May 16, 2023 – SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technologies announced its DermaGold®, an advanced wound care technology, has received an Innovative Technology contract from Vizient, Inc., the nation’s largest member-driven healthcare performance improvement company. The contract was awarded based on the recommendation of SoftWave’s DermaGold® by hospital experts who serve on one of Vizient’s member-led councils, and it signifies to Vizient members unique qualities that potentially bring improvement to the healthcare industry.
SoftWave’s DermaGold® is a patented low-intensity electrohydraulic shockwave technology (Li-ESWT) for advanced wound care. Its unique applicator produces a true shockwave and a biological response that accelerates angiogenesis and revascularization, promoting faster wound healing. This non-invasive, 10-minute treatment is done once a week over six to eight weeks and can be used alone or in combination with other advanced wound care.
“We are excited for Vizient members to have increased access through this contract to SoftWave DermaGold® technology as it has been demonstrated to be a wound care treatment that is just as effective as other commonly used more expensive modalities, and it has the additional benefit of being more convenient for the patient,” says Chris Holt, SoftWave CEO. “SoftWave DermaGold® has the power to positively impact the lives of those living with chronic wounds while increasing physician productivity and decreasing clinic costs.”
