Oculus Technologies of Mexico introduced Microcyn® during the 2003 gathering of the Mexican Association of General Surgeons.

Diabetic foot ulcers treated with Microcyn® Technology as part of a comprehensive treatment regimen have shown not only elimination of fetid odor, but also important clinical benefits with respect to the reduction of cellulitis and tissue toxicity (cytotoxicity) when compared to patients treated with conventional therapy alone. Patients that in the past might have had to undergo radical procedures such as amputation, are now being healed and their limbs saved.

 

In 300 patient studies conducted in Europe using Microcyn® Technology in a comprehensive treatment program the following results were reported:

  • Patients treated with Microcyn® Technology showed an important clinical benefit with respect to the reduction of fetid odor. All patients showed a reduction in fetid odor compared to the control patients.
  • Microcyn® Technology patients achieved a significant reduction of cellulitis compared to of the control patients.
  • Patients in the Microcyn® Technology intervention group showed improved outcome of the wound (infection to granulation tissue development) compared to the control patients.
  • Microcyn® Technology patients had improved tissue and skin around the wound compared to control patients.
