Once the skin is cracked, the underlying tissue is exposed to pathogenic organism infection, leading to a more severe and more profound infection. Every 30 seconds, a lower limb is lost due to complications of diabetes

Enhanced Wound Healing
The presence of copper in a wound dressing was proven to enhance wound closure and to increase blood vessel formation (compared with a commercial wound dressing containing silver and a standard dressing ).
Diabetic Foot Fungal infections
Diabetic patients are at a high risk for developing fungal infections. Eculage® diabetic sock, based on Cupron’s technology, outperformed in its anti fungal activity against a range of commercially available silver technologies (see graph).
