The Investigators plan to evaluate healing in two cohorts of patients with diabetic foot wounds (n=20) that receive optimal treatment including serial wound debridement and off-loading with a boot or postop shoe and AmnioEXCEL+. In one cohort, AmnioEXCEL+ will be applied weekly at study visits and in the second cohort, AmnioEXCEL+ will be applied maximum every 2 weeks (PRN, in the case that the wound requires debridement at a visit not intended for AE+ application, the wound will be treated as SOC). In addition, the Investigators will collect data on other potential confounding factors that could affect healing such as antibiotic, anti-fungal and anti-infective medications, tobacco, comorbidities, diabetes control, infection, perfusion, and activity. Wound healing, including wound size and adverse events will be evaluated.
Patients who underwent surgery for diabetic foot were divided into three groups: sciatic nerve block (Group B), continuous nerve catheter (Group C) . Group B patients underwent preoperative popliteal ultrasound guided peripheral nerve blockage. 20 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine was administered. In Group C patients, 20% bupivacaine 20 ml was applied to the sciatic nerve with a peripheral nerve catheter and continuous infusion was started with patient controlled analgesia device.
- The study is a multi-center, prospective, randomized, controlled, single blinded clinical study consisting of 150 subjects from up to 20 centers. - The subjects are randomized to receive 1 of 2 treatments, either with ActiGraft and standard of care (SOC) or with SOC alone. - The target ulcers are evaluated weekly by the investigator. The subject is treated once a week, to receive weekly applications of the ActiGraft + SOC or SOC until for up to 12 weeks or until the study ulcer has completely healed (i.e., 100% closure as assessed by the Investigator and blinded assessor and confirmed 2 weeks later at the healing confirmation visit (HCV). One additional visit per week is optional for both arms, for the purpose of changing only (1) the secondary dressing in the ActiGraft arm or (2) change the standard of care dressing in the control arm. - Immediately after the study ulcer is confirmed as completely healed, subjects will enter the 12-week Follow-up Phase. During the Follow-Up phase, subjects will be evaluated twice during the first month and then monthly for two additional visits every 4 weeks until the completion of the 12-week Follow-up Phase.
This is a prospective trial designed to evaluate the use of Meso Wound Matrix (DSM Biomedical, Exton, PA) in Wagner grade 1 and 2 DFUs.
It is hypothesized that application at 4-week or greater intervals of the human placental umbilical cord tissue TTAX01 to the surface of a well debrided, complex diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) will, with concomitant management of infection, will result in a higher rate of wounds showing complete healing within 26 weeks of initiating therapy, compared with standard care alone. This confirmatory Phase 3 study examines a population of diabetic foot ulcer patients having adequate perfusion, with or without neuropathy, and a high suspicion of associated osteomyelitis in a complex, high grade wound.
Patients with diabetes, hammer, mallet and claw toes and impending ulcers associated with hammer mallet and claw toes will be randomized to tenotomy (cutting) of flexor tendons to the afflicted toes, done by needle and standard offloading or offloading alone. Impending ulcers are defined as callus or nail changes that are known pre-stages to ulcers. The effects of the surgery on incidence of ulcers associated with the named deformities, and rate of complications associated with the surgery.
1. Aim Patients with diabetes, hammer, mallet and claw toes and ulcers associated with the named deformities will be randomized to tenotomy (cutting) of flexor tendons to the afflicted toes, done by needle and standard offloading or offloading alone. The effects of the surgery on time to healing of ulcers associated with the named deformities, recurrence of the ulcers, and rate of complications associated with the surgery. In addition to this all patients gait and balance will be examined before start of the study, and after 3 months, to se if there is an effect of the surgery on patients gait and balance. 2. Method A prospective randomized clinical study, which means a study were patients will be allocated randomly to surgery and standard care or standard care alone. Patients will attend a total of up to 14 visits over a 12-month period. 3.
Diabetic foot is defined by World Health Organization as a syndrome in which the presence of neuropathy, ischemia and infection cause tissue damage or ulcers from minor trauma. This condition can be controlled in its early stages with conservative treatment, which is effective in preventing infections and amputations. However, even with the new knowledge acquired and the development of new therapies, the specialist often faces wounds that do not improve despite the proper treatment, so therapies have been sought to help the healing of these Ulcers. Growing evidence suggests that healing of chronic diabetic foot ulcers depends on growth factors and that the therapeutic use of these in wounds has the potential to accelerate their healing in conjunction with wound care Conventional. This study evaluates the effect of plasma rich in autologous growth factors on healing chronic ulcers of diabetic origin. This is a randomized clinical trial that evaluates two study groups. Control group in which advanced weekly healing will be performed while the post-advanced healing study group will be performed the intradermal application of plasma rich in growth factors. These manoeuvres will be performed once a week for four weeks and at the end of the study the results in both groups will be checked. Both groups will also evaluate, frequency and intensity of pain, quality of life, histological changes in ulcers and metabolic evaluation
Study Objective: The objective of this Phase 1 open-label study is to establish the safety and tolerability of Corlicyte mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in the treatment of patients with chronic diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs).
