Authors

The Triticum Vulgare Extract (TVE) is a particular wheat extract patented by Farmaceutici Damor. TVE (Rigenase®) has been shown to have an important bio stimulation effect promoting the tissue repairing process in vitro. In this context, an observational study was developed to access the effects of a gauze based on Rigenase® and polyhexanide in the treatment of venous ulcers (area <6 cm2 and not beyond the dermal layer) and of damaged perilesional skin whose damage could have also been determined by iatrogenic cause. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were identified and a medication protocol was applied. The study showed that the product based on Rigenase® and polyhexanide is effective in the treatment of venous ulcers and damaged perilesional skin.
