A Study of GM-XANTHO in Pressure Ulcer Patients

Pressure UlcerDiabetes Mellitus

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, 3-arm, single-center, phase IIa, parallel study to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of topically applied 2.5%, 5% GM-XANTHO plus standard of care in patients with stage II or stage III pressure ulcer.

Phage Therapy for the Prevention and Treatment of Pressure Ulcers.

Pressure Ulcer

This study will evaluate a topical bacteriophage therapy product (BACTELIDE) as an adjunct to standard therapy for the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers colonized with S. aureus, P. aeruginosa, or K. pneumoniae species. This study will compare the safety and efficacy of BACTELIDE in conjunction with standard of care (SOC) versus a placebo in conjunction with standard of care.

Peripheral Tissue Perfusion and Oxygenation in Areas at Risk of Press Ulcer (POTER-OIL)

Pressure Ulcer

The study objectives will be: Primary objectives: To determine the effects on oxygenation and tissue perfusion of applying HFA (Hyperoxygenated Fatty Acids) or EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil) to the heels of healthy subjects, evaluating the maximum variation of oxygenation and flow when the heels are subjected to pressure. To determine the levels of tissue oxygenation and perfusion associated with the appearance of blanching erythema in the heels of acute hospitalised patients and patients admitted to social health centers for the elderly. Secondary objectives: To determine whether there are differences in oxygenation and peripheral tissue perfusion between heels to which HFA vs. EVOO is applied. To evaluate the possible progressive loss of the efficacy of HFA and EVOO in terms of tissue oxygenation and perfusion in patients who are bedridden for extended periods. Methodology: Experimental study in two phases: preclinical and clinical. Phase 1 with healthy subjects, with a randomized and open design, with an intrasubject control group. Phase 2 with hospitalized subjects and patients admitted to social health centers for the elderly, with a randomized and open design, with an intrasubject control group.

Pressures During Prone Positions in Healthy Volunteers

Pressure Ulcer

Prone positioning (PP) reduces mortality in the most severe cases of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Despite the benefits of PP, this technique presents adverse effects such as an increased risk of bedsores, linked to the duration, which must be around 16 consecutive hours. There are 2 PP techniques: Positioning with arms alongside the body Swimmer's position At present, no study compares or has compared prospectively, the impact of the type of position used during ventral decubitus on mortality and the incidence of pressure sores, nor on secondary effects in intensive care. Pressure transducers are available for instantaneous measurement of pressures between 2 interfaces. The investigators have acquired a pressure-measuring device, a mattress topper which is attached to the resuscitation mattress and which, connected to a PC, provides a live display of the pressures between the patient and the mattress. The investigators would like to use their device to measure pressures during these 2 PP in healthy volunteers, which would enable them to obtain the world's first data on the real pressures generated during PP.

Comparaison of Two Prone Position Techniques on Occurence of Pressure Sores in ICU

Acute Respiratory Distress SyndromePressure Ulcers Stage III

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a diffuse inflammation of the lungs that occurs in a variety of diseases. According to the Berlin definition, ARDS is characterized by diffuse lung damage in patients with predisposing factors. Understanding the physiology of ARDS has led to improved ventilatory management, which must be protective to ensure adequate oxygenation and CO2 clearance. Prone position (PP) is a technique that can reduce mortality in patients with severe ARDS. PP results in a more homogeneous distribution of pulmonary stress and strain, helping to protect the lung against ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). It also increases the PaO2/FiO2 (P/F) ratio, improves the pulmonary ventilation-perfusion ratio, decreases PaCO2 and promotes ventilation of the dorsal lung regions. This technique should be offered to all patients with severe ARDS for 16 consecutive hours, to improve survival and weaning success from mechanical ventilation. However, PP has adverse effects. A meta-analysis showed an increased risk of pressure sores, possibly linked to generalized acute inflammation associated with significant cytokine discharge and diffuse lesions of the vascular endothelium. PP also increased the risk of obstruction and displacement of the endotracheal tube. Final positioning in PP, (i.e., the position imposed on the patient for the duration of the PP session) varies from one ICU to another, and is rarely described in scientific articles. There are two main variants: prone , with arms alongside the body prone, swimmer's position The aim of our study is to show that the "swimmer" PP reduces the occurrence of stage 3 or higher pressure sores, compared with the "arms alongside the body" PP (standard care) at Day 28 post inclusion.

Treatment of Osteomyelitis-associated Pressure Ulcers by Surgical Flaps and Anti-bacterial Agents...

Disability or Chronic Disease Leading to DisablementPressure Ulcer1 more

People with neuromotor disability (i.e. following an inborn or acquired spinal cord, cerebral or peripheral neurological lesion) are at high risk of osteomyelitis-associated pressure ulcers. The management of osteomyelitis-associated pressure ulcers is controversial. In our center, patients benefit from a one stage surgical management with bone shaving and flap covering osteitis of pressure ulcer to perform wound closing. Surgery is followed by an antibiotic treatment, secondarily adapted to intraoperative samples. The aim of this study is to describe the cohort and to identify factors associated with failure (or success) in this frail population.

A Real World, Observational Registry of Chronic Wounds and Ulcers

Diabetic FootVaricose Ulcer13 more

More than 100 hospital based outpatient wound centers in the USA and Puerto Rico agree to transmit structured data on all patients followed with chronic wounds and ulcers (e.g. diabetic foot ulcers, venous ulcers, pressure ulcers, arterial ulcers, surgical wounds, and traumatic wounds). Data are collected at point of care including adherence to wound care quality measures developed by the USWR as a Qualified Clinical Data Registry (QCDR).

The Effect of Pressure Ulcer Education on the Knowledge Level of the Relatives of the Patients

Healthy

The purpose of this randomized controlled trial, which included pretest and posttest, was to examine the effectiveness of pressure ulcer prevention and care education given to caregivers of patients treated in a palliative care clinic. The key questions it aims to answer are: Does the routine clinical training given in the palliative care clinic have an effect on the knowledge level of patients' relatives about pressure ulcers? Does the pressure ulcer education given to the relatives of patients treated in the palliative care clinic have an effect on the level of knowledge about pressure ulcers? Participants will participate in an educational activity on pressure ulcers. Researchers will compare whether pressure ulcer training given to palliative care patient relatives is effective compared to routine service training with lecture, question-answer and presentation method.
