Filter by:The rise in diabetes incidence has led to a corresponding increase in diabetes-related complications. Diabetic foot ulcers, a severe consequence of diabetes, have substantial impacts on patients, the social environment, overall well-being, and nursing procedures. Given this context, there is a clear necessity for interventions that motivate patients to adopt beneficial health behaviors and educate them in effectively managing diabetes-related complications. This study seeks to investigate the impact of Watson's motivational interviewing method, which is grounded in the human care theory, on enhancing treatment adherence, self-efficacy, and satisfaction levels among individuals suffering from diabetic foot ulcers. Hypotheses of The Research H0: There is no difference in self-efficacy for diabetic foot care, diabetic foot care behavior, treatment adherence, and satisfaction between individuals with diabetic foot ulcers who receive Watson's human care theory-based motivational interviewing and diabetic foot care education, and those who receive standard education. H1: There is a difference in self-efficacy for diabetic foot care between individuals with diabetic foot ulcers who receive Watson's human care theory-based motivational interviewing and diabetic foot care education and those who receive standard education. H2: There is a difference in diabetic foot care behavior between individuals with diabetic foot ulcers who receive Watson's human care theory-based motivational interviewing and diabetic foot care education and those who receive standard education. H3: There is a difference in treatment adherence between individuals with diabetic foot ulcers who receive Watson's human care theory-based motivational interviewing and diabetic foot care education and those who receive standard education. H4: There is a difference in satisfaction between individuals with diabetic foot ulcers who receive Watson's human care theory-based motivational interviewing and diabetic foot care education and those who receive standard education.
The goal of this multi-center,randomized, placebo controlled, evaluator-blinded study is to assess the efficacy and safety of NOX1416 in the treatment of chronic, non-healing, diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). Subjects will be randomized to receive treatment with NOX1416 or placebo as an adjunct to SOC. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the clinical benefit of daily NOX1416, as an adjunct to standard of care (SOC), in the treatment of chronic, non-healing DFUs. The secondary objective is to demonstrate efficacy, safety and tolerability of NOX1416 as adjunct to SOC. Each site will assign a physician (or designee) to serve as the "blinded-evaluator" to be responsible for assessing the study endpoints such as wound measurements and complete wound closure. The blinded-evaluator will not be involved in the clinical care of the subject.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a topical drug in patients with mild infections of their diabetic foot ulcer. The main questions it aims to answer are: What strength does the drug need to be in order to make the infection better? How frequently does the drug need to be applied in order to make the infection better? Participants will be asked to apply the medicine on their foot ulcer twice a day for 2 weeks and remain off of that foot during that time. Participants will receive the medication either once a day or twice a day, in either a 5% or 10% gel, or placebo. Researchers will compare the 5% and 10% gels to placebo to see if the infection improves.
Prospective cohort studies through clinical trials. Obtained a large amount of real-world data to explore the efficacy of PLCL/Fg dressings for specific clinical applications. Published 1 relevant SCIE paper. Provide a large amount of data support for the application of PLCL/Fg dressing in diabetic foot ulcer wound repair through basic experimental and clinical experimental studies. It can provide a practical and effective biomaterial for the treatment of clinical skin wound structure and function reconstruction, make the patient's wound healing as soon as possible, benefit the general public, reduce medical expenditure, reduce the burden on the society, lay the foundation for the industrialization and marketization of national innovative medical devices, and help to improve the international status and value of the application.
This is an Observational Device Registry Study of CERAMENT|G in normal use in accordance with the IFU. It will run for a period of three years from enrolment of the first patient into the Study at each Site, before being subject to review. A Device Registry is a form of observational study that concerns the performance of a device in normal use. It is intended to collect data that is reflective of 'real world' device performance.
The objective of the study is to develop a peer support program that helps improve ulcer care in patients with a diabetic foot ulcer (DFU).Diabetes, peripheral arterial disease (PAD), foot ulceration, and subsequent amputation are unevenly patterned in terms of racial/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, health insurance, and geographic area. The project will identify opportunities to reduce health disparities among economically marginalized patients regarding DFU outcomes.
Purpose of this phase 1/2a study is to assess the safety and efficacy of administration of allogeneic human oral mucosal stem cells (hOMSCs) in patients suffering from chronic diabetic foot ulcers (DFU).
The TriO FITT device is designed to improve the symptoms of chronic diabetic ulcers. The mechanism of action of the device optimizes and combines the administration known supproting treatments to chronic diabetic ulcers. The treatment is astimated to improve the wound conditions of acute and chronic diabetic wounds.
Background: People with diabetes and either current or previous diabetic foot ulcer disease (DFUD) are at very high risk for adverse cardiovascular events including heart attacks and strokes. Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are a class of medications that have shown to be very effective in reducing heart disease and event risk. However, one recent study found that SGLT2i's may increase minor amputation risk in those with DFUD, though this finding has not been replicated in other similar studies. However, as a result, there has been limited further investigation into this issue and as such the use of SGLT2i's in those with DFUD remains a contentious issue, despite their potential for significantly reducing cardiovascular disease risk in this population. In the absence of further randomised controlled trials investigating the use of SGLT2is in these populations, there is a need for clinical guidelines advising on their use based on expert clinical consensus, including specific criteria or scenarios in which they should or should not be used. The Delphi methodology is an iterative survey technique that uses expert opinion from various relevant backgrounds and experiences to generate a consensus based upon various statements and/or scenarios. Aim: The aim of this study is to use the Delphi technique to generate expert consensus-based clinical guidelines on the use of SGLT2i's in those with diabetes and DFUD. Methods: This is a Delphi technique-based study using a purposive sample of convenience. Consensus development methods will be used to generate clinical guidelines, endorsed by key clinical groups, on the use of SGLT2i's in patients with diabetic foot ulcer disease, including acknowledgement of specific scenarios or patient characteristics that may influence these guidelines. The consensus group will consist of n=20 healthcare practitioners, including GPs, secondary care diabetologists, foot care specialists, cardiologists and pharmacists in order to ensure a breadth of expertise and input. Two rounds of the Delphi consensus process will take place, in order to iteratively develop the consensus-based clinical guidelines. This process is expected to take 4-6 months. The analysis will be on-going throughout the study and completed within 3 months of the last questionnaire round of the Delphi process.
Abstract Objective To verify cutoff value of ankle brachial pressure index at which diabetic foot ulcers get benefit from vacuum assisted closure application and to assess impact of its application on ankle brachial pressure index value in the presence of peripheral arterial disease. Methods An observational descriptive prospective analytic study had been performed.56 patients were enrolled in the study. All patients had three sessions of vacuum-assisted closure application. Debridement was done when indicated. Ulcer dimensions were measured before and after each session, while ankle brachial pressure index was measured before the first session .
