Game-Changer at MEDevice Boston: elecell Unveiled the World’s First Self-Powered Chronic Wound Patch

Boston, MA — September 30, 2025 — elecell, a medical device company pioneering accessible chronic wound care innovation, announced today its self-powered chronic wound healing patch at the MEDevice Boston. This marks a significant leap forward in wound management, as the device requires no external power source to accelerate healing.
MEDevice Boston, attended by approximately 2,000 participants, including global healthcare companies, startups, investors, and research institutions, has established itself as a major international event for sharing the latest innovations and future strategies in the healthcare industry. In recognition of elecell’s impact, elecell has been honored with the Franklin Visionary Award for Product of the Year at MEDevice Boston 2025.
“Traditional chronic wound care is often costly and complicated,” said Chris Han, CEO of elecell. “Our patch is designed to be applied as easily as a standard dressing, but with the added benefit of a built-in, flexible, cost-effective and eco-friendly paper battery system that speeds up healing. We’re delivering a solution that empowers patients and reduces the burden on healthcare systems.”
The elecell patch integrates a thin, flexible paper battery system directly into the dressing. By generating its own energy through transpiration, the patch eliminates chargers, wires, and bulky devices. The benefits include:
Ease of use — applies like a regular bandage
Affordability — developed for broad patient access
Clinical value — designed to accelerate recovery and improve outcomes
With the global chronic wound care market expected to exceed $20 billion by 2030, elecell’s innovation positions the company to meet growing demand for practical and scalable solutions.
