Filter by:To follow the effectiveness of Sorbion Dressing in the treatment of highly exuding venous leg ulcers.
The intent of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety of the injection composed of autologous bone marrow derived endothelial cells (BM-ECs) and platelet-rich plasma extract (PRPE) for the treatment of critical limb ischemia.
This study evaluates the addition of polidocanol endovenous microfoam (PEM) to compression therapy to determine effectiveness in improving the healing of venous leg ulcers (VLUs) in adults with severe venous disease of the great saphenous vein (GSV). All participants will receive treatment with Varithena and compression therapy. The purpose of this study is to assess whether the use of PEM to correct superficial axial and varicose vein reflux is effective in improving healing of VLUs, over treatment with compression alone.
Chronic leg ulcers are associated with decreased quality of life and an increased mortality. In many cases these ulcers are treated conservatively and the healing time can be several months. In this open randomized clinical trial we will examine if we can accelerate wound healing when using autologous stromal vascular fraction as an adjunct to standard wound care.
The purpose of this study is to determine if VF001-DP improves wound healing in chronic venous leg ulcers compared to standard care only.
The aim of this trial is to demonstrate the effectiveness of complete wound healing in a prospective, open-label, randomized trial in which venous leg ulcers (VLU)n will be treated using Aurix and compared to patients receiving undefined Usual and Customary Care (UCC)
The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical outcomes of TruSkin® and an Active Comparator in patients with chronic venous leg ulcers.
The investigation is designed as an open, randomized, non-inferiority, multi-centre investigation. 212 evaluable subjects will be randomised. Subjects to be included will suffer from an exuding venous or mixed ulcer of predominantly venous origin. Subjects will either be randomized to Exufiber®Gelling Fibre Dressing or Aquacel®Extra Hydrofiber® Dressing with Strengthening Fibre using, centralized randomization
Chronic venous leg ulcers (VLU) are painful, debilitating wounds that place a significant burden on the patient, their family, and healthcare resources. Treating VLU can present a significant challenge to clinicians, who currently have a limited range of treatments at their disposal. The mainstay of treatment is compression bandaging, ambulation and elevation at rest. In addition to the aforementioned, intermittent pneumatic compression has also been utilised1. When applied to the leg or foot intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices intermittently inflate and deflate to increase venous return. These devices can be uncomfortable to wear, and compliance can be inhibited because of size, weight and external power source that limit the patient's mobility. In patients who cannot walk, or in those who are unable to tolerate compression bandaging, ulcers may deteriorate and never heal. Accordingly, there is a need for novel, alternative devices or strategies that can be used to complement or replace compression bandage therapy.
Leg ulcers (UDJ) is defined as a chronic skin wound, lasting for more than 4 to 6 weeks, between the knee and foot, and with no tendency to spontaneous healing. In 2002, the prevalence of leg ulcers is estimated between 0.5% and 1% of the general population and 3% in subjects over 65 years. The sex ratio is generally 3 females to 1 male. It is in most cases a complication of vascular disease, usually venous (70 to 90%), then blood (5-15%), mixed (5-10%) and microcirculatory. In three quarter of cases, the UDJ is a chronic painful wound to the social repercussions (sleep disorders, eating, work stoppages) and major economic (individual and collective costs of absorptions). The treatment of a chronic wound uses validated techniques for several years as the skin graft in tablets, associated with the etiological treatment. The latest recommendations HAS implemented to date from 2006 and concerns the management of leg ulcers predominantly venous. Few articles in the literature address the possibility of an analgesic effect of the transplant pellets in the treatment of chronic ulcers algic. In 2008, a Swedish article, evaluated pain before and after skin grafting in carriers of leg ulcer patients and feet and showed that there was a reduction in pain post transplant. We propose to evaluate the analgesic effect of the skin graft in pellet on a patient population having one or more Algic ulcers.
