Oxygen Micro-Bubbles could speed up wound healing
NCT ID NCT05169814
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early study tests whether a new oxygen-delivery system using micro/nanobubbles can safely help heal different types of wounds. About 40 adults with acute or chronic wounds will receive either the oxygen bubbles or a standard saline treatment. Researchers will measure changes in wound size, oxygen levels, and healing markers.
