"We are extremely encouraged by the interim data reported in this month's Wound Repair and Regeneration," said Kenton Fong, M.D., chief medical officer, Spiracur Inc. "This study clearly demonstrates the important opportunity our ultraportable, mechanically powered SNaP Wound Care System offers to patients and clinicians for the treatment of chronic wounds. The interim data also highlights there is a need for smaller, more discreet devices that improve patient compliance, enhance quality of life and ultimately, improve treatment outcomes."

Spiracur Inc., headquartered in Sunnyvale, Calif., is a privately held medical device company focused on the development of innovative wound healing technologies. Spiracur was founded out of the Stanford Biodesign Innovation Program in 2007. Its first product, the SNaP Wound Care System, is the result of patient and clinician feedback that current negative pressure wound therapies were too cumbersome. The SNaP Wound Care System was cleared by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) in August 2009 in a new therapy category the FDA has defined as "non-powered" NPWT devices, and the company obtained CE Mark approval for the device in December 2010. The SNaP Wound Care System is indicated for patients who would benefit from a suction device for wound healing and further indicated for removal of small amounts of exudate (fluid) from chronic, acute, traumatic, subacute and dehisced wounds, as well as ulcers (such as diabetic or pressure), and surgically closed incisions. Spiracur strives to develop products that truly focus on patient care. For more information, please visit http://www.spiracur.com
