Abstract

Dermbio Biotech Ltda. proposes a disruptive technological solution consisting of a new generation of microstructured dressings, called 3D intelligent membranes, with healing power formed directly on the injury. This membrane is going to serve as the main dressing. Since the cells will absorb it during the epithelialization process, it is bioabsorbable and does not need to be changed while treating the injury. Apart from its therapeutic qualities, it possesses a strong adhesion power that permits unrestricted patient mobility and comfort during application and usage. Furthermore, it permits the application of varying thicknesses, contingent upon the requirements specified by the medical practitioner. (AU)
