Mr James Cowden will Chair what promises to be an informative evening sharing insight into a new innovation with Dr Prash Vas and Maureen Bates who share their work on calcium sulfate (STIMULAN®)-based antibiotic carrier for managing complex diabetic foot infections.
Providing examples of previous similar interventions from recent publications, the speakers share their experience, highlighting the patient selection method, management pathway and preliminary patient outcomes. This clinical intervention includes people with diabetes who had non-healing foot ulcers despite receiving best standard of care. The preliminary experience indicates that provision of antibiotic-loaded calcium sulfate (STIMULAN®) is practical in a busy multidisciplinary service and can be feasibly managed in the outpatient facility and can improve outcomes across multiple areas.

STIMULAN® Rapid Cure is intended for use as a bone / soft tissue void filler for voids or gaps that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. The characteristics of STIMULAN® make it suitable as a carrier material for substances such as antibiotics.
