Developing Strategies for Effective Debridement in Patients for Venous Leg Ulcers
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Wound Edge Debridement and Standard of Care Treatment for Venous Leg Ulcer. Completed, enrolled 41 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The goal of this project is to use genomic profiling, candidate genes and proteins to develop guided surgical debridement to improve healing in chronic non-healing venous leg ulcers (VLUs) and to test the efficacy of this approach.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Wound debridement is performed using a sharp, circular disposable curette to remove the slough, non-viable tissue and any fibrous tissue down to the vascular base.
Standard of Care treatment will include foam dressing and 4 layer compression therapy, changed weekly.
