Filter by:Study will evaluate the use of lower-limb assistive exo-skeletons worn on the ankle and foot. Participants will wear the exo-skeletons and walk in a safe environment. Measurements will be taken to determine how the exo-skeletons affect the pressure on the feet of people with diabetic foot ulcer and how they walk.
The aim of this study is to compare between the platelet rich plasma and normal saline dressing in the healing diabetic foot ulcers. It will be a randomized controlled trial.
The global prevalence of diabetes is on the rise and with it increase in prevalence of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). These recalcitrant wounds are difficult to manage and pose a heavy economic burden. Photobiomodulation (low level laser) is used for acceleration of wound healing. The current study is designed to evaluate the effectiveness of B-cure laser, a home-use low-level laser device, for acceleration of diabetic foot ulcer healing over standard treatment.

Diabetic foot ulcers are associated with high risk of amputation. About 50% of patients undergoing non-traumatic lower limb amputations are diabetics5. The 5-year amputation rate is estimated to be 19% with a mean time to amputation 58 months since the onset of an diabetic foot ulcer6.Because infection and tissue hypoxia are the major contributing factors for non-healing diabetic foot ulcers, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) carries a potential benefit for treating these problematic wounds that do not respond to standard therapy. The role of oxygen in the wound healing cascade and subsequent combatting action against bacterial invasion, especially anaerobes, is well documented.14 Delayed or arrested healing and the development of infection is a direct result from decreased perfusion and poor oxygenation of tissue.15 The presence of wound hypoxia is an major etiological pathway in the development of chronic non-healing diabetic foot ulcers
Determine if use of the Medela Invia Motion NPWT system supports acceptable progress towards the goal of therapy when treating patients with a variety of wound types during the evaluation period.
A prospective, randomized, controlled clinical trial (RCT) using a cross-over (repeated measures) design to evaluate safety and efficacy of three foam wound dressings in the local management of chronic wounds.
Assess the effect of iontophoresis of treprostinil on wound closure over 12 weeks, in patients with DFU. In the present study the investigators aim at establishing the proof-of-concept of iontophoresis of treprostinil as a potential treatment of diabetic foot ulcers in humans. The main hypothesis is that in patients with DFUs, the pharmacodynamic effect of a PGI2 analogue potentiates the effect of low-intensity current on microvascular function, tissue oxygenation and healing.
This is an observational, single-arm, on-label study. This clinical study will be conducted at up to 2 sites with a total of 10 subjects per site. All subjects will receive standard of care treatment which includes DFU treatments with the dermaPACE device.
Primary Objective: To assess the safety profile of TWB-103 administered to subjects with diabetic lower limb ulcers Secondary Objective: To explore the efficacy of TWB-103 administered to subjects with diabetic lower limb ulcers
