New automatic device may speed up leg ulcer assessment
NCT ID NCT06557538
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compared an automatic ABPI device (MESI MD) with the standard manual device (Huntleigh Dopplex) in 46 patients with lower limb ulcers. The goal was to see if the automatic device gives similar scores and ulcer classifications, potentially reducing waiting times and discomfort. Nurses performed both assessments during routine home or clinic visits in Berkshire.
