Congratulations POWCDLS !!! Thank you for recognizing the passion, commitment, and advocacy of in promoting advanced wound care and limb salvage in the Philippines!!!

We at POWCDLS are truly humbled and grateful to receive this Philippine Health Insurance Corporation Advocacy Support Award. This recognition fuels our belief that better wound care means fewer preventable complications and, more importantly, more limbs preserved.

Since 2022, our advocacy has traveled through 15 locations across the Philippines, spanning the country from Ilocos Sur to Davao. Through the FOOTSTEPS Advanced Wound Care Caravan, we work hand in hand with local clinicians to broaden their perspective and strengthen confidence in managing complex wounds, anchored in science, refreshed practice, and shared experience.

The same spirit guided our annual Skintegrity 360° Convention, where prevention meets innovation, and bedside application is the standard, not the exception. This award is a shared victory with the nurses, doctors, community care teams, institutions, and industry partners who stop, listen, and take steps with us in every city we visit.

To the communities and patients who inspire us, thank you for teaching us urgency and purpose.

To PhilHealth, thank you for recognizing that advocacy is most impactful when paired with education and real change on the ground. This award assures us that the work of empowering clinicians and promoting limb preservation goes beyond conference halls and into the communities we serve.

We are sincerely grateful for the trust and recognition of our work to bring advanced wound care awareness to clinicians nationwide. This honor strengthens our commitment to continue reaching more hospitals, training more frontliners, and championing healing over amputation, FOOTSTEP by FOOTSTEP, across the nation.

Thank you for seeing our mission, and for walking with us toward better care for every patient.

Mabuhay ang POWCDLS!

THE FIRST ADVANCED WOUND CARE CARAVAN IN SULTAN KUDARAT HELD LAST JANUARY 24,2026 AT ST. LOUIS HOSPITAL.

Last January 24, we proudly partnered with Philippine Orthopedic Wound Care & Diabetic Limb Society (POWCDLS) in the last leg of FOOTSTEPS Wound Care Caravan—Focused Outreach On Training and Service Towards Elevating Practice in Specialized Wound Care. This nationwide initiative continues to fulfill its mission of combining education, clinical service, and skills enhancement to uplift wound care practices across the Philippines, with a special focus on diabetic limb and orthopedic-related wounds.



The caravan brought together more than 130 healthcare professionals all eager to deepen their understanding of advanced wound care and limb preservation. The morning session focused on comprehensive lectures highlighting key clinical topics, highlighting a wide range of L&R Suprasorb advanced dressings and compression products.



In the afternoon, participants engaged in hands-on workshops, allowing for a deeper dive into the practical application of theories and detailed product demonstrations. These were divided into three core components: Debridement, Modern Wound Care Dressing, and Negative Pressure Wound Therapy—all showcasing the complete L&R wound care portfolio.



Beyond demonstrations, the program included three actual Diabetic Foot Ulcer patients, where products such as Suprasorb LiquaCel Ag, Debrisoft Pad, Mollelast Haft, and Rosidal TCS were utilized in real clinical settings.



As the caravan continues its journey across regions, it leaves behind more than shared knowledge, it leaves lasting FOOTSTEPS in the advancement of wound care excellence and limb salvage practices throughout the Philippines.

Smoking and Bone Health:

High blood cotinine levels (indicating ni****ne intake) are associated with a higher prevalence of osteoporosis.
Current smokers are more susceptible to osteoporosis compared to non-smokers.
Smoking disrupts bone remodeling, leading to weaker and more brittle bones, increasing fracture risk.
Healing fractures takes longer in smokers compared to non-smokers.
Ni****ne disrupts bone regeneration, accelerating bone mass loss.
