Filter by:202 Diabetic foot ulcers will be cleaned with either Hypochlorous Acid, HClO or Polyhexamethylene biguanide, PHMB twice a week until healed or 24 weeks. Primary objective is to find out if cleaning DFU with HClO is more effective in obtaining complete healing than PHMB.
The purpose of the study was designed leg resistance training combined with breathing approach, and evaluated its effect on wound healing, blood sugar control and quality of life in type 2 diabetic patients with foot ulcers.
The aim of this feasibility study is to evaluate a 12-week exercise intervention in people with an active diabetic foot ulcer through pre-defined research progression criteria (participant recruitment and retention, duration of the collection of outcome measures, adherence to the exercise programme, and adverse events), besides participant and physiotherapist feedback, self-reported outcomes and objective measurements in preparation for a potential future RCT. The primary study hypothesis is that exercise therapy for people with an active diabetic foot ulcer will have high participant recruitment and adherence to treatment and that it does not affect wound healing negatively.
Procenta® has been successful in facilitating closure of non-healing diabetic ulcers in patients where proper wound care management/practice has failed along with other allo- and xenografts. In each individual case study where diabetes mellitus was pathological, unique wound morphologies with high variability in all three dimensions showed significant progress or were fully closed after at least one application of Procenta®. In the present study, the investigators seek to investigate the efficacy of the product over a 90-day treatment time-course with a larger sample size of patients suffering from non-healing wounds due to diabetes mellitus types I or II (diabetes mellitus). As a result, the investigators hope to better understand the potential and limitations of the product under these conditions with the anticipation that a significant number of patients will recover, avoid amputation, and return to a normal daily life.
Prospective, monocentric, pathophysiological study, comparing 3 parallel groups: healthy controls; patients with diabetes and without DFU; patients with diabetes and with DFU. To address secondary objectives, samples from a fourth group will be collected.
A Prospective, Double-blind, Multi-center, Randomized, Parallel-group safety and efficacy study of adipose-derived regenerative cells (ADRCs) in the treatment of patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFU).
The United States Department of Veterans Affairs spends an estimated $1.5 billion a year on healthcare for patients with diabetes. The prevalence and complications of diabetes increase with age. Therefore, with the aging of the US and Veteran populations, there is an expectation of increased healthcare costs associated with treating diabetes and the associated complications of this disorder. One common complication is the diabetic foot ulcer. Diabetic foot ulcers are expensive to treat, can take a long time to heal and result in a decrease in patient quality of life. Patients remain susceptible to developing more foot ulcers over time. The goal of this project is to reduce the time it takes to heal a diabetic foot ulcer, increase the time between episodes of ulceration and improve the quality of life for diabetic foot ulcer patients.
The Biorepository will guide the Diabetic Foot Consortium (DFC) activities for collection and storing biosamples and data from participants enrolled in other current and future DFC research studies.
The main purpose of this exploratory clinical investigation is to study the binding of bacteria and fungi from hard-to-heal wounds to the DACC-coated dressings.
In this study, a novel placental membrane product Matrion™ (LifeNet Health, Inc., Virginia Beach, VA) will be used as a treatment for subjects with diabetic foot ulcers. Matrion is composed of placental membrane derived from donated human birth tissue containing both the innermost amniotic layer and the outermost chorionic layer, inclusive of the trophoblast layer. Matrion is minimally processed and disinfected using a proprietary decellularization technology and terminally sterilized that safely renders the placental membrane acellular and sterile for its intended surgical applications.
