New hydrogel vs. standard dressing for chronic leg wounds
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial compares a new hydrogel dressing to a standard alginate dressing for chronic wounds on the lower legs that haven't healed after at least 3 weeks. The goal is to see which dressing helps wounds heal better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a special gel-like dressing (Hyalomatrix) to see if it helps heal leg ulcers caused by poor blood flow in the veins. It may be a good option if you have a chronic venous leg ulcer that hasn't healed much despite standard care.
This trial tests a special wound dressing (SupraSDRM®) to help deep, full-thickness wounds heal faster and reduce the time needed before a skin graft can be placed. It may be an option for people with a large, deep wound from an injury, surgery, or burn that isn't ready for a graft yet.
This study tests a special antimicrobial wound dressing to see if it helps heal wounds below the knee that haven't improved with standard care. It may offer a new option for people with chronic wounds.
This study tests a special gel called PAW-Hydrogel to help heal chronic wounds (wounds that have not closed after 3+ months). The gel may help wounds close faster by supporting the natural healing process.
This study tests a new dressing for burns that may need skin grafts. The dressing is made from a gel that helps wounds heal, and the study aims to see if it works better than standard care.
This trial tests if a new version of a special dressing (Suprasorb X+PHMB Pro) works better than the current version for treating infected venous leg ulcers. It may help people with mildly to moderately draining wounds that are infected.
