Electrical bandage for chronic wound treatment
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a new bandage that uses a mild electrical current to help heal chronic wounds. It's for veterans with spinal cord injuries or diabetes who have wounds that haven't healed.
