Filter by:The investigators aimed to elucidate the effects of UAW debridement on cellular proliferation and dermal repair in complicated diabetic foot ulcers as compared to diabetic foot ulcers receiving surgical/sharp wound debridement. A randomized controlled trial was performed involving outpatients with complicated diabetic foot ulcers that either received surgical debridement or UAW debridement every week during a six-week treatment period.
The incidence of diabetic foot ulcer recurrence in one year can reach 35%. Plantar foot diabetic foot ulcer is the most frequently diabetic foot ulcer recurrence. The recurrence incidence can occur at least 14 days after the diabetic foot ulcer has healed. Physical activity and exercise are highly recommended for the prevention of diabetic foot ulcers. The study about the form of foot exercise to prevent a diabetic foot ulcer recurrence is still unclear. The major hypothesis was there is an effect of self-structured foot exercise on the plantar foot diabetic ulcer recurrences. The minor hypothesis was (1) The improvement of HbA1c, ABI, diabetic neuropathy examination score, callus, and walking speed can decrease the incidence of plantar foot diabetic ulcer (2) a self-structured foot exercise can decrease the incidence and the speed of incidence plantar doot diabetic ulcer recurrence. Participants were randomized into two groups: Exercise group (n=25) and control group (n=25). The exercise is the combination of flexibility and resistance exercise using a flexible band in 24 weeks. The incidence of plantar diabetic foot ulcers was monitored through the research process.
The purpose of this study is to 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.
This is a follow-up study to evaluate the safety for the subjects with ALLO-ASC-DFU treatment in phase 3 clinical trial (ALLO-ASC-DFU-301) for 24 months
The study is a prospective, single arm, multicenter efficacy study, consisting of 60 subjects who will complete the study (note: if any patients are lost to follow-up or withdrawn, enrollment will increase to compensate for loss of these subjects). The subjects will receive up to 16 RD1 applications. In case of complete healing, subject will be called for one confirmatory visit two weeks later or before discharge from the SNF (the earlier of the two). Subject data will be kept in each site's records. All diabetic subjects' glycemic management will be performed by a qualified physician. All subjects will have wound care specialist or wound surgeon or dermatologist involved in their wound care
This is a multicenter study of patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) to develop and validate potential tissue-based biomarkers that predict DFU wound recurrence. Trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL) will be measured on the closed wound site and a location similar to the wound site (reference site). Participants will be enrolled within two weeks after closure of their DFU. Complete wound healing will be verified at a second visit two weeks later and this visit will start the 16 week timeline where participants will be followed weekly by phone until the earliest of DFU wound recurrence or 16 weeks. Participants who experience a DFU wound recurrence and a subset of participants who do not experience a DFU wound recurrence by week 16 will be asked to attend one final visit.
The KereFish study is a randomized controlled study to study the efficacy of Kerecis Omega3 Wound on deep diabetic ulcers. This study is probably the first in his field: in this one, the Kerecis Omega3 Wound dies are used on the types of wounds for which they are ultimately intended. This study aims to document the cost benefits of earlier closure of severe diabetic wounds, or the change of the deep and chronic wound into a smaller and shallower ulcer, and to radically alter its prognosis. The study, carried out in France, uses the pre-existing home nursing system with the transmission of photographs to the reference centre. The study was largely designed to ensure transparency of the financial calculations involved.
To evaluate the effectiveness of a discharge planning using the strategy of motivational interviewing among patients with diabetic foot ulcers
The objective of this study is to determine if patients with lower extremity wounds in rural communities who undergo specialty referral through telemedicine have expedited care compared to patients who are treated through standard in person referral.
The primary objective of this study is to examine the feasibility of a Facebook group-based program to support adults with diabetes in their foot self-care and prevention of foot ulcers. The sub-objectives are: 1. To determine the recruitment and retention rate of participants in the study. 2. To assess the acceptability of the Facebook group program among participants. 3. To determine the level and pattern of engagement by the participants within the Facebook group platform. 4. To determine the efficacy of the Facebook group program and how it works to improve diabetic foot care-related outcomes.
