Sheep membrane may help cover exposed bone faster
NCT ID NCT07385313
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a special wound dressing made from sheep stomach lining, used with a vacuum device, to see if it helps cover exposed bone or tendon faster than the vacuum device alone. About 30 adults with soft tissue wounds on an arm or leg will take part. The goal is to see if the combination leads to quicker tissue coverage and fewer complications.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Ovine forestomach matrix (a sheep-derived wound dressing) used with negative pressure wound therapy
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a faster way to cover exposed bone or tendon in complex wounds, reducing infection risk and need for surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small early-phase trial with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The device may not speed healing more than standard care.
