announced the addition of the "The Top 40 Manufacturers Of Wound Care Products
In Europe" report to their offering.

It is estimated that the global wound care market is worth $14 billion and is
growing at 7% per year. The market is influenced by the general increase in life
expectancy and the development of new and improved products.

The population of the European Union (EU) was 499.0 in 2008. Within the EU,
Germany is the most populous country with 82.0 million inhabitants. It is
estimated that 4.0 million patients in Germany, suffer from venous, diabetic or
pressure ulcers.

A recent nationwide study on the costs-of-illness of venous leg ulcers in
Germany revealed the median duration of wound was seven years and the average
total costs per patient and year ranged from euro9,900 to euro10,800. It is not
