Cytomedix, Inc. Booth 911

     Cytomedix develops biologically active regenerative therapies for wound care, angiogenesis, and inflammation. We harness the complex balance of essential life processes to mirror the body’s therapeutic efficiency. Chronic, nonhealing wounds often are stuck in the inflammatory stage of wound repair. Lack of perfusion or pressure prevents blood-delivered proteins from reaching the wound bed. Some wounds remain unhealed for years. The AutoloGel™ System re-establishes the natural balance needed to move out of the inflammatory phase, restoring the natural healing process.
