Update: 31st May 2008 Video preview. "Our patient Roy Rice is keen to let you all know that he was not aware of the maggots moving round at all. He was just glad that the biofilm was being removed painlessly and naturally, rather than having to endure more of the painful process of debridement manually with a sharp scraper. Thank you Roy. Today the heavens opened..." This patient, Roy, had several traumatic leg wounds. The skin blistered and became infected. He was a US Army veteran. You can read about it here: http://www.amazingphage.info/p... He has since passed away, peacefully in his sleep. He donated his body to medical science. Grace Filby's Winston Churchill Travelling Fellowship Award blog is at http://www.amazingphage.info - Chronic biofilm infections of wounds can be removed naturally and painlessly - e.g. maggot therapy to enable healing to take place. Location: Southwest Regional Woundcare Center, Lubbock, Texas. Other strategies include phage therapy (using bacteriophages - available in Poland and Georgia for treating antibiotic-resistant infections including MRSA), surgical debridement, ultrasonic debridement, hyperbaric oxygen, lactoferrin, xylitol etc.. Original video footage available. Roy features briefly in a half-hour video available autumn 2008: "Amazing Phage - the Scientists and the Patients". It includes people whose lives were saved with phage medicine, e.g. after MRSA, and are now well again. Music: the artist is 'taboca' and the track is Mach Inspire. It's an audio-swap service provided by YouTube that can be added to videos. Genre: Classical. (Copyright holder: Creative Commons; Policy: Allow; Countries: Everywhere)

we get homeless people in out er all the time with maggots, they eat all of the dead flesh, they probably increase peoples life expectency by keeping their wounds, dead flesh free

He was in his early 60s - I have a note of it somewhere. At the time of the recording he was deciding whether to retire early from the postal service. On the subject of amputation, my research notes with the doctors and patients at the Wound Care Center include: "Although many doctors believe that there is no alternative to amputation, indeed there is. A patient can keep the foot, live longer and still walk on it."

Thanks for keeping an eye on the postings. Roy has gone to a better place now. He wants us to know that maggot therapy is one of the painless ways of treating infected wounds. It's a bit smelly, but he had determination and a good sense of humour. Each treatment room is filtered to prevent the spread of airborne pathogens around the clinic. For new video clips about Roy on this channel, please type in: maggot therapy 3.
