Active clinical trials for "Diabetic Foot"

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether regular measurement of skin foot temperature with a novel device (DFUPS) will prevent ulcer recurrence in diabetic patients at high risk of foot ulceration. It is planned to regularly measure the temperature of the feet of people with diabetes who have already had a foot ulcer which has subsequently healed. These measurements should allow the identification of hotspots on the foot and may be helpful when advising about ulcer risk and providing preventative treatment. It is hoped to find out whether the regular use of thermal images taken with the DFUPS device together with standard foot treatment may reduce the number of people with diabetes developing ulcers or even prevent foot ulcers.

Multi-center trial, randomized in 2 parallel groups, open label, with a blinded adjudication committee (PROBE methodology), comparing "Orthèse Diabète" with "conventional" removable devices in terms of healing of ulcers. - Primary objective: Evaluate the efficiency of "Orthèse Diabète" compared to "conventional" removable devices, in terms of the proportion of diabetic patients whose principal ulcer will heal completely at 3 months.

This is an open label study of subjects who have failed Protocol PGN-1300. Adult subjects (greater than 18 years old) who present with a mildly infected diabetic foot ulcer (IDSA criteria) having full thickness (i.e., through the dermis but not involving joint capsule, tendon, and bone) and have failed PGN-1300. Subjects must also provide informed consent and meet all other entry criteria to be enrolled and receive PluroGel PN.

This will be a randomized, double-blind (evaluator-blind), vehicle-controlled study of 50 enrolled subjects. Adult subjects (greater than 18 years old) who present with a mildly infected diabetic foot ulcer (IDSA criteria) having full thickness (i.e., through the dermis but not involving joint capsule, tendon, and bone). Subjects must also provide informed consent and meet all other entry criteria to be enrolled and randomly assigned to receive PluroGel N or PluroGel vehicle.

This is comparison trial comparing human dermis to standard wound care for non healing diabetic wound

This study was a Kind of clinical trial with equal randomization, that have been done from January 2009 to June 2011 in the AFZALIPOOR hospital endocrine ward in Kerman-Iran on 128 diabetic patient who had foot wounds.Replacement of conventional therapy by new methodes is one of the more important aims for health professional specially for nurses.One of this new treatment is maggot therapy.

Many people with diabetes will develop a non-healing diabetic foot ulcer. Many ways are available to try to get a diabetic foot ulcer to heal, including application of Oasis Ultra. The hypothesis to be tested is that application of Oasis Ultra will cause more diabetic foot ulcers to heal than wounds treated with regular medical care. Subjects will have their diabetic foot wounds treated for up to 12 weeks with Oasis Ultra or regular medical care .

The purpose of this study is to determine if use of the Medela Invia Motion NPWT system supports acceptable progress towards the goal of therapy when treating patients with a variety of wound types during the evaluation period.

The purpose of this study is to determine if topical application of a hydrogel that contains plant extracts will improve healing of diabetic foot ulcers when compared to treatment with a hydrogel alone.

Subjects enrolled in this study will either use Santyl daily or follow standard care procedures for up to 6 weeks for their diabetic foot wound. After 6 weeks of treatment, the subjects will continue into the follow-up phase for an additional 6 weeks. Study doctors will look at the wound in the office each week (up to 12 weeks) to see if the wound is healing. Depending on a number of factors at each office visit, the study doctors may also use a procedure called sharp debridement to remove dead skin from the wound. This study will test the hypothesis that daily treatment of diabetic foot wounds with Santyl will result in more rapid healing, healthier wounds, and fewer required sharp debridements over the study period than for diabetic foot wounds treated in other ways.
