Cold Plasma for Diabetic Foot Ulcers After Leg Artery Treatment
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism, Skin clinical trials.
This study tests whether adding cold atmospheric plasma treatment to standard care helps heal foot ulcers in people with diabetes who have recently had a procedure to open blocked leg arteries. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and more effective than current care alone.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether adding cold atmospheric plasma (a gentle gas treatment) to a standard procedure that opens blocked leg arteries can help diabetic foot ulcers heal better and faster.
This trial tests a new 'cold plasma' treatment (a gentle electrical gas) for diabetic foot or leg ulcers that have stopped healing. It aims to see if this therapy helps wounds heal better than standard wound care alone.
This trial tests whether a cold plasma treatment can help heal chronic wounds faster when standard treatments haven't worked. Cold plasma is a gentle gas-based therapy that may promote healing and reduce the risk of infection.
This trial tests if a special treatment made from your own blood (platelet-rich plasma) can help heal foot ulcers in people with diabetes and poor circulation in their legs. The goal is to see if it improves wound healing compared to standard care.
This study tests a treatment made from your own blood (platelet-rich plasma) to help heal chronic diabetic foot ulcers. It aims to see if this treatment can improve wound healing compared to standard care.
This trial tests a special cold plasma treatment applied during surgery in the groin to see if it helps reduce wound healing problems after surgery for blocked leg arteries. It may benefit people at higher risk for wound complications.
