18 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare healing characteristics, reduction in the size of the wound and to measure complete healing of the wound following the application of a biologic product dressing instead of the alginate dressing along with standard debridement and compression therapy versus the standard of care treatment for VLUs. The biologic product that will be used in this study is called AmnioExCel™.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the product performance of a new adjustable compression system for the treatment of venous leg ulcers.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether individualized wound prevention instructions will lengthen the ulcer-free period in veterans with recently healed venous ulcers.
Most chronic (long-lasting) wounds of the leg (also known as venous ulcers) fail to heal in a reasonable period of time. Although researchers have made great progress in understanding how the body repairs wounds, attempts to develop new treatments have been disappointing. In general, treatments based on recent findings about the details of wound repair have not greatly reduced the number of people who have chronic wounds. The long-term goal of this study is to evaluate a new approach for healing a chronic wound. Current methods of directly applying substances that are involved in wound healing to a chronic wound do not cause enough healing. PDGF-B (platelet-derived growth factor B), a factor associated with wound healing, might dramatically enhance healing if a genetically engineered virus is injected into the wound that causes cells in the wound to produce PDGF-B in large quantities.
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.
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 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.
More than 100 hospital based outpatient wound centers in the USA and Puerto Rico agree to transmit structured data on all patients followed with chronic wounds and ulcers (e.g. diabetic foot ulcers, venous ulcers, pressure ulcers, arterial ulcers, surgical wounds, and traumatic wounds). Data are collected at point of care including adherence to wound care quality measures developed by the USWR as a Qualified Clinical Data Registry (QCDR).
The purpose of this study is to compare the VERSAJET™ device with conventional surgical procedures (performed with a scalpel) in the debridement (removal of unhealthy tissue) of lower limb ulcers. It is hypothesised that the time taken to debride lower limb ulcers will be quicker with the VERSAJET™ device than with conventional surgical procedures.
This pilot study was designed to test the safety of Celaderm(TM) in treating venous leg ulcers and to give preliminary information about the efficacy of two different Celaderm(TM) dosing regimens.
The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of allo-APZ2-CVU, administered topically on therapy-resistant non-healing CVUs compared to placebo.
The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical effectiveness of a low-power PEMF device, a medium-power PEMF device and a high-power PEMF device as compared to a sham device to treat leg ulcers resulting from venous stasis ("VSLU").
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and economic benefits of Cyclical Pressure Topical Wound Oxygen (TWO2) Therapy in the treatment of venous leg ulcers. Participants will utilize standard of care (SOC) multilayer compression dressings with an inactive wound contact layer. Following a 2-week run-in period with SOC and after meeting all eligibility criteria, subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio with TWO2 therapy or sham control therapy plus SOC. Participants will enter the intervention period of up to 16-weeks, followed by a long-term follow-up period of 52 weeks post randomization.
A 12 month, multicenter, open-label registry to observe chronic venous insufficiency resulting in VLU treated with Varithena.
This study is being done to find out if an investigational product called HP802-247 can help people with venous leg ulcers. Investigational means that HP802-247 has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). At least 250 subjects will participate. The study is going to be conducted in approximately 50 sites in the United States and Canada.
The overall objective will be to evaluate clinical predictors of outcomes in patients who undergo endovenous sclerotherapy for the treatment of varicose veins.
Global, Post-Market, Prospective, Multi-Center, Randomized Controlled Trial of the VenaSeal™ Closure System vs. Surgical Stripping or Endothermal Ablation (ETA) for the Treatment of Early and Advanced Stage Superficial Venous Disease
