Why Cinesteam® ?

« Of all wound symptoms, odour is cited by patients and carers as the most distressing, causing social isolation, depression and revulsion » (Gethin, 2014). 

Isabelle Fromantin, nurse and researcher, in charge of the wound healing unit at the Institut Curie, Paris, explains the story of the Cinesteam® dressing.
