Vomaris Innovations, based in Chandler, Ariz., recently went to market with the Prosit adhesive bandage, which uses microscopic batteries mounted on a flexible membrane to pass a tiny amount of current - 1.2 volts - over the affected skin. Though the process isn't understood entirely, Vomaris founder Jeff Skiba, 55, won FDA approval for use of the Prosit in hospitals after an impressive array of clinical trials showed that it jump-started healing for all patients.

"There's no question it works," says James McCoy, a professor of surgery at the Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta. Using the Prosit, McCoy saved one patient from a potential amputation and healed another's severe burns.
