Platelet-rich fibrin gel for chronic leg ulcers
Treatments studied
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Skin clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 35 years or older.

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 a treatment made from your own blood that is applied to a wound that has not healed after standard care. The goal is to see if this gel can help the wound close and heal better.
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 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.
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.
