Identifying bacteria in diabetic foot infections
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at the bacteria in diabetic foot infections to better understand them. If you have a diabetic foot ulcer that is infected and haven't used antibiotics recently, you may be able to help by providing a small wound sample.

This trial tests a new cell treatment for diabetic foot ulcers by injecting special regulatory monocytes (OPM cells) to help heal wounds. It is for patients with mild to moderate ulcers that haven't healed for over a month.
This study is looking for people with diabetes who have an open foot or ankle ulcer. Researchers want to collect samples to find biomarkers, which are natural signs in the body that could help improve treatment and healing. It may be a good fit if you have a diabetic foot ulcer and are not currently in another drug trial for ulcers.
This study uses noninvasive (no major procedures) tests to better understand how diabetic foot ulcers or infections are healing. It may help doctors choose better ways to support wound healing in people with diabetes.
This study looks at what factors affect outcomes in adults with diabetic foot ulcers. It may help doctors better predict healing and complications by better understanding what influences progress.
This trial tests a new antibacterial wound dressing to see if it helps heal diabetic foot ulcers safely. It may be an option if your ulcer has been there for over 4 weeks and is not severely infected.
This trial tests if a digital health education program helps people with diabetes take better care of their feet and improve their quality of life. If you have a diabetic foot wound that has been present for at least 4 weeks, this study might be for you.
