Safety test of two wound dressings for chronic wounds
Part of Infections, Injuries & trauma, Skin clinical trials.
This study compares how safe and effective two different wound dressings are for chronic wounds (wounds that haven't healed for weeks or months). Researchers will evaluate which dressing works better at managing wounds that produce a lot of fluid.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have a chronic wound (lasting 4 weeks to 2 years) that is moderately to heavily draining
- Your wound is between 2–50 cm² in size (roughly the size of a postage stamp to a large postage stamp)
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding
- You can attend follow-up visits during the study and won't be moving away
- You don't have severe infections, cancer treatment, kidney failure, or other serious conditions that would slow healing

This trial is testing a special dressing (Vliwazell Prowound) for many kinds of wounds, including diabetic ulcers, burns, and surgical wounds that heal slowly. It looks at how well the dressing works for wounds that produce moderate to very heavy fluid. The dressing is meant to help protect the wound and support healing.
This trial tests if a new version of a special dressing (Suprasorb X+PHMB Pro) works better than the current version for treating infected venous leg ulcers. It may help people with mildly to moderately draining wounds that are infected.
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.
This trial tests two methods for treating chronic skin wounds that need surgery to clean them. It aims to find which method works better and is safer.
This study tests a new absorbable wound dressing that fights bacteria to help heal chronic wounds that haven't improved for at least a week. It might be a good option if you have a wound that's infected or has bacteria on it and is between the size of a coin and a small plate.
This trial compares two types of wound dressings, one with chlorhexidine and one with povidone iodine, to see which works better for healing after an injury like a cut or scrape. It is for people with fresh, mildly dirty wounds from trauma.
