View clinical trials related to Diabetic Foot Ulcer.
Filter by:Patients with diabetes should be thoroughly examined before they are provided with insoles and shoes. In the study the feet are examined with the help of a new software, the D-Foot. D-Foot includes questions and surveys. The aim of the of the study is evaluate how the patients experience the visit at the department of Prosthetics & Orthotics based on the digital foot check.
The investigators plan to do a retrospective chart review of 500 patients admitted to the hospital between January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2015 with diabetic foot infections. The investigators will define a positive case of osteomyelitis as bone with positive bacterial cultures or histologic finding of acute or chronic osteomyelitis. Levels of inflammatory biomarkers (CRP, ESR) will be collected from the charts from the first time of diagnosis. Because wound healing, biomarker levels and resolution of infection are clearly affected by other factors such as demographics, medical/surgical history, social history, medications, laboratory results, peripheral arterial disease, wound severity, and treatment factors such as type of antibiotics, off-loading, debridement and vascular surgery interventions these will also be collected. The investigators will collect this clinical data for both cohorts.
The purpose of the current Study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of Galnobax® plus Standard of Care versus only Standard of Care, in treating Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFU). In addition, Study is designed to investigate the safety of Galnobax® vehicle for establishing non-deleterious effects of Vehicle on wound healing in the Subjects with DFU. The study is being conducted in 350 subjects being recruited in about 30 centers in India.
This trial will examine the feasibility of conducting a definitive randomized clinical trial that tests whether inforatio technique will reduce time to healing of diabetic foot ulcers. Inforatio technique is a procedure where small punch biopsies are taken from the wound bed near the edge of the wound. With this technique, the investigators wish to initiate an acute inflammatory response that increases the generation of granulation tissue with subsequent healing by scar formation. Thus, the investigators hypothesize that inforatio technique will promote healing of diabetic foot ulcers. Based on clinical experience, the investigators have previously detected a reduction in time to healing as an unexpected effect when multiple punch biopsies are taken from the wound bed of diabetic foot ulcers. To the knowledge of the investigators, methods similar to the inforatio technique has not previously been studied.
The investigators plan to do a retrospective chart review on patients admitted to Parkland Hospital with diabetic foot infections, ulcers, and bone injuries from 2005 (5 years prior to the start of the diabetic limb preservation team) to present day. The investigators will collect information on demographics, medical/surgical history, social history, medications, laboratory results, peripheral arterial disease, wound severity, and treatment factors such as type of antibiotics, off-loading, debridement, wound healing, surgery interventions, complications, recurrence, and history and physical characteristics and exam from inpatient and outpatient encounters. This will be identified by current procedural terminology (CPT) codes for foot and leg amputations, and lower extremity revascularization procedures. Clinic visits will be identified to podiatry/foot wound, vascular surgery, invasive cardiology, general surgery, and physical therapy wound care in addition to inpatient encounters of these patients to determine the full scope of care received and to compare resources utilization before and after implementation of the diabetic limb preservation team.
The investigators plan to do a retrospective chart review on patients who underwent laser treatment for their foot ulcer at the UT Southwestern wound clinic.
The investigators want to obtain the clinical profile, hematological profile, and biochemical profile from diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) patient.
A Multicentre Randomized Controlled Trial to Investigate the Effect of Natrox Topical Oxygen Wound Therapy on the Healing rates of Diabetic Foot Ulcers.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, sequential dose escalation study in diabetic subjects with a diabetic lower leg or foot ulcer. All subjects will receive standard-of-care ulcer treatment from screening through the last study visit.
This study is a prospective, multi-center, randomized controlled trial designed to collect patient outcome data on a commercially available human autologous homologous skin construct with SOC dressing compared to SOC dressings alone in the treatment of Diabetic Foot Wounds.
