    Cannabis-Based Medicine: A Breakthrough For Healing Intractable Chronic Wounds

    I cover how older adults are discovering and re-discovering cannabis.

    Chronic wounds disproportionately affect older adults, severely impairing their health and quality of life. Aging diminishes our capacity for healing, and conditions such as diabetes, vascular disease, cancer and surgical procedures put elder adults at further risk of developing chronic wounds.
    While notoriously difficult to heal, a new, experimental cannabinoid-based treatment promises to vastly improve the prognosis for the millions of older adults who suffer from chronic wounds.
    A Multi-Billion Dollar Market
    According to the American Professional Wound Care Association, non-healing wounds impact some 15% of Medicare beneficiaries, and the costs associated with treating them can reach $30 Billion.
    The anti-inflammatory properties of cannabinoids are driving investigations into potential therapies for an entire spectrum of disease states, and treatment for chronic wound healing is one of them.

    Results of a recently completed study found that an experimental cannabinoid-based topical medicine achieved an extraordinary 90% success rate in healing chronic wounds. Dr. Vincent Maida, a palliative medicine specialist at the University of Toronto and principal investigator of the study, recruited thirty patients in an open-label study testing his proprietary Topical Cannabis-Based Medicines (TCBM). Twenty-seven of the participants achieved complete closure of wounds that, in some cases, had resisted healing for over a decade.
    Cannabinoids for healing
    Dr. Maida has been investigating cannabinoids for treating pain and wounds for over 20 years. During a graduate program on wounds at University of Toronto’s Dalla Lana School of Public Health, he encountered a pre-clinical study showing evidence of the efficacy of cannabinoids for wound healing. He recalls: “My supervisor thought I was off my rocker that I thought that cannabinoids could be effective for treating integumentary (the skin and mucous membrane system) and wound conditions. Since then the basic science has been catching up and validating all of my research.”
