You've not heard about the start-up terraplasma medical? And not about cold plasma and its positive effect on multi-resistant bacteria in chronic and acute wounds? Learn about our business idea and how we want to improve patients' quality of life and optimize medical professionals' wound care process!

1. terraplasma medical develops a medical device,
the plasma care, for the treatment of chronic and acute wounds.
We fight multi resistant bacteria with cold plasma to improve
patients’ quality of life and to optimize the medical professionals’
wound care process.
…imagine you’ve got a wound and it’s not getting smaller but bigger
and is contaminated with multi resistant bacteria. The wound healing is
effected negatively and is very painful.

2. …it all started with fundamental space research at the Max-Planck institute.
There, a technology was developed to generate cold plasma that can be used at body temperature in the medicine.
Multi resistant bacteria is one of the biggest problems in wound healing which can be fought with cold plasma.
Out of the responsibility for the society, terraplasma medical was founded in March 2016 to take care of that problem!

6. Chronic Wounds
The use of antiseptics and antibiotics is questionable!
Application time
of antiseptics is up to 40 min.
Antibiotics need to be
applied until the next wound
dressing change.
Treatment time of plasma care
is approx. 60 sec.

Clinical Study

9. Painless - The treatment with plasma itself is painless and well-tolerated
by patients.
Clinical proven – The benefits of the cold plasma have been proved in
a multi centric study with 379 patients.
Effective – By using cold atmospheric plasma, multi resistant bacteria
located in the wound are effectively inactivated.
Fast & Mobile - The daily plasma treatment takes approximately 60s.
The plasma care is battery operated and easy in its handling.
Safe – There are no indications for side effects and allergic reactions.
