344 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The project is designed to develop and test Pressure Alternating Shoes (PAS), which will periodically off-load certain regions of the foot in order to prevent foot ulcers. An automated dual layer insole compromised of an active pressurized actuator array in combination with a passive compliant layer on top of each actuator to modulate and distribute the plantar surface pressure as desired will be tested. This device will allow us to simultaneously load and offload select areas of the foot using the active layer by inflating and deflating individual actuators using pressurized air. After offloading, the remaining load will be distributed to other areas with inflated actuators. Automatic modulation will be provided through programmable control hardware which will cyclically relieve mechanical loading based on a prescribed duration and frequency.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the safety of DERMASEAL for the treatment of non-healing, neuropathic diabetic foot ulcers. The main outcome measure is safety. A total of twenty-four (24) participants will be randomized to receive up to four (4) consecutive weeks of treatment with either standard of care (SOC), plasma film + SOC, or plasma film containing silver microparticles (DERMASEAL) + SOC, with a final follow-up visit 12 weeks after the last treatment.

This is a pilot study. Maximum 30 subjects with a diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) or surgical foot wound will be consented in order to have 20 eligible subjects who will be enrolled and completed the study. Study duration will be three weeks. Patients will be consented and undergo debridement as standard of care at day 0. Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI), Monofilament Sensory Test and Vibration Perception Threshold(VPT) test will be performed only at day 0. Tissue samples will be taken at this visit during standard of care wound debridement and these tissue samples of the wound would normally be removed as part of routine debridement. These tissue samples of the wound will be used for gene expression and bacterial analysis(research). The patient will then receive topical oxygen therapy using the Transcutaneous O2 device (research) with moist wound dressings for 21 days. Moist wound dressings are used as standard of care. Treatment will be initiated during Screening/Baseline visit(day 0) after routine wound debridement, and patient will receive instructions for home use of the device. The patient will be seen for routine wound debridement at days 7, 14, and 21 with a study window of 5 days., Digital photos of the wound, and vascular evaluations (Transcutaneous oxygen measurements and Hyperspectral imaging. will be performed at each study visit(research). Tissue samples will be taken during standard of care wound debridement at every study visit. Results of the data analysis from this project will be used to inform the design of a larger randomized clinical trial.

This is a 10-week, randomized, controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the APT001 plasma and nitric oxide treatment in subjects with a diabetic foot ulcer.
The investigators plan a randomized clinical trial of 150 patients with infected diabetes-related lower extremity wounds to compare the clinical and economic effectiveness of negative pressure wound therapy with continuous irrigation and negative pressure wound therapy without irrigation. The investigators will enroll 150 patients from two centers: The University of Texas Southwestern University Hospital and Parkland Hospital. The investigators will screen and enroll patients with wounds in the inpatient setting. Patients will randomized to receive traditional NPWT or NPWT with continuous irrigation while they are hospitalized. The average hospitalization for patents that receive NPWT is 13.3 days. Patients that do not have their wound surgically closed during hospitalization will be discharged with negative pressure wound therapy without irrigation for up to a total of four weeks of therapy. After discharge from the hospital, subjects will be seen twice weekly by home health, and the investigators will evaluate subjects in clinic every 7 days (±7 days) for a total of 16-week period or until the wound heals.

Title A Multicenter, Prospective, Randomized Controlled Modified Multi-Platform (Matriarch) Trial Evaluating Several Cellular, Acellular, and Matrix-like Products (CAMPs) and Standard of Care versus Standard of Care alone in the Management of Nonhealing Diabetic Foot and Venous Leg Ulcers.
This study will evaluate two human amnion/chorion membrane (ppLHACM) products and Standard of Care (SOC) versus SOC alone in the closure of nonhealing diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs).
People with diabetes often experience foot ulcers, which can harm their ability to move, lower their quality of life, and increase the chances of losing a limb. These diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) commonly come back (recur) even after they've healed, so it's crucial to stop them from returning to avoid toe, foot , or leg amputation. While wearing special shoes to reduce pressure on the feet is essential for healing and preventing DFUs, many people struggle to follow this treatment plan once their ulcers have healed. This study aims to see if a lifestyle-focused program can help participants create daily routines and habits that make it easier to consistently use special shoes and take care of their diabetes and feet to prevent ulcers from recurring.
