NCT ID: NCT02071979 Terminated - Clinical trials for Diabetic Foot Ulcers

Registry Trial of the Effectiveness of Platelet Rich Plasma for Chronic Non-Healing Wounds

CMS
Start date: April 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study will examine differences in the process of wound-healing in patients treated with platelet rich plasma (a concentration of proteins derived from a patients own blood) applied to the wound as a gel; injected into the wound or surrounding tissue; or both; compared to patients treated with usual medical treatment . This study seeks to enroll patients who are 18 or older with a non-healing skin wound that is at least 30 days old. Only patients with Diabetic Foot Ulcers, Venous Ulcers, or Pressure Ulcers will be included in the study.

NCT ID: NCT01433159 Terminated - Spinal Cord Injury Clinical Trials

Comparison of HP011-101 to Standard Care for Stage I-II Pressure Ulcers in Subjects With Spinal Cord Injury

Start date: September 2011
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The trial will compare the effects of 14 days treatment with HP011 101 versus Standard Care in subjects with Stage I or II pressure ulcers as a complication of spinal cord injury, measured as change from baseline in composite wound bed scores of the PUSH 3.0 tool.

NCT ID: NCT00762138 Terminated - Wounds Clinical Trials

The AutoloGelâ„¢ Post-Market Surveillance (TAPS) Program

TAPS
Start date: September 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

AutoloGelâ„¢ Post-Market Surveillance Program Purpose:Evaluate the incidence of hematologic and immunologic adverse events, including coagulopathies in patients with wounds to which AutoloGelâ„¢ was applied. Design:Prospective, open label, patient registry. Investigator Sites: 3 Enrollment Size: 300 Subject Population: Patients with exuding wounds, such as leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, and diabetic ulcers and for the management of mechanically or surgically-debrided wounds. Primary Objective Safety: Assess the incidence of hematologic (coagulopathies), immunologic (including anaphylaxis) and other adverse events associated with the application of AutoloGel on exuding wounds, such as leg ulcers, pressure ulcers and diabetic ulcers and during the management of mechanically or surgically-debrided wounds. Primary Safety Endpoint: Absence of coagulopathies caused by inhibitors to coagulation Factor V as determined by a significant prolongation of the prothrombin (PT) time and confirmed by severe depletion of Factor V activity with a positive Bethesda Assay for anti-Factor V functional inhibitors.

NCT ID: NCT00502372 Terminated - Pressure Ulcers Clinical Trials

Effect of an Oral Supplement Enriched in Amino Acids and the Leucine Metabolite B-hydroxy B-methylbutyrate (HMB)

Start date: December 2008
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The focus of this study is to look at the role of nutrition in the healing of pressure ulcers. The purpose of this study is to test whether the rate of healing of pressure ulcers is increased in those patients receiving a nutritional supplement of amino acids and the leucine metabolite, B-hydroxy-B-methylbutyrate is enhanced when compared to control patients receiving a supplement containing only one of the proteins in the experimental supplement

NCT ID: NCT00269100 Terminated - Bacteremia Clinical Trials

Prevention of Bacteremia Induced by Debridement of Pressure Ulcer

Start date: n/a
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to analyse bacteremia induced by debridement of pressure ulcers in patients in the complex nursing department.

NCT ID: NCT00105859 Terminated - Spinal Cord Injury Clinical Trials

Preventing Pressure Ulcers in Veterans With Spinal Cord Injury (SCI)

Start date: n/a
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Pressure ulcers are a serious, costly, and life-long complication of spinal cord injury (SCI). Pressure ulcer prevalence has been estimated at between 17 and 33% among persons with SCI residing in the community. Epidemiological studies have found that 36-50% of all persons with SCI who develop pressure ulcers will develop a recurrence within the first year after initial healing (Carlson et al., 1992; Fuhrer et al., 1993; Goldstein, 1998; Niazi et al., 1997; Salzberg et al. 1998). Recurrence rates have ranged from 21% to 79%, regardless of treatment (Schryvers et al., 2000; Goodman et al., 1999; Niazi et al., 1997). Pressure ulcer treatment is expensive. Surgical costs associated with pressure ulcer treatment can exceed $70,000 per case (Braun et al., 1992). VA administrative (National Patient Care Database, NPCD) data indicate that 41% of inpatient days in the SCI population are accounted for by either primary or secondary diagnoses of pressure ulcers or 23% of SCI inpatient days if restricted to primary diagnoses of pressure ulcers. Pressure ulcer recurrence has been associated with many factors including previous pressure ulcer surgery (Niazi et al., 1997). Although little data exist describing the factors associated with recurrence following surgery, some investigators reported recurrence rates of 11%-29% in cases with post-operative complications and 6% to 61% in cases without post-operative complications (Mandrekas & Mastorakos, 1992; Relander & Palmer, 1988; Disa et al., 1992). In a retrospective study of 48 veterans with SCI, investigators reported a 79% recurrence rate following surgery (Goodman et al., 1999).
