TruSkin®: Study for Treatment of Chronic Venous Leg Ulcers
Chronic Venous Leg UlcersThe purpose of this study is to compare the clinical outcomes of TruSkin® and an Active Comparator in patients with chronic venous leg ulcers.
The Effect of Manual Lymphatic Drainage
Venous Leg UlcerVenous Insufficiency1 moreIn venous ulcer, venous insufficiency is accompanied by lymphatic insufficiency. Manual lymphatic drainage (mld) technique cause to increase contraction rate of lymphatic collector and venous flow. It is known that Manual lymphatic drainage accelerates microcirculation, enabling nutrients and oxygen to reach tissues and at the same time removing residual substances from the tissue. We hypothesis that if we inrease to lypmhatic activity with MLD, we could stimulate healing of ulcer. The aim of this study to investigate the effect of manual lymphatic drainage on venous ulcer healing.
Effectiveness of a Pressure Indicator Guided and a Conventional Bandaging in Treatment of Venous...
Venous InsufficiencyObjective of this study are to compare the interface pressure by applying ordinary elastic bandage (OEB) and CPG-EB. In addition, investigators compared the percentage of patients who could apply the optimal pressure with OEB and CPG-EB.
Wool-derived Keratin Dressings for Venous Leg Ulcers
Varicose UlcerVenous leg ulcers (VLU) are the most common leg ulcer, can be painful, and limit work, lifestyles and activity, especially in older patients. Compression bandaging is the main treatment but there are few added treatments for patients with slow healing VLU. About 50% of patients with VLU may be slow healing. Research suggests using keratin dressings as well as using compression may help healing in patients with show healing VLU, but the current evidence is not enough to change clinical practice. The investigators will conduct a randomised controlled trial to test whether using keratin dressings is better than usual care for slow healing VLU.
Effects of Topical Dynamic Phototherapy on the Microbiota of Chronic Wounds
Leg UlcerThe main objective of this study is to estimate the change in the relative numbers of commensal or low virulence potential bacteria before and after one session TDP.
Efficacy Study for Geko Device in VLU Patients
Venous Leg UlcerLeg Ulcers Venous3 moreEight weeks, comprised of four weeks Run-in Phase of Standard Care (SC) treatment followed by four weeks of treatment allocated by randomisation (Treatment Phase). To compare two daily geko™ device treatment durations, six hours and 12 hours, in conjunction with SC, with each other and to SC alone, in patients with venous leg ulcers
Compression Therapy for Leg Ulcers and Kaposi Sarcoma in Western Kenya
Chronic Leg UlcerKaposi Sarcoma1 moreThe efficacy of locally sourced compression therapy in the management of chronic leg ulcers and Kaposi Sarcoma in western Kenya will be studied in a rural setting
A Prospective, Open Label, Multicenter Trial for Evaluating the Efficacy of Treating and Managing...
Diabetic Foot UlcerPressure Ulcer4 moreThe study is a prospective, single arm, multicenter efficacy study, consisting of 60 subjects who will complete the study (note: if any patients are lost to follow-up or withdrawn, enrollment will increase to compensate for loss of these subjects). The subjects will receive up to 16 RD1 applications. In case of complete healing, subject will be called for one confirmatory visit two weeks later or before discharge from the SNF (the earlier of the two). Subject data will be kept in each site's records. All diabetic subjects' glycemic management will be performed by a qualified physician. All subjects will have wound care specialist or wound surgeon or dermatologist involved in their wound care
Effects of Non Contact Low Frequency Ultrasound in Healing Venous Leg Ulcers
Venous InsufficiencyVenous Reflux1 moreThis trial is a prospective, randomized, controlled, multi-center study of subjects presenting with chronic lower extremity venous ulcers. The study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of MIST Therapy® plus standard of care (MIST+SOC) compared to Standard of Care (SOC) alone in the treatment of lower extremity venous ulcers.
A Pilot Trial of the Use of ReCell® Autologous Cell Harvesting Device for Venous Leg Ulcers
Venous Leg UlcersThis is a prospective, randomised, open label, controlled pilot study to evaluate the safety and preliminary effectiveness of the ReCell Autologous Cell Harvesting Device (ReCell) for the management of chronic leg ulcers associated with venous insufficiency. Outcome will be compared between study participants receiving standard care (debridement, compression therapy) and participants receiving ReCell in addition to standard care.
