A member of East Liverpool City Hospital management and a production team
from EM-Media are flying to Iceland today to learn more about using cod
skin in the treatment of wounds.
Kerecis Omega3 is intact fish skin rich in naturally occurring Omega3 polyunsaturated
fatty acids. When grafted onto damaged human tissue, such as a burn or
a diabetic wound, the material recruits the body’s own cells and
is ultimately converted into living tissue, significantly speeding the
time needed to close an open wound, hospital officials said.
Rick Perez, director of business development at East Liverpool City Hospital;
Jim Emmerling, EM-Media president; and a two-member EM-Media production
crew will spend the week at Kerecis production facility, gathering information
about the unique wound treatment. EM-Media was hired by the hospital to
produce promotional material for the treatment.
