"I am overjoyed because thanks to the treatment with the CPT®patch I got back my lost quality of life."
"By offering CPTpatch therapy, we have established ourselves as an innovative treatment center and significantly increased the number of patients."
The risk of developing a chronic wound increases with age and is 4 to 5 % after the age of 80. Different figures are available for the number of people affected by a chronic wound in Germany. Estimates range up to 4 million affected by the three most common conditions alone - decubitus ulcer, venous leg ulcer and diabetic foot ulcer.
It is assumed that the number of people affected by chronic wounds will continue to increase massively in the future. In addition to the increase in life expectancy, rising numbers of cases of obesity and diabetes are also considered to be favorable factors.
The numbers of wound infections, chronic wounds and multi-resistant bacteria have been increasing for years. However, it is assumed that 2 to 3 % of the adult population of all western industrialized nations has a chronic wound.
For successful wound treatment, it is important to consider not only the wound but also the entire health situation, from secondary diseases to the patient's living situation. This is only possible with a multiprofessional approach that considers the medical side as well as the nursing and social components, with the goal of closing the wound.
If a wound does not heal, there is a reason for it. Often there is a vascular circulatory disorder behind it - for example, diabetic foot syndrome - which leads to an undersupply of oxygen and nutrients to the wound area.
Impaired cardiac or renal performance or autoimmune and skin diseases can also interfere with wound healing. The first step is to diagnose and treat the underlying disease.
Other common forms of chronic wounds are venous leg ulcers or bedsores, the so-called decubitus. What they have in common is that blood circulation in the wound area is disturbed and must be restored as the first goal of treatment.
Parallel to the so important treatment of the underlying disease, the wound is specifically treated. "Wound treatment usually begins with cleaning the wound. For this, the medical colleagues use various procedures," explains Felix Grassoff from the MeckCura nursing service. "For example, a wound can be cleaned surgically, biomechanically or ultrasound-guided. The procedures can also be linked together."
Another important aspect is dressing technique and dressing material, which decisively support wound healing. In fact, the care of chronic wounds differs greatly in this respect from the treatment of a simple, complication-free acute wound, such as a superficial cut.
Another important part of wound care is the photographic documentation of the wound development, so that we and the affected person can understand exactly what the process is like. At the beginning, patients are called in closely for wound checks and dressing changes. "Our job is to counsel patients and give them care tips and advice on how to manage the condition. It is important for the wound healing process that the patients participate. The therapy concept must be continuously adapted to the wound situation and the patient's overall health situation."
A wound that has not healed after 8 weeks is called "chronic".
Irrespective of this temporally oriented definition, there are wounds that are to be regarded as chronic from the outset, since their treatment requires therapy of the continuing cause. These include, for example, diabetic foot syndrome (DFS), wounds caused by peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAVD), chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) and pressure ulcers.
Every chronic wound healing disorder has a cause. This must be clarified at the start of local treatment by the responsible physician and/or via a vascular surgery wound consultation.
Mixed images of different causes are common. In order to recognize them, all possibilities of potential wound formation should be queried.
Cold plasma treatment is an innovative and effective procedure for chronic wounds. It promotes the wound healing process and can bring about wound closure of protracted chronic wounds.
At first, it was just a small wound on her ankle. Nothing that Ruth Wollgast had given much thought to. The 77-year-old from Hamburg is also not surprised that the healing process is a bit slow: she has diabetes and is familiar with such side effects.
But this time everything is different - the condition of the wound worsens, it eventually becomes chronic.
This is the beginning of several years of suffering that almost 3 million Germans with chronic wounds share with Ruth Wollgast. It is characterized by great restrictions in daily life, countless treatments with ointments, tablets, wound dressings and, in the case of the Hamburg woman, even a skin transplant.
But all to no avail: "I'm actually a very positive person, but the wound was a real pain in the neck. When you're still in pain after three years and really limited, you can really despair," says the sprightly retiree looking back.
It is her diabetologist who finally tells her about the new form of treatment with cold plasma. Demoralized by the many setbacks, she remains skeptical, but agrees to therapy. She recalls that she was quite uneasy before her first appointment. She was all the more surprised to find that treatment with the CPT®patch really is short and painless. And above all: it works!
Twice a week, the plasma patch is applied to the patient's wound, which is around eight centimeters in size, and the cold plasma is generated directly over the open area. Multi-resistant bacteria are killed in just 120 seconds and cell regeneration is promoted. After only six weeks, Ruth Wollgast's wound is closed: "I am so very grateful to my practitioner that he recommended the therapy to me and also persuaded me a little. Now I can live freely again, have no more pain and am just happy."
Driven by our passion for giving sufferers a new lease on life, we invented and patented a new, effective way of treating wounds. Our specialists developed CPT®patch, an active wound dressing that effectively treats wounds.
We are the first company in the world to use patented Active Glow® technology, which enables breakthrough application that even combats multidrug resistance - on a large scale, quickly and safely.
Therapy with the CPT®patch is performed in our nationwide CPT®Pasma.Competence.Centers. The treatment lasts two minutes and should be performed twice a week.
Very good results are possible after just a few treatments and we achieve lasting wound closure and thus healing in 70% of wounds that cannot be treated.

Infections with bacteria are treated systemically with antibiotics. However, some bacteria have become resistant to many different antibiotics. These are known as multi-resistant pathogens. The usual drugs are then ineffective. People with weakened immune systems or open wounds with poor blood supply are at risk. If they develop an infection, treatment is more difficult because only a few antibiotics are still effective. The healing process of a wound is delayed if it is infected. Often such a disorder occurs in weakened immune system and after surgical procedures. In these cases, special wound treatment must be initiated, otherwise the most serious complications may arise.
CPT's cold plasma treatment allows infected tissues to be treated and decontaminated quickly and efficiently. A treatment with our active wound dressing CPTpatch takes only 2 minutes. A reduction in germ load of up to 99.999999% (Log8 reduction) regardless of germ type and resistance class is achieved after just one treatment - regardless of the localization on the body, previous therapy resistance or original germ load.
"My wound became painful, reddened and I feared the worst. My doctor got everything back under control thanks to treatment with the CPT®patch. I'm really grateful for that."
"I have been working with cold plasma technology in wound care for years.At first, I was very skeptical about the product. However, the effectiveness impressed me. Especially in the case of postoperative wound healing disorders after split-skin transplants, positive changes were already evident after the first application. The acceleration of granulation is also clearly evident in larger and deeper defects. Cold plasma treatment has now become a part of my daily work."
Skin grafts are used for wound closure in chronic wounds, burns or similar injuries and replace dead or no longer functional parts. The skin required for this is taken as donor skin directly from the patient in a very thin layer. The donor areas heal on their own in 10 to 14 days, similar to an abrasion.
Due to the often insufficient blood supply to the affected areas, ingrowth can be difficult. Infections of the wound environment in particular prevent the graft tissue from growing. CPT's cold plasma treatment allows tissues to be treated and decontaminated quickly and efficiently. Treatment with our active wound dressing CPTpatch takes only 2 minutes and is very painless. A reduction in germ load of up to 99.999999% (Log8 reduction) regardless of germ type and resistance class is achieved after just one treatment - regardless of the localization on the body, previous therapy resistance or original germ load. The mode of action of the cold plasma enables a sustainable supply of the damaged tissue and improves the conditions of healing of the wound or the split skin. The mode of action of the cold plasma enables a sustainable supply of the tissue and has also after transplantation, the cold plasma application can improve the ingrowth behavior.
Burns are caused by heat, chemical or physical impact on tissue. The degree of burn and the proportion of the body surface damaged are decisive for the severity of the injury. Depending on which layers of the skin are affected, there are different degrees of burns. From second-degree burns, the priority is to protect the wound from infection and to create good healing conditions. Skin transplants in the form of split skin or flap plastics are used to close the wound and replace the dead parts. The skin required for this is taken as donor skin directly from the patient in a very thin layer.
Infections are the cause of well over half of all deaths resulting from burns. It can be assumed that after about a week, every burn wound is infected. Microorganisms find ideal conditions on the wound. The natural skin barrier is destroyed, the patient's general resistance is significantly reduced and blood circulation is minimized. The lack of blood flow also prevents any defense cells present in the blood from being transported to the wound.
CPT's cold plasma treatment can treat and decontaminate infected tissues quickly and efficiently. Treatment with our active wound dressing CPTpatch takes only 2 minutes and is absolutely painless. A reduction of the germ load by up to 99.999999% (Log8-reduction) independent of germ type and resistance class is achieved after only one treatment - independent of the localization on the body, the previous therapy resistance or original germ load. The mode of action of the cold plasma enables sustained care of the damaged tissue and improves the conditions of wound healing or split-skin application.
A pressure sore is a chronic wound that is caused by prolonged pressure on the skin tissue. Prolonged lying or sitting when bedridden leads to insufficient blood supply to the skin in the contact areas. This leads to undersupply of the skin tissue, which is then damaged, opens up and becomes chronic.
CPT cold plasma treatment can be used to treat sore areas (decubiti) quickly and efficiently. Treatment with our active wound dressing CPT®patch takes only 2 minutes and is painless. Initial results can be seen after just a few days of treatment - regardless of the location on the body, previous resistance to therapy or bacterial load. The mode of action of the cold plasma enables sustained care of the damaged tissue and, with simultaneous pressure relief and professional care, usually lead to sustained healing of the wound.
"My wound just wouldn't heal. We tried everything and now: honestly for me the treatment is still like a miracle and that completely painless."
A wound is a severance of coherent tissue on the outer or inner surface of the body. If a wound does not heal or heals poorly, it is referred to as a wound healing disorder. It is characterized, among other things, by bruising, accumulation of wound secretions under a wound, wound tears and, above all, infections.
In wound healing disorders, the healing process of a wound is delayed and it can become infected. Such a disorder often occurs in the case of a weakened immune system and after surgical interventions. In these cases, special wound treatment must be initiated, otherwise there is a risk of the most serious complications.
Treatment with the CPT®patch promotes wound healing and stimulates the wound for improved and faster healing. Very good results can be achieved after just a few days of treatment with the CPT®patch and wound closure can be achieved sustainably.
"After the third treatment with the CPTpatch you could see - the wound is starting to heal really great. I can't see the cold plasma, but it smells like fresh air and the treatment is the first one that really helps me!"
"Oh man, am I happy that my attending physician heard about this great therapy and prescribed it for me. My years of suffering came to an end - now things are looking up and my quality of life is coming back."
If a wound does not heal over a period of more than 8 weeks, it is called chronic. Poor wound healing is often the result of a circulatory disorder, diabetes mellitus or an immune defect. A common chronic wound is the lower leg ulcer (Ulcus cruris).
Even an acute wound that is not cared for properly can become chronic. Patients are often considerably restricted in their everyday lives by their chronic wounds. If the cause is not remedied, the chances of healing are poor.
CPT's cold plasma treatment can be used to treat a wide range of chronic wounds quickly and efficiently.

2 minutes and is painless. Initial results can be seen after just a few days of treatment - regardless of the localization on the body, previous resistance to therapy or bacterial load. The mode of action of the cold plasma enables sustained care of the damaged tissue and, with simultaneous professional care, usually leads to sustained healing of the wound.
A leg ulcer is an open, usually weeping ulcer on the lower leg that does not heal over a long period of time. It is also colloquially referred to as "open leg". The lower leg ulcer is a symptom of another underlying disease. The most common causes are circulatory disorders of the blood in the skin and subcutaneous tissue of the leg.
A treatment with our active wound dressing CPT®patch takes only 2 minutes. First results can be visible after only a few treatment days - regardless of the localization at ankle level up to the thigh. Even the difficult-to-treat "Bisgaard's backdrop" is eminently treatable.
We are currently conducting a study of the indications with the support of the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research. Renowned hospitals such as the Charité Berlin, the University Hospital Hamburg Eppendorf and many other hospitals in Germany are our study partners here.
"I had already stopped believing that my leg, which had been open for years, would be healed. Through the treatment with the CPT®patch, I have not only gained new courage to face life, but also a perspective of being able to be active again."
Diabetic foot often occurs as a complication of diabetes mellitus. Due to the high blood sugar, blood vessels and nerve tracts are partially damaged. This causes wounds on the foot in particular, which can become infected and difficult to heal. Treatment can be lengthy and, in the worst case, there is a risk of complete amputation of toes, foot or the entire leg.
CPT cold plasma treatment is a quick and efficient way to treat diabetic foot. A treatment with our active wound dressing CPT®patch takes only 2 minutes - regardless of the localization on the ball or heel. Initial results can be seen after just a few days of treatment.
"I had already stopped believing that my leg, which had been open for years, would be healed. Through the treatment with the CPT®patch, I have not only gained new courage to face life, but also a perspective of being able to be active again."
Our goal: sustainable wound closure instead of wounds only treat wounds.
First results possible after only a few days of treatment.
Based on over six years of applied research.
Treatment with cold plasma clinically confirmed. Application of the CPT®patch simple.
Active Glow" technology is effective, efficient and safe.
It generates a physical plasma that is no hotter than body temperature. Thus, it is very suitable for germ elimination from microbially contaminated skin and wounds.
The simultaneous deep stimulation of the skin or wound surface increases microcirculation.
The wound is better supplied with oxygen and nutrients - and heals faster and better.
