Active clinical trials for "Foot Ulcer"

This study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of Nocardia rubra Cell Wall Skeleton (NCWS) in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcer wounds. The study was a prospective, randomized, controlled, multicentre study . The subjects were randomly divided into two groups: NCWS group and control group（silver ions dressing）, with a total of 116 cases and 58 cases in each group. Patients in the NCWS group received nocardia rubra cell wall skeleton for external use, in parallel with silver ions dressing treatment. The efficacy and side effects were observed, with a primary endpoint of 30-days wound healing rate.

The study will examine the effectiveness of a decellularized dermal matrix (i.e., DermGEN™) in improving wound healing, quality of life and associated costs of treatment of DFUs in First Nations people living in the Northwestern Ontario Communities. First Nations people with active diabetic foot (DFU) ulcer attending a wound care clinic located at the Rainy River district office. An interventional, two-arm, randomized, prospective study of (1) standard of care (control) vs. (2) DermGEN™ - a decellularized dermal matrix (treatment) will be used in the treatment and management of DFU. Patients will be randomized to each arm (n=60 per arm) based on power calculations using data from our Pilot study.

The objective of the study is to develop a peer support program that helps improve ulcer care in patients with a diabetic foot ulcer (DFU).Diabetes, peripheral arterial disease (PAD), foot ulceration, and subsequent amputation are unevenly patterned in terms of racial/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, health insurance, and geographic area. The project will identify opportunities to reduce health disparities among economically marginalized patients regarding DFU outcomes.

Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a major complication and the leading cause of hospitalization among people with diabetes mellitus. It occurs in 15% of all patients with diabetes and precedes 84% of all lower leg amputations. Despite many therapeutic advances over the past decades, including dressings (hydrocolloids, alginate, skin substitutes) and growth factors, healing rates of DFU remain low. Mechanisms of faulty wound healing in diabetic patients are complex, related to both intrinsic and extrinsic factors. The main reasons for impaired healing appears to be: 1/exhaustion of local cell populations that promote wound healing; 2/excessive production of matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) coupled with reduced expression of the tissue inhibitors of MMPs; 3/impaired neovascularisation coupled with reduced numbers of endothelial progenitor cells and impairment of their functioning. These imbalances may result in excessive degradation of extracellular matrix components, as well as an inappropriate local inflammatory response . Adipose-derived stroma vascular fraction provides a rich and easily accessible source of autologous cells for regenerative medicine applications. Il contains multipotent stem cells and progenitors called adipose-derived regenerative cells (ADRCs) able to stimulate wound healing. There are attracted to the wound site where they supplement the wound bed with similar cell types, secrete numerous growth factors and cytokines, increase macrophage recruitment, enhance granulation tissue, and improve vascularisation . The reparative capabilities coupled with good safety of ADRCs have been illustrated in a study for treating severe and irreversible radiation-induced lesions, and in a study for treating sclerodactyly in patients with diffuse scleroderma. Numerous case reports showing healing of refractory wounds following treatment with autologous ADRCs have also been reported. Based on these previous reports, the present study aims to assess the efficacy and tolerance of injection of ADRCs for the local treatment of neuropathic or neuro-ischemic DFU.

A Prospective, Double-blind, Multi-center, Randomized, Parallel-group safety and efficacy study of adipose-derived regenerative cells (ADRCs) in the treatment of patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFU).

The geko™ Cross Therapy REGISTRY - Wound is a prospective, observational, anonymised data collection Registry with no experimental treatment that will fulfil an unmet need for an observational Registry to provide long-term clinical data to demonstrate patient benefit and regulatory compliance.

Intervention in the form of a PA (physical activity) program combining aerobic, resistance, and flexibility exercises adapted for wearing a lower limb offloading device and limiting weight-bearing on the feet, with a duration of twelve (12) weeks, consisting of two supervised sessions and one unsupervised home session per week.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare safety and performance of the study device to the current typical NHS standards of care device. The main outcomes it aims to achieve are: Complete wound healing at 12 weeks (100% epithelialised) % Reduction in wound area at 12 weeks Participants will attend their NHS podiatry clinic appointment as normal and will be assigned either the study device or the current typical NHS standard of care device. Researchers will compare the study device group to the standard group to assess the outcomes mentioned previously.

Despite conflicting and contradictory evidence regarding its efficacy, some wound care centres have advocated and adopted ozone for treating DFU. However, there are gaps in the application of topical ozone therapy. Reported no significant impact on the healing process of DFU, and not all said that topical ozone can enhance the healing process. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of topical ozone therapy in conjunction with standard wound care versus routine wound care alone in treating DFU. The wound, ischemia, and foot infection (WIFI) scale was used to measure wound size, the tissue survival rate at DFU, infection, peripheral microcirculation, glycemic control, Hba1c control, and wound healing.

The goal of this randomized control trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of Platelet Rich Plasma VS Platelet Fibrin Plasma in patients with diabetes foot ulcer. The main question it aims to answer are: Whether the Platelet Fibrin Plasma have noninferior efficacy than Platelet Rich Plasma in treatment of diabetes foot ulcer？ Whether the Platelet Fibrin Plasma have noninferior safety than Platelet Rich Plasma in treatment of diabetes foot ulcer？ Participants will be assigned with a 1:1 ratio into intervention group and control group. Participants of intervention group will receive Platelet Fibrin Plasma in addition with clinical optimal treatment plan after the wound bed preparation for closure. Participants of intervention group will receive Platelet Rich Plasma in addition with clinical optimal treatment plan after the wound bed preparation for closure.
