Filter by:This study was planned to standardize foot care behaviors with a patient-participated care package approach, to ensure healing of existing wounds, and to evaluate the effect on foot care behaviors to prevent the development of new diabetic foot ulcers. The sample of the study consisted of a total of 97 patients, 49 patients in the care package group and 48 patients in the control group. Hypotheses of the Study H1. The foot care behaviors of patients who receive a patient-participatory care package approach to diabetic foot ulcer prevention will be higher than those of patients who do not receive a care package. H2. Patient-involved care package approach prevents the development of new diabetic foot ulcers. H3. Patient-involved care package approach provides healing of existing diabetic ulcers.
This randomized controlled study evaluates the adjuvant use of Derm-Maxx in patients with diabetic foot ulcers
The purpose of this study is to determine how well multiple CAMPs (Cellular, Acellular and Matrix-Like Products) and Standard of Care work when compared to Standard of Care alone in achieving complete closure of hard-to-heal diabetic foot and venous leg ulcers.
Conventionally diabetic foot is treated with moist wound dressing and antibiotics but recent studies show that VAC dressing gives better results as compared to conventional saline dressing in treating Diabetic Foot Ulcers. This may decrease amputations rate, work load on hospitals, hospital stay, repeated hospital admissions, unemployment and can improve patient's quality of life. Objective of the study was to compare the effectiveness of Vacuum Assisted Closure therapy with saline dressing in management of diabetic foot ulcers in terms of granulation tissue formation and wound healing.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of four dehydrated complete human placental membrane, also defined as Cellular, Acellular, Matrix-like Products/skin substitutes, plus SOC versus SOC alone in achieving complete closure of hard-to-heal diabetic foot ulcers over 12 weeks using a modified platform trial design.
This is a multi-center, prospective, two-part, controlled study to determine the percentage of participants with complete ulcer closure of a target DFU at Week 12 following treatment with Dermacyte Matrix or SOC.
The purpose of the study is design and use a telemedicine platform which integrates video-chat, pre-programmed interactive game-based foot, and ankle exercise modules, and real-time quantitative performance metrics displayed to the clinician to improve patient's perfusion to the lower extremity, improve diabetic wound healing and prevent muscle loss in the lower extremity.This is a cross sectional and comparative feasibility study. It is designed to explore acceptability, feasibility and proof of concept/ .
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using perinatal tissue allografts improves healing of chronic, non-healing foot ulcers in diabetic patients. The main question that this study aims to answer is: Does the use of perinatal tissue allografts in conjunction with standard of care wound management techniques result in a higher percentage of patients achieving complete wound closure (i.e. healing) as compared to patients being treated with standard of care alone after 6 and 12 weeks of treatment. One ulcer on each participant's foot will receive weekly 1) applications of perinatal tissue allografts and standard of care wound management or 2) standard of care wound management alone. Pictures of the ulcer and measurements of its size will be measured every week to track its healing progress over a total treatment period of 12 weeks. Additionally, the participants will be asked to fill out a questionnaire about the wound impacts their life.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if use of Orion TM, a dual-layer amniotic membrane allograft, in addition to standard wound care treatment can improve patient outcomes for people over the age of 50 with diabetic foot ulcers. The main question it aims to answer is the incidence of complete wound closure at the end of 12 weeks of treatment. Researchers will compare the outcomes between a group of people treated with standard wound care and another group treated with standard wound care in addition to the amniotic membrane allograft to see if the amniotic membrane allograft improves patient outcomes. Participants will visit their doctor weekly over a 12 week period, as per standard diabetic foot ulcer treatment procedures, and fill out a questionnaire measuring quality of life.
Diabetic foot ulcer affects 10.5% of the Brazilian/world population, compromising the quality of life of these patients and burdening the public health system. Studies show that antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) accelerates its repair, however, there is not enough evidence for decision-making in clinical practice, which prevents this treatment from being used on a large scale. Controlled and randomized clinical studies are needed to increase the level of evidence on this subject, promoting the improvement of the quality of life of people affected by diabetic foot ulcers. The aim of this study is to analyze the action of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy on the quality of the wound and tissue repair process using the Bates-Jensen scale in people affected by diabetic foot wounds.
