Medihoney products are proven to be effective:
• create an antibacterial environment that is effective against a wide range of bacteria, including those organisms that are resistant to antibiotics.
• Quickly and effectively autolytically clean fibrin and necrotic dressings on the wound
• reduce unpleasant odor very quickly
• provide a moist environment for wound healing and allow for atraumatic change in wound dressings.
Medihoney products have been shown to improve wound healing by up to 30% compared to standard dressings and provide faster wound cleansing than some hydrogels.
Medihoney products also consist of Leptospermum honey
How does MEDIHONEY help speed healing?
- It has new antibacterial properties
- It is effective against a wide range of pathogens in the wound, including antibiotic-resistant strains such as e.g. MRSA and VRE
- Effectively cleans wounds with the help of high osmolarity
- It helps lower the pH of the wound
- Regulates the humidity of the environment, which promotes wound healing
- It is non-toxic, of natural origin and safe
- It is easy to use and suitable for multi-day wound care (depending on the amount of secretion)
What is the antibacterial Leptospermum honey?
- It is the most researched type of honey for the care of wounds and burns
- It is honey from pollen and nectar of a special Leptospermum plant species from New Zealand
- It is unique among all types of honey in that it maintains its antibacterial effectiveness even in the presence of fluid from the wound
- It is the only type of honey that has been shown in randomized controlled trials that wounds that have stalled after initial treatments have shown progress in healing.
Antibacterial honey "Medical class"
Brief facts:
1. Controlled in accordance with high standards and systematization. It must ensure consistency in each
production series.
2. Standardized system for determining the level of antibacterial activity.
3. It must be resistant to degradation by wound secretion and maintain efficacy in the wound environment.
4. Sterilized with gamma radiation, which destroys all bacterial spores without losing the effectiveness of the product.5.9
5. It comes from a traceable source and does not contain pesticides or antibiotics.
For honey to work effectively, it must contain a sufficient amount of MGO (Methylglyoxal). Medical studies firmly prove that 500mg of MGO / 1kg of honey provide not only proven antibacterial activity, but also immunostimulatory and anti-inflammatory action. If the honey contains less than 190 mg of MGO / per 1 kg of honey, it does not have a proven antibacterial effect.
MEDIHONEY is the only standardized medical honey that contains just the right amount of MGO needed to achieve antibacterial, immunostimulatory and anti-inflammatory action.
