CHRONIC WOUND

This study tests a new way to create living skin during surgery for wounds that won't heal easily. Doctors take a small piece of the patient's own skin, separate out stem cells, and spray them onto a scaffold that is placed on the wound. The goal is to see if this helps wounds cl…

This study tests a new hydrogel made with plasma-activated water on chronic wounds like diabetic foot ulcers and pressure sores. Fifty adults will either get the gel or standard wound care for 12 weeks. Researchers will check if the gel helps wounds close faster and lowers bacter…

This study tests a wound dressing called Miro3D, made from pig liver tissue, to see if it helps heal hard-to-treat wounds like diabetic foot ulcers and pressure ulcers. Up to 20 adults will receive the dressing along with standard care for up to 12 weeks. Researchers will measure…

This early study is testing a mineral-based spray called THERAVEX on 26 people with various wounds, including burns, pressure sores, and diabetic ulcers. The spray is used alongside standard wound care to see if it helps the skin heal better and faster. So far, it appears safe an…

This study tests whether a cold helium plasma device is safe and tolerable for people with chronic wounds, such as leg ulcers or pressure sores. About 40 adults with wounds that have not healed for over 4 weeks will receive the treatment. The goal is to see if cold plasma can red…

This early-stage study tests a topical spray called ELU42 on 15 adults with diabetic foot ulcers (Wagner grade 1-2) that have lasted 4 to 52 weeks. The spray is applied three times a week for six weeks. The main goals are to check safety and measure how much the wound shrinks. Th…

This pilot study tests a new flexible bandage called exciflex that delivers mild electrical stimulation to chronic wounds that won't heal normally. The study includes 16 veterans with diabetes or spinal cord injury who have lower leg wounds. The bandage is designed to work for up…

This study looks at genetic and epigenetic changes in chronic wounds that don't heal normally. Researchers will compare tissue from the wound with blood samples from 256 adults to find genetic signatures linked to healing. The goal is to understand why some wounds heal and others…
