Portable oxygen device tested to heal stubborn diabetic foot wounds

NCT ID NCT02326337

Summary

This study tested whether a portable oxygen therapy device could help heal chronic foot ulcers in people with diabetes. 73 participants used either the real oxygen device or a look-alike sham device at home for 90 minutes a day, five days a week, for up to 12 weeks. The main goal was to see if the oxygen treatment led to more wounds closing completely compared to standard care alone.
