Filter by:TTT is a novel surgical technique that may potentially solve the long-standing deficit of seeking effective treatment for diabetic foot ulcers, decreasing the need for amputations and softening the socio-economic impact it brings. This trial will be the world's first prospective RCT to verify the promising clinical studies on the clinical benefit of TTT in treating diabetic foot ulcers. In addition, blood samples from this study will allow us to study the various systemic circulating soluble factors in relation to neovascularisation, immunomodulation, and stem cell mobilisation. By taking the blood and various time points, we will better understand the complex interplay between various biomarkers. This GRF will allow us to obtain tissue samples to analyse the histological cellular changes after TTT surgery. It will provide us with more insight on how TTT works, as well as potentially helping us pinpoint the important changes and timeframes related to this intervention. The PI, Co-Is and collaborators create a strong team of clinicians and scientists with a solid clinical and basic science track record. The team has published guidelines and surgical techniques in TTT and run several training cadaveric workshops teaching the TTT surgical technique to local orthopaedic surgeons. The team has also established a rat TTT model and published on TTT immunomodulation and neovascularisation in addition to other ongoing mechanistic experiments in animals. This prospective multi-centre randomised controlled trial may act as the foundation for launching this cost-effective TTT surgery to regulate neovascularisation, neurogenesis, immunomodulation and mobilisation of MSCs for the treatment of various chronic conditions. Regenerative medicine is a multi-million dollar industry, and the potential use of TTT can result in a range of clinical applications not limited to DFUs.
During the observational, non-interventional study, at Baseline Study Visit (BSV) subjects will be screened and consented. Eligible subjects will undergo imaging with the DeepView device. Pre- and post-debridement images will be obtained (if debridement performed per SOC), as well as reviewing medical history and physical assessments. Additional Study Visits (SVs) will be performed when patient returns to the clinic for Routine Clinic Visit for up to 12 weeks or wound closure. During these visits DeepView imaging will occur pre- and post-debridement, and the status of the subject's treatment will be recorded.
This study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of Nocardia rubra Cell Wall Skeleton (NCWS) in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcer wounds. The study was a prospective, randomized, controlled, multicentre study . The subjects were randomly divided into two groups: NCWS group and control group（silver ions dressing）, with a total of 116 cases and 58 cases in each group. Patients in the NCWS group received nocardia rubra cell wall skeleton for external use, in parallel with silver ions dressing treatment. The efficacy and side effects were observed, with a primary endpoint of 30-days wound healing rate.
The study will examine the effectiveness of a decellularized dermal matrix (i.e., DermGEN™) in improving wound healing, quality of life and associated costs of treatment of DFUs in First Nations people living in the Northwestern Ontario Communities. First Nations people with active diabetic foot (DFU) ulcer attending a wound care clinic located at the Rainy River district office. An interventional, two-arm, randomized, prospective study of (1) standard of care (control) vs. (2) DermGEN™ - a decellularized dermal matrix (treatment) will be used in the treatment and management of DFU. Patients will be randomized to each arm (n=60 per arm) based on power calculations using data from our Pilot study.
A Prospective, Double-blind, Multi-center, Randomized, Parallel-group safety and efficacy study of adipose-derived regenerative cells (ADRCs) in the treatment of patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFU).
The main purpose of this exploratory clinical investigation is to study the binding of bacteria and fungi from hard-to-heal wounds to the DACC-coated dressings.
Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) are one of the complications of diabetes mellitus resulting from multiple causes such as neuropathy, ischemia, and infection that contribute to morbidity and amputation. The prevalence of DFU has been estimated to be 3 to 5 times higher than the overall population. Minor amputations (digital or transmetatarsal) are the treatment of choice in case of irreversible DFU. However, many minor amputations do not heal and require re-amputation. Improvements of healing rate after adipose stem cells (ASCs) injection through micro-fragmented autologous adipose tissue of the amputation stump following minor DFU amputation were demonstrated. The use of ASCs obtained from the superficial enhanced fluid fat injection technique (SEFFICARE) to improve the healing process after DFUs minor amputation is the object of the present study. A single-center non-randomized prospective observational study will be performed. The recruited patients will undergo local injection of superficial enhanced fluid fat after a lower limb minor amputation. Laboratory analysis to evaluate the composition of the tissue and stromal cell components harvested from adipose tissue with SEFFICARE system by using digital droplets PCR. These data will serve for making associations between the clinical outcome and characteristics of the cell population administered to each patient.
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
Study type: Randomized, double blinded, interventional, single-site study. Two groups: Active receiving RIC therapy from the LifeCuff device and standard of care treatment without RIC. Study population: Adults (18 to 90) with diabetes myelitis presenting with diabetic foot ulcers. Randomization and sample size: Subjects will be allocated on a 1:1 ratio, yielding a minimum per protocol population (PP Population) of 15 patients in the Active group and 15 in the control group. Study timeline: Total amount of time from the Screening Visit to the Final Visit is approximately 16 weeks. For patients who meet inclusion criteria, they are randomized into Active or Control treatment groups. In addition they are stratified into groups based on wound etiology: neuropathic (defined as insensate at 2 or more of 5 sites verified by insensitivity to the 5.07 Semmes-Weinstein 10 g monofilament), ischemic (defined as ABI of 0.7 neuro-ischemic (meeting both of above criteria) Subjects will present at DMU Foot and Ankle Clinic on weeks 0, 3, 6, 9, and 12 for the following measurements: 40mL venous blood draw (VEGF, SDF1a) 2mm punch biopsy (CD34+) Local wound perfusion (Laser Speckle[FK2] ) Ulcer size measured by digital planimetry (TissueAnalytics)
