Diabetic Foot Ulcer Prevention System
Diabetic FootTo evaluate a recently developed non-invasive infrared thermal camera called Diabetic Foot Ulcer Prevention System (DFUPS) in a clinical setting by studying healthy volunteers.
An Observational Clinical Trial Examining the Effect of Topical Oxygen Therapy (NATROX™) on the...
Diabetic Foot UlcerNon-healing WoundThis study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of NATROX™ Topical Oxygen Wound Therapy for subjects with non-healing foot ulceration. Subjects will be treated with standard care for 4 weeks. If the wound is not reduced by more than 40%, NATROX™ will be applied for the next 12 weeks. Throughout the study period, wound measurements will be taken to measure wound reduction.

Diabetic Foot UlcerThis is an open-label follow up study to evaluate the safety for the subjects with ALLO-ASC-DFU treatment in phase 1 clinical trial (ALLO-ASC-DFU-101) for 23 months.
Patients With Diabetic Neuropathy Who Receive Physiotherapy Treatment Will Have a Decrease in Diabetic...
Diabetic Foot UlcerDiabetic Neuropathy PeripheralThis study evaluates the effects of a physiotherapy protocol (manual therapy and exercise) in the prevention of diabetic foot ulcers in patients with diabetic neuropathy. A group of participants will receive a physiotherapy protocol added to their usual medical treatment and the other group will not receive physiotherapy treatment.

Diabetic Foot UlcerThis is a follow-up study to evaluate the safety for the subjects with ALLO-ASC-DFU treatment in phase 3 clinical trial (ALLO-ASC-DFU-301) for 24 months
Prevention Of Primary Foot Ulcers in High-risk Diabetes Patients
Diabetes MellitusFoot Ulcer2 moreThis is a primary prevention study which aims to assess reduction in the rate of diabetic foot ulcers in patients with high-risk diabetic feet using 3D printed insoles compared to standard care
Digital Foot Check by Using the D-Foot, a New Software
Diabetic FootDiabetic Foot Ulcer4 morePatients with diabetes should be thoroughly examined before they are provided with insoles and shoes. In the study the feet are examined with the help of a new software, the D-Foot. D-Foot includes questions and surveys. The aim of the of the study is evaluate how the patients experience the visit at the department of Prosthetics & Orthotics based on the digital foot check.
Cutoff Value of Ankle Brachial Pressure Index for Vacuum Assisted Closure Application in Diabetic...
Diabetic FootAbstract Objective To verify cutoff value of ankle brachial pressure index at which diabetic foot ulcers get benefit from vacuum assisted closure application and to assess impact of its application on ankle brachial pressure index value in the presence of peripheral arterial disease. Methods An observational descriptive prospective analytic study had been performed.56 patients were enrolled in the study. All patients had three sessions of vacuum-assisted closure application. Debridement was done when indicated. Ulcer dimensions were measured before and after each session, while ankle brachial pressure index was measured before the first session .
Evaluation of Fluorescence-image Guided Wound Assessment vs. Standard Practice
Foot UlcerDiabetic1 moreThe current trial aims to compare the assessment of diabetic foot ulcers by fluorescence image guidance to standard practice. The device will be used to acquire fluorescence images of diabetic foot ulcers: when wounds are illuminated by violet/blue light, most pathogenic bacterial species emit a unique red fluorescence signal. The device is intended to be used as part of the clinical assessment process, which may include visual assessment, signs of heat or high temperature, the presence of exudate, and redness in the area. Images will guide the clinician to inspect, sample or further evaluate areas where fluorescing bacteria is present. This study will allow us to determine the benefit of fluorescence image-guided procedure as compared to standard clinical practice to assess bacterial burden in diabetic foot ulcers. Microbiological swabbing under standard practice and fluoresce-guided imaging will be performed in order to compare the two techniques.
Osteomyelitis: Procalcitonin to Diagnose and Monitor Osteomyelitis
DiabetesFoot Ulcer1 moreThe investigator plans a cohort study of 80 subjects admitted to hospital with a diabetic foot infection in order to compare serial bone biopsies (the current "gold standard") and procalcitonin to diagnose and monitor the effectiveness of therapy for osteomyelitis. The investigator will collect specimens as part of an existing trial to evaluate negative pressure wound therapy in diabetic infected wounds. A high proportion of these patients have osteomyelitis and will receive standard therapy including repeat bone biopsy and parenteral antibiotics. The investigator expects repeated measurement of procalcitonin will be highly correlated with repeated bone biopsy after antibiotic treatment has been completed to determine if therapy has been successful or if additional antibiotic therapy is needed.
