Active clinical trials for "Pressure Ulcer"

The PuraPly AM case series is a prospective, observational study for patients who have received PuraPly AM which consists of a collagen sheet coated with polyhexamethylene biguanide hydrochloride (PHMB) and is intended for the management of wounds; no experimental intervention is involved.

The RESPOND Registry is an observational study to assess the impact of PuraPly™ AM on the management of wounds in real world clinical settings; no experimental intervention is involved.

This study describes a procedure to collect a subject's position, movement, physiological data and usability information using Masimo's investigational device.

Difficulty healing wounds have a significant effect to the general fitness of the patient and his quality of life. On Account of the frequency of their appearing, constitute the serious health and social problem. In comprehensive dealing with such patients physiotherapy will matter greatly. The visible polychromatic polarized light is most often used physical factor assisting comprehensive treatment bedsores. Purpose of the work: Analyze of using the visible polychromatic polarized light in the comprehensive process of healing bedsores at elderly people with the limited motor activity. Material and methods: Participants receive interventions as part of routine medical care, and a researcher studies the effect of the intervention. The study was conducted in people over 65 years old, with bedsores grade III and IV in Torrance scale. The therapy included radiation of bedsores with VIP light. Effectiveness of the method of treatment was examined using photographic images and to measure the extent of the wound.

Pressure ulcers associated with osteitis are frequent among patients with spinal cord injury (SCI), and optimal management is not well known. In a French referral center, debridement and flap coverage surgeries performed simultaneously are followed by a short antibiotic treatment targeting the bacteria involved. The aim of the study is to evaluate patient's outcome at Day 45 after surgery, and identify factors associated with failure.

To evaluate efficacy and safety of sericin and chitosan cream for preventing and limiting the progressive of pressure sore in 20 patients

The main objective of this study is to characterize the evolution (over a period of 28 days) of superficial and deep bacterial skin flora in patients with stage 3 or 4 sacral pressure ulcers (bedsores). Changes in terms of pathogenic, potentially pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacterial species at the intra-individual and population levels.

The aim of this study is to assess the intra and inter-subjects variability of the pressure measurement cartography in healthy and well and able volunteers, sitting on a rigid base during two hours.

The primary purpose of this research study is to evaluate if DermaTherapy® bedding will significantly reduce pressure ulcer incidence by decreasing maceration, friction, and shearing among residents of Nursing Homes.

The PuraPly Antimicrobial Wound Matrix (PuraPly AM) case series is a prospective, observational study for patients who have received PuraPly AM which consists of a collagen sheet coated with polyhexamethylenbiguanide hydrochloride (PHMB) and is intended for the management of wounds; no experimental intervention is involved.
