FORT WORTH, TX--(Marketwire - February 19, 2009) - Wound Management Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: WNDM) announced today that OTC Financial Network (OTCFN), a division of National Financial Communications Corp., has issued a corporate profile on the Company. Wholly owned subsidiary Wound Care Innovations, LLC (WCI) owns the exclusive worldwide rights to market a patented FDA cleared wound care product line branded under the name CellerateRx®. The OTC report details the CellerateRx® technology platform, multiple health care applications and opportunities for international expansion.

Geoffrey Eiten, publisher of the OTCFN Report, said, "The advanced wound care market is one of the fastest growing niche segments serving the increased global need for better, more affordable health care. An aging population and increased prevalence of diabetes worldwide are driving up the incidences of chronic pressure ulcers, hard-to-heal wounds and diabetic foot ulcers. Globally, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that more than 180 million people have diabetes, and that this number is likely to more than double by 2030. The patented Activated Collagen used in CellerateRx® has been clinically shown in patients to help advance the management of diabetic foot ulcers and improve the healing process of all types of acute and chronic wounds, including first and second degree burns, and post surgical wounds."
Eiten continued, "In the U.S., CellerateRx® is currently sold to podiatrists and other physicians, hospitals, in-home care providers, health care facilities, medical distributors and direct-to-consumers over the internet. Major international companies in the biotech and pharmaceutical industry are also beginning to take notice. WCI has entered into discussions overseas and anticipates to announce new global partnerships throughout 2009. As Wound Management Technologies continues on an exciting path of domestic and international growth, the Company has the potential to significantly increase shareholder value in 2009 and beyond."
