Filter by:This study will evaluate the effects on venous blood flow of the investigational device, OsciPulse system, which is an external intermittent limb compression device. The study will enroll healthy human subjects who will have their deep venous blood flow measured by vascular ultrasound during immobility, use of the OsciPulse system, and use of two reference vascular compression devices. Our hypothesis is that the OsciPulse system will create distinct patterns of venous flow, specifically at the site of venous valves, in comparison to the reference compression devices.
Aim of the present study is to investigate the efficiency of adrenaline (epinephrine) used locally in reducing and avoiding post-operative formation of subcutaneous ecchymoses and hematomas, in comparison with traditional practice of hemostasis, and to assess improvement in the quality of life of subjects undergoing classic great saphenous vein stripping, who received or did not receive adrenaline as a local hemostatic.
This study is a prospective, multi-center, randomized controlled trial designed to collect patient outcome data on a commercially available human autologous homologous skin construct with SOC dressing compared to SOC dressings alone in the treatment of Venous Leg Wounds
This study is designed to describe the difference in varicose vein outcomes found from using a neuromuscular electrical stimulation device for different amounts of time - Group A (control - no device), Group B (device for 30 mins per day) and Group C (device for 60 mins per day). The groups are assessed after 6 weeks of intervention.
In this study, four different devices which stimulate the blood in the lower extremities are used in ten healthy persons while measuring the blood flow with ultrasound. The aim is to study the haemodynamic effects in the lower extremities of each modality and also to compare those effects between the four modalities in order to identify those which most effective than the others.
The purpose of the research is to compare the influence of customized foot orthoses use on the venous status among healthy female and male subjects. This is a quasi-experimental study which included 20 healthy subjects. Sociodemographic and medical record data are registered. Furthermore,venous function is evaluated by plethysmography, first, without orthoses and, after 20 days, with orthoses.
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 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.
This study would like to determine if using negative pressure wound therapy with an instillation of .125% Dakins is more effective than using negative pressure wound therapy alone on biofilm removal, disruption and elimination in chronically infected lower extremity wounds.
The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy of an oral, nutrient intervention containing the bioactive components of fish oil to promote healing of chronic venous leg ulcers (CVLU). If this systemic, nutrient intervention is found to alter the microenvironment of CVLU, the science of wound healing and care of patients with CVLU will be vastly improved.
