NCT ID NCT06439667
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a telemedicine platform that uses video-chat and interactive foot exercises to improve blood flow and healing in people with diabetic foot ulcers. Fifteen adults with diabetic foot ulcers will try the program at home. The goal is to see if the approach is acceptable and feasible, and whether it improves tissue oxygen levels and muscle function.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- tele-exercise platform (video-chat and interactive foot/ankle exercises)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could point toward a new way to help diabetic foot ulcers heal faster using remote exercise.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small feasibility study with only 15 people, so results may not apply broadly. It is designed to test whether the approach works at all, not to prove it heals wounds.
