A SOLUTION FOR DEEP STERNAL WOUND INFECTION AND MEDIASTINITIS

Deep sternal wound infections (DSWI) are one of the most feared complications after open heart surgery. We have tested our product in clinical trials with over 12,000 patients.

Below is one example of how effective the Posthorax vest is at preventing DSWI

1. Here we show the mean hospital stay after open heart surgery compared to the hospital stay when DSWI occurs.

As you can see the group with our vest had a very significant reduction in DSWI!
