NCT ID NCT07420868
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a special dressing made from a patient's own platelets (platelet-rich plasma) helps chronic wounds heal better than a standard saline dressing. One hundred adults with long-lasting skin ulcers, including diabetic foot ulcers, took part. The goal was to see if the platelet dressing could shrink the wound more over six weeks and reduce pain.
