Filter by:The goal of this study is to test FOOTFIT and enhanced FOOTFIT+, home-based mobile health (mHealth) physical activity (PA) interventions for a minimally ambulatory, chronically-ill, population with leg ulcers. A highly sensitive clinically designed Bluetooth® enabled accelerometer and tracking device (BEAT) worn on the foot during a progressive and evidence-based non-exertive leg conditioning activities for lower leg function (CALF) captures minute foot movements and sends the data to a Smartphone. This six-week feasibility study will compare FOOTFIT to FOOTFIT+, with the added connectivity feature, to promote patient-provider communication, evaluate adherence to PA, and assess signals of efficacy on functional outcomes in a very low fitness population.
The goal of this study is to test MUSTCOOL, a home-based self-monitoring and self-management ulcer prevention intervention for patients with newly healed chronic venous leg and diabetic foot ulcers. Almost 90% of ulcers recur within 3 months of healing. During the six-month randomized clinic trial, skin temperature will be monitored daily, a maintenance dose of cooling gel pack or placebo will be applied three times weekly to the affected skin, and a bolus dose of cooling will be applied for 5 consecutive days if skin temperature becomes elevated. Outcomes on the incidence of leg ulcer recurrence, pain, physical activity and quality of life will be measured.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a handicraft topical device of negative pressure versus traditional healing treatment for skin ulcers in lower limbs; in patients with diabetes mellitus, venous stasis and arterial insufficiency.
This study is designed to look at the effect of the geko device on the circulation in lower limbs of participants with venous leg ulcers.
The aim of this study is to compare the clinical efficacy of two types of NPWT systems; the traditional negative pressure wound therapy (tNPWT) system and the single-use negative pressure wound therapy (PICO) system.
Background: Venous Leg ulcers are a frequent pathology in dermatology and complex in their management. At the origin of high health costs and strong repercussions on quality of life for patients, they require long management and may be subject to possible complications. In spite of appropriate treatment, 50-60% of these ulcers are not healed at 24 weeks. Purpose: Topical beta adrenergic antagonists have shown efficacy in wound healing. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment of chronic venous ulcers with topical timolol.
The purpose of the study is to assess treatment tolerance and comfort in chronic VLUs after 4 weeks of treatment using a dual action pneumatic compression device.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a multilayer compression bandage (two layers), compared with the crepe bandage, on healing of venous leg ulcers, in patients attended in nursing Primary Care Health Centres, at 12 weeks follow-up.
The primary objective of these case series is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the KLOX BioPhotonic System as adjunctive therapy to Standard Of Care (SOC) in patients with venous leg ulcers.
This investigation is a Post Marketing Follow-Up Study for Mepilex XT conducted as part of Mölnlycke Health Care's quality system. The primary objective is to evaluate the performance of the dressing when used as intended on exuding Venous Leg Ulcers (VLUs) in the inflammatory and granulating stages of the wound healing process.
