Negative pressure treatment for diabetic foot ulcers
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests a device that uses gentle suction (negative pressure) to help heal diabetic foot ulcers. It may help people with poor blood flow in their legs who have not healed with other treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether combining negative pressure wound therapy (a special dressing that uses gentle suction) can help diabetic foot wounds heal better after toe amputation. It is looking for people who have had their big or little toe removed and have adequate blood flow to the foot.
This study tests if a vacuum-like wound dressing (negative pressure wound therapy) helps heal diabetic foot ulcers after surgery. It may be a good fit if you have a foot ulcer needing surgery and are able to walk.
This trial tests special sensory insoles (called Orpyx Sensory Insoles) to help prevent diabetic foot ulcers from coming back. It aims to reduce high-pressure foot spots for people who already had a healed nerve-related ulcer.
This trial tests whether COMS One is safe and effective for healing a specific diabetic foot ulcer. It may help people whose ulcer is not healing well, especially when blood flow to the foot is limited.
This trial tests a new product (EDX110) to help heal diabetic foot ulcers that haven't improved with standard care. It's for people with diabetes who have a non-infected or mildly infected ulcer on their foot.
This trial tests a new “micro water jet” device (Debritom+) to help heal specific hard-to-heal wounds in people who can attend frequent visits. If you qualify, you’ll be assigned to the device treatment or standard care and monitored to see how well the wound heals.
