This winning collaboration is between Blackwood Company Frontier Therapeutics and the Cardiff University Wound Healing Research Unit (WHRU).
Originally a University Hospital of Wales concept, ‘Repose’, a revolutionary system for the prevention and management of pressure ulcers was evaluated by WHRU and developed by the partners for production and marketing by Frontier Therapeutics. This innovative partnership involving the NHS, Frontier and the University has enabled the Company to establish a new market area in wound care and significantly enhance patient healing.
Nigel Harris, Managing Director of Frontier Therapeutics said: “Working with the University and the NHS has been crucial to the development and long-term future of our product. Together, we have created a simple solution to a huge problem which is difficult to solve, saving treatment costs and a great deal of pain suffered by patients.”
