Case Studies
Completed on real patients using the MendER™ Antimicrobial Wound Gel
Case Study - Face Wound
39 Year old male presents with facial trauma from an ice hockey injury - hockey puck to the face, requiring 17 total stitches between internal and external stitches.
Patient applied the MendER™ Antimicrobial Wound Gel topically to the area 1-2 times daily. The wound healed within about 1 week.
Case Study - Sunburn
26 year old female presents with painful red sunburn after not using sunscreen. Subject applied the MendER™ Antimicrobial Wound Gel liberally, three times daily, for three consecutive days. Subject reported a significant reduction in pain and discomfort. Results are two days later.
Case Study - Hand Wound
A 65 year old male patient was holding up a fence post while another man attempted to pound it into the ground with a 10 pound sledge hammer. The man missed the post and hit the patient’s hand with the hammer instead. The patient applied the MendER™ Antimicrobial Wound Gel to the area multiple times daily, from day one, until it was healed. No other treatments were used besides this gel. The patient’s hand had completely healed within 3 months, with no infection, despite the age of the patient, and the depth and severity of the wound.
Case Study - Face Burn
47 year old male, who is a medical practitioner, presents with significant deep partial thickness (2nd degree) burns to the hands, face, and neck from a gasoline fire. Upon evaluation at the Burn Center, the patient was told he would "likely never look the same again." Patient applied the MendER™ Antimicrobial Wound Gel topically 3-5 times daily to the affected areas. The MendER™ Gel was the exclusive treatment for days 1-3 on his face. On days 4-6, he used the MendER™ Gel combined with other therapies while in the burn center, and days 7-14 he used primarily the MendER™ Gel. At a later follow-up with his burn doctors, the patient was told he would "likely not have any scarring at all."
Case Study - Sunburn
Male patient presents with painful red sunburn and blisters after not using sunscreen. Subject applied the MendER™ Antimicrobial Wound Gel every day, and reported an immediate reduction in pain. Patient reported the burn was healed within just 3 days.
Case Study - MRSA Infection & Wound
A 35 year old male presents with a severe MRSA infection in his left lower leg after scraping his ankle while playing outside with his children. The patient is a type 1 diabetic with a recent high A1C laboratory test, and a history of difficulty healing. After trying other methods that failed, the patient was referred to a clinic that recommended the MendER™ Antimicrobial Wound Gel. In combination with other therapies, the patient applied the MendER™ Gel topically to the primary ankle wound once per day. This combination of therapies had positive results and zero negative interactions between the different therapies. The patient returned for his follow up appointment five days later with the infection completely gone and was quoted saying, “I have never healed from something so quickly.”
Case Study - Sunburn
71 year old male presents with large partial thickness (2nd degree) sunburns obtained while kayaking for an extended period of time with his legs exposed to the sun. The patient didn’t begin using the MendER™ Antimicrobial Wound Gel until the third day after the burns occurred (Application Day 1), and shortly after that, also began using the Naked Bandage® to protect the open wounds further. Just one week after the patient started using the MendER™ Gel, the open wounds had all closed, the redness and swelling had mostly dissipated, most of the scabs had also disappeared, and the patient continued to improve.
Case Study - Shingles
92 year old female presents with shingles on her left arm. On day 1, the arm showed extensive redness and inflammation with numerous scattered lesions, and pronounced skin irritation. The patient topically applied the MendER™ Antimicrobial Wound Gel first, and after it absorbed, then applied the SilverCeuticals® Eczema Therapy & Skin Relief Cream, applying both in that pattern several times daily. By day 5 following use of the products, the arm showed substantial visible improvement. The redness and inflammation were markedly reduced, the previously prominent lesions and crusted areas had largely resolved, and the skin appeared considerably calmer and closer to its normal appearance. The patient's family was "blown away by the results."
Case Study - Hand Burn
A 5-year-old male fell into a campfire, severely burning his hand. The patient visited a rural hospital ER. The blisters were lanced, but no debridement was performed, and the patient was sent home. After a few days, the wounds were painful and infected. The patient was then taken to a different provider near his home. This provider found that the patient had deep-partial-thickness (severe 2nd degree) burns, extending to almost full thickness (3rd degree) on two of the digits. The blisters were filled with purulent, foul-smelling liquid, indicative of infection. The wounds were properly cleaned and debrided, and the MendER™ Antimicrobial Wound Gel was applied to all the wounds. The parents were instructed to change the bandage and reapply the MendER™ Gel once daily. By two days later, significant healing and reduction of inflammation were very evident. Due to the child's active nature, bandages were changed 1-3 times daily, with the MendER™ gel being reapplied each time. For treatment of this wound, only the MendER™ Gel and a hyperbaric oxygen chamber were used. No additional signs of infection occurred. Despite the severity of the initial injury and initial infection, healing was nearly complete in just thirty days.
Case Study - Dog Bites
A duck was attacked by a dog, while stuck with its wings outstretched. In addition to the missing feathers, there were many wounds all over the skin. The duck was washed with water, and then they applied the MendER™ Antimicrobial Wound Gel. No infection occurred at any time. The skin healed well and quickly, and the feathers returned in less than 2 weeks.
Case Study - Surgical Wound
A 66 year old male patient had surgery to remove skin cancer from his nose. The patient applied the MendER™ Antimicrobial Wound Gel topically to the area every day. The wound was mostly healed in 2.5 weeks, and completely healed in about 30 days.
