Cellular and Tissue Based Therapy Registry

Diabetic Foot UlcersVenous Stasis Ulcer3 more

The goal of the Cellular and Tissue Based Therapy Registry (CTPR) for Wounds is to provide real world patient data from electronic health records submitted to meet Stage 2 Meaningful Use in order to understand the value of these products among patients with chronic wounds and ulcers. Randomized, controlled trials to establish product efficacy routinely exclude patients with the co-morbid conditions common to patients seen in usual clinical practice and thus the results of these RCTs tend to be non-generalizable. Little is known about the effectiveness of CTPs among typical patients.

Efficacy of Platelets Rich Plasma as a Therapeutic Tool in Diabetic Foot Ulcers

Diabetic Foot Ulcer

using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in healing diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), and to compare the rate of healing and final outcome with conventional therapy.

Patient Empowerment Study

Diabetic FootQuality of Life3 more

The Patient Empowerment Study is an observational longitudinal study among adults with diabetic foot ulcer (DFU). The scope of this study is to better understand how a patient's DFU disease process and usage of the Podimetrics System can impact patient health-related quality of life. Health-related quality of life will be measured by both the generic 36-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) questionnaire and the ulcer-specific Diabetic Foot Ulcer Scale Short Form (DFS-SF) questionnaire.

Diabetic Neuropathy Screening Study 1.1 + Substudy 1.2-1.3-1.4

Diabetic NeuropathiesDistal Peripheral Sensory Neuropathy4 more

The overall objective of this project is to describe the prevalence of and risk factors to diabetic neuropathy in a representative cohort of diabetes patients and to investigate pathophysiological conditions in those patients with neuropathy. This project will yield substantial new knowledge about the prevalence of diabetic neuropathy in type 1 and type 2 DM persons, new risk factors to neuropathy and the association to other diabetic complications. Findings related to the study may facilitate new treatment regimens prompting a better neuropathy treatment with reduced incidence of diabetic complications. First patients at SDCC will be screened for diabetic neuropathy (Study 1.1) with an extended neuropathy screening program as an addition to the routine neuropathy screening at SDCC. 1000 patients with type 1 DM and 1000 patients with type 2 DM will be included. This screening study is a prerequisite for the further study of study participants in substudies investigating associations between diabetic neuropathy and diabetic complications as described below. Hypothesis: Several patients with diabetes have undiagnosed neuropathy and associated diabetic complications. We hypothesize that diabetic neuropathy is underdiagnosed at SDCC and can be diagnosed with targeted screening with new and traditional measuring techniques. In addition, several patients may have complications related to neuropathy, including foot complications, and dysregulation of glucose metabolism Aim: This study consists of a screening study (study 1.1) and two substudies (1.2 and 1.3 ). Study 1.1 is a cross-sectional study describing the prevalence of diabetic neuropathy based on questionnaire data and objective measures as described below and associated diabetic complications including foot complications. The primary aim is to explore the prevalence of diabatic neuropathy in patients with type 1 and type 2 DM at SDCC and secondarily to explore associations between diabetic neuropathy and complications, as described in the respective sections below. The substudy 1.2 is an observational single center cohort study with the aim of investigating associations between neuropathy diagnosed with new devices for measurement of neuropathy and foot complications in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The substudy 1.3 is an observational single center cohort study investigating the association between CAN and glycemic variability in patients with type 1 diabetes.

Evaluation of a 'Hand-held' Fluorescence Digital Imaging Device for Real-Time Advanced Wound Care...

WoundsDiabetic Foot Ulcers

We have developed an innovative optical molecular imaging platform (called PRODIGI) based on high-resolution fluorescence and white-light technologies in a hand-held, real-time, high-resolution, non-invasive format. PRODIGI offers a non-contact means of obtaining instantaneous image-based measurements of diagnostically-relevant biological and molecular information of a wound and surrounding skin tissues for the first time and could have significant impact on improving conventional wound care, management, and guidance of intervention. The investigators hypothesize that real-time imaging of tissue autofluorescence signals emanating from endogenous connective tissue (e.g. collagen) and pathogenic bacteria within complex wounds can be used to determine healing status (i.e., collagen re-modeling and wound closure), detect wound bacterial contamination and/or infection that is occult under standard clinical white light evaluation, and guide intervention during wound care.

Negative Pressure Wound Therapy Registry

Diabetic Foot UlcersVenous Stasis Ulcer4 more

The goal of the Negative Pressure Wound Therapy Registry (NPWTR) for Wounds is to provide real world patient data from electronic health records submitted to meet Stage 2 Meaningful Use in order to understand the effectiveness and safety of various NPWT devices and methods among patients with chronic wounds and ulcers. Randomized, controlled trials to establish product efficacy routinely exclude patients with the co-morbid conditions common to patients seen in usual clinical practice and thus the results of these Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs) tend to be non-generalizable. Little is known about the effectiveness of NPWT among typical patients. Patient registries are also ideal for assessing long term safety issues in these devices.

DETEC® Esterase for Screening Wound Infection at Point of Care

Diabetic Foot UlcerVenous Leg Ulcer1 more

This non-interventional, single-blinded, prospective, observational study assesses the planar distribution of leukocyte esterase in wounds by placing wound exudates soaked wound dressings in the DETEC® Esterase device during routine wound care. The output of the device is correlated with clinical determination of infection to assess the device efficacy in identifying presumptive infections.

DETEC® pH Point of Care Wound Diagnostic Test

Diabetic Foot UlcerVenous Leg Ulcer3 more

The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between wound alkalinity and the non-healing status of chronic ulcer wounds. It is hypothesized that wounds with an alkaline environment as indicated by DETEC pH will have a high chance of not healing over 12 weeks of wound care.

The Role of Telemedical Monitoring in Diabetic Foot Ulcer Care

Diabetic Foot - Telemedical Monitoring

The role of telemedical monitoring in diabetic foot care is still uncertain. The aim is to compare telemedical + standard and standard alone outpatient monitoring in the care of patients with diabetic foot ulcers in a randomized controlled trial. The primary outcome of the overall study is the time of ulcer healing. The number of amputation, hospital admissions and surgical procedure will be also reported. Investigators hope to include 150 patients in this study.

Using mHealth to Modernize Diabetes Care

Diabetic Foot

In this study the investigators are testing a device that may help us tell how well the participants' wound is healing. This device is called the MIMOSA, and it shines different "colours" of light on the participants' skin. It will not touch the participants' skin, or change how the participants' wound is healing. The MIMOSA is designed to be used alongside the camera that is built into the participants' cell phone, and the investigators will use a cell phone to take a picture of the participants' skin. This picture will tell us how much oxygen is getting to the participants' wound, which can tell us more about how the participants are healing. The MIMOSA device is an experimental diagnostic tool, and will not influence how the participants' wound is healing.
