AFS Compared to AHC in Treatment of Necrotizing Fasciitis NF
Sponsor: Kerecis Ltd.
Summary
Necrotizing Fasciitis (NF) is a potentially life-threatening soft tissue infection. This study is comparing acellular fish skin graft (AFS) to standard of care allograft (AHC) in the treatment of NF. The purpose of this study is to compare clinical outcomes and time until autograft take in patients that were treated with AHC or AFS prior to permanent autografting to treat NF.

Acellular Fish Skin Graft (AFS) with Standard of Care Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT)
Acellular Fish Skin, used to temporize a wound bed prior to autograft. The intention is to prepare the wound bed for optimal autograft take.
Acellular Human Cadaver (AHC) with Standard of care Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT)
Acellular Human Cadaver , used to temporize a wound bed prior to autograft. The intention is to prepare the wound bed for optimal autograft take.
