Why Robust Wound Healing Matters for Prosthetic Users: The Role of Continuous Topical Oxygen Therapy

Author: Windy Cole, DPM

For patients with limb loss, wound closure is only the first step toward recovery. As highlighted in this case study, reintroducing a prosthetic limb can be a painful and risky process if the newly healed skin is fragile.

That’s why robust healing is essential. NATROX® O₂ delivers Continuous Topical Oxygen Therapy (cTOT) directly to the wound site, promoting stronger tissue regeneration and skin integrity. This reduces the risk of re-ulceration and helps patients regain mobility with confidence.

Whether you’re a wound care specialist, prosthetist, or rehabilitation clinician, ensuring long-term healing outcomes is critical to preventing setbacks. Learn how NATROX® O₂ is helping clinicians support safer, stronger recoveries.
