Can a tiny sensor predict how wounds heal?

NCT ID NCT06944899

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 09, 2026 · Updated 27 times

Summary

This study tested a special sensor that measures nitric oxide (NO) levels in open wounds. Researchers think NO levels might show how well a wound is healing. Ten adults with muscle loss injuries had the sensor placed in their wound for 30-60 minutes, then had follow-up visits to track healing. The goal was to see if the sensor works and can provide useful information about wound recovery.
