Many patients suffer from chronic non-healing wounds as well as acute wounds. There is a need to develop treatments to accelerate and improve healing of chronic and acute wounds. More research is needed to evaluate the role of 4-aminopyridine (4-AP), a promising new agent with an excellent safety profile, on wound healing. The investigational treatment will be used to evaluate the role of (4-AP) on the treatment of wounds to accelerate wound healing in healthy adults. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of 4-AP on the treatment of wounds to accelerate healing. The investigational treatment will be used to test the hypothesis that 4-AP can speed wound healing.
The ability to have a visual aid to depict areas of vascular disease that are affecting the patient's health can help in patient comprehension of the problem. This comprehension can lead to better understanding of the issue and increase patient compliance to treatment. The hand drawn sketch produced by the ultrasound technologist provides an inadequate visualization of the vascular insufficiency that is causing the patient's symptoms. PIUR imaging has developed PIUR Infinity tUS, a 3D freehand tomographic ultrasound system capable of rapid, safe and accurate reconstructive 3D quantifiable vascular imaging. This system will provide a low cost and reproducible imaging solution that will be an effective educational tool for people with vascular disease.
This study will evaluate the use of free autologous dermal fat grafting (also called free dermal fat autografting) to treat complex craniofacial wounds that have failed standard treatment and to understand how well these grafts work to repair wounds long term. Patients who have undergone free autologous dermal fat grafting to treat complex craniofacial wounds less than 1 week ago will have photographs and small biopsies taken of the area that was grafted. Patients will be followed for 2 years to monitor the area that was grafted.
This prospective, placebo-controlled, double blind, randomized study is designed to assess the healing effects of AR/101 on chronic Hard-to-Heal wound(s) of different etiologies including arterial ulcers, diabetic ulcers and venous ulcers, of at least 3 months duration. After collection of comprehensive medical data to confirm eligibility of patient and obtaining informed consent , patients will enter Screening run-in Period where all wounds will be cleaned if necessary by surgical debridement and irrigation (isotonic solution) prior to initiation (run-in phase) of the study according to physician's instructions. During the 14 day screening period, all subjects will receive standard of care (SoC) on a daily basis, as per indication and patients status, according to physicians instructions. Wounds will be morphologically assessed by the treating physician and by photographic evaluation by the PI once a week - at days 7 and 14 of the screening run-in phase. Following the run-in period, Subjects with wounds of ≥ 5cm2 and ≤100 cm2 of at least 3 months duration that fail to respond to treatment with SoC during the screening run-in phase will be enrolled into the study. Eligible subjects with wounds will be randomized and treated topically with AR/101+ SoC or placebo +SoC once daily for up to 14 days. During this treatment phase I, depending on their wound size and wound type, subjects will receive treatment dose applied topically daily and wounds will be dressed according to physician's instructions. Wounds will be photographed daily and assessed by the treating physician in the clinic once a week (at the end of each weekly period). During the treatment period, adverse events and concomitant medications will be monitored; wounds will be morphologically assessed by photo documentation and followed for wound bed progression and granulation tissue formation. At the end of Treatment period I, patient's wounds will be analyzed and all patients from both treatment arms with wound score 0-2 will be assigned to receive the study drug for and additional up to 14 days treatment phase II in full accordance with the treatment regimen described in Treatment phase I. A termination visit will be performed at day 14 of Treatment phase I or II or earlier if the wound has reached the maximum score on the granulation scale or if the wound is ready for skin grafting; or in any case of early withdrawal that is not due to withdrawal of consent.
The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the safety and exploratory efficacy of the medical collagen membrane with umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of patients with skin defects.
A skin stretching device has been designed to stretch tissue prior to surgery, during surgery and in order to secure wounds following surgery. The device may be used in non-invasive and invasive applications.
Morphine gel applied topically to wounds will reduce wound pain and decrease patients use of oral and intravenous pain medications, therefore reducing side effects.
