Active clinical trials for "Diabetic Foot"

Observe Timing to complete healing of wounds & Limb salvage in both cohorts those who are undergoing Debridement only and those who are undergoing Debridement plus PTA

Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) and their associated complications like amputations are increasingly becoming a problem in low and middle income (LMI) countries. Obesity (increased body fat/adiposity), which has been shown to complicate many diseases, is also increasing in LMI setting. It is however not certain whether increased adiposity, may make it difficult for DFUs to heal. Investigators aim to understand whether increased adiposity and accompanied local microbial factors have any negative impact on healing and progression of DFUs.

This retrospective study examines the surgical and antibiotic treatment of diabetic foot syndrome infections treated at the University Hospital Basel since 2019. It analyses the implementation of the hospital in-house guidelines published in 2019 with regard to antibiotic therapy in diabetic foot infections, taking into account clinical, microbiological and histopathological criteria. The defined endpoints are (i) fully compliant with internal policies, (ii) partially compliant with internal policies, and (iii) not compliant with internal policies. The recording of these proportions is descriptive.

This research is being done because people with diabetes have reduced healing capacity and prone to develop infections of foot wounds. This can be problematic because wounds that become infected may result in amputation and more severe complications. New evidence suggests that a better understanding of the microbiome of wounds (e.g., bacterial presence) may provide information about wound healing and provide an earlier opportunity to identify an individual who may be prone to develop diabetic foot infection in their wound. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of the microbiome of the diabetic foot ulcer in development of infection and wound healing. Once the role of the microbiome is confirmed, progress towards the prevention and treatment of diabetic foot ulcers and complications may be possible.

This study was planned as a prospective case-control study to examine the effect of PRF application on wound healing in diabetic foot wound. The sample of the study will consist of patients with diabetic foot wounds, who met the inclusion criteria and agreed to participate in the study. It is planned to include 7 patients for the experimental group and 7 patients for the control group (14 patients in total). If the patient is in the experimental group, PRF will be applied to the diabetic foot wound, and in the control group, classic wound dressing (CWD) will be applied.

An open, non-comparative, multicenter investigation to evaluate the safety and performance of Exufiber Ag+, a gelling fiber silver dressing, when used in medium to high exuding chronic wounds

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Granexin gel is safe and effective in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers.

This study will assess the safety and efficacy of using gene therapy via intramuscular injections of the calf for patients with chronic non-healing foot ulcers.

A randomized, controlled open-label, parallel group study to examine the effectiveness of a local application of the kalahari melon (Citrullus lanatus) seed oil for the healing of non-infected diabetic foot ulcers.

This is an observational, single-arm, on-label study. This clinical study will be conducted at up to 2 sites with a total of 10 subjects per site. All subjects will receive standard of care treatment which includes DFU treatments with the dermaPACE device.
