Testing a silver dressing for chronic wounds
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a special silver dressing helps heal infected chronic wounds better than standard care. It may help people with certain types of wound infections that are not too large or severe.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
