It is estimated that 6.7 million people currently live with chronic
wounds and that number is expected to grow at more than two
percent for the next decade. The increase is fueled by an aging
population and increasing rates of diseases and conditions such
as diabetes, obesity and the late effects of radiation therapy.
Untreated chronic wounds can lead to diminished quality of life
and possibly amputation of the affected limb.
