Open Wound Research and Venture Medical Announce Collaboration to Advance Pressure Ulcer Research

Puyallup, WA – March 11, 2025 – Open Wound Research and Venture Medical, LLC have entered into a collaborative research agreement to advance the study of pressure ulcer treatment. As part of this partnership, Venture Medical has acquired extensive pressure ulcer data from Open Wound Research to evaluate the efficacy of CAMPS in comparison to standard of care (SOC) treatments.

Pressure ulcers, also known as pressure injuries or bedsores, remain a significant healthcare challenge, particularly for patients with limited mobility. Many patients suffer from hard-to-heal pressure ulcers that do not respond to extended SOC, requiring advanced treatments or alternative modalities. This research initiative aims to provide valuable insights into how CAMPS products can improve patient outcomes by enhancing wound healing.

“We are excited to collaborate with Venture Medical as their data partner on this important research,” said Zwelithini Tunyiswa, Chief Executive Officer at Open Wound Research. “By leveraging real-world data, we aim to generate clinically relevant findings that can help shape the future management of hard-to-heal pressure ulcers.”

As part of this collaboration, Open Wound Research and Venture Medical will work with leading researchers to assess the efficacy and efficiency of CAMPS products in pressure ulcer treatment. The findings are expected to contribute to evidence-based recommendations for healthcare providers treating pressure ulcer patients.

“This collaboration marks a significant step forward in our commitment to developing and distributing advanced solutions for wound care.” said John Schroeder, Chief Executive Officer at Venture Medical. “By comparing CAMPS product performance to SOC, we seek to provide healthcare professionals with data-driven insights to optimize patient care.”

The results of this research will be shared with the medical community through publications and conferences, ensuring that clinicians and researchers have access to the latest advancements in pressure ulcer treatment.
