FDA Asks for Comment Following Chronic Wounds Workshop

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently held a 2-day scientific wound healing workshop to discuss nonhealing chronic wounds. The recordings of the workshop are available to view here:

Day 1 recording

Day 2 recording

FDA is very interested in hearing from all stakeholders (patients, caregivers, healthcare providers, translational researchers, Industry, etc.), not just those who were able to attend the workshop, on experiences with nonhealing chronic wounds. Hearing directly from stakeholders helps FDA’s regulatory decision making and ultimately enhances the Agency’s mission to protect and promote the public health of Americans.
