It may be a good fit if you have a diabetic foot ulcer and are not currently in another drug trial for ulcers.
This trial studies an approach to treat bacteria living in a diabetic foot ulcer and help prevent the ulcer from coming back. You may be able to join if you have an open diabetic foot ulcer and good blood flow to the wound.
This study uses two special cameras to look at blood flow and heat patterns in your feet. The goal is to better predict who might be at risk for developing a diabetic foot ulcer, so steps can be taken to prevent it.
This study collects skin samples from people with and without type 2 diabetes, especially around foot skin problems, to learn how skin “micro-germs” differ. The goal is to better understand what’s going on in diabetic skin lesions and possibly guide future care.
This study aims to find out which bacteria are causing your diabetic foot infection by testing a small sample from your wound. This could help doctors choose better treatments for you and others with similar infections.
This study looks at how images of a current foot wound in people with diabetes can be used to help doctors. It may help improve how foot ulcers are evaluated while you receive usual care.
