Summary

This study tests a wireless, bioelectric bandage called PowerHeal™ on infected wounds. Researchers want to see if it clears infection and helps wounds close better than standard care. About 150 adults with infected traumatic wounds will take part. The bandage is changed regularly, and wound photos and swabs are taken to track progress.
