Platelet-rich plasma for healing deep skin ulcers
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a treatment made from your own blood (platelet-rich plasma) can help heal deep skin ulcers (Grade III) that have been present for more than two weeks. It may be a good option if you have a normal platelet count and are not in palliative care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether a treatment made from your own blood (platelet-rich plasma or platelet-rich fibrin) can help heal chronic skin ulcers better than standard care. If you have a non-healing ulcer that fits the size and duration criteria, and you are generally healthy, you may be able to participate.
This trial tests if a gel made from your own blood (platelet-rich fibrin) can help heal chronic leg ulcers that are not infected. It may be a good option if you have a long-lasting leg ulcer without signs 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 trial tests a treatment made from your own blood, called platelet-rich fibrin, to help heal wounds that haven't closed after 30 days of standard care. It's for people with leg ulcers, pressure sores, or other chronic wounds.
This trial tests a special gel made from your own blood (platelet-rich fibrin, or PRF) to help heal diabetic foot ulcers that are not getting better with standard care. It may be an option if you have a mild-to-moderate ulcer on the bottom of your foot with good blood flow and no infection.
This study tests whether applying platelet-rich plasma (a concentration of healing cells from your own blood) to a face or neck skin graft helps the graft heal better and improves recovery. If you need a skin graft for an injury, burn, or after surgery, this might be an option for you.
