Umbilical cord treatment for hard-to-heal diabetic foot ulcers
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests if adding an umbilical cord-based treatment to standard care helps heal diabetic foot ulcers that have not closed with usual care. It may be an option if you have a foot ulcer that is at least 4 weeks old and between 1 and 15 square centimeters in size.
