Pulsed magnetic field therapy for diabetic foot ulcer sensation
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a painless pulsed electromagnetic field treatment can improve feeling in diabetic foot ulcers. It is designed for people with type 2 diabetes who have had a foot ulcer for a while and have lost some sensation due to nerve damage.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have type 2 diabetes with an A1c of 6.5 or higher.
- You have a Wagner grade 1 diabetic foot ulcer (a shallow, non-infected sore).
- You have reduced feeling in your feet, confirmed by a tuning fork and a monofilament test (scoring less than 8 out of 10).
- You have had diabetes for more than 10 years.
- You are between 40 and 60 years old.
- You do not have serious cognitive issues, active infections, or other major health problems like cancer or severe kidney disease.

This trial tests a device called CRAD ULCER X-01 that uses gentle magnetic pulses to help heal diabetic foot ulcers. It may help people with a diabetic foot ulcer that is not too deep and is at an early stage.
This study tests whether custom-made insoles combined with a mild electrical stimulation device can help heal diabetic foot ulcers better than standard care. It may reduce pain and improve healing for people with early-stage foot ulcers.
This study tests whether applying a magnetic current to diabetic foot ulcers helps them heal faster. It's for people with diabetes who have a slow-healing ulcer on their foot.
This study tests whether electromagnetic field therapy plus a custom foot insole can improve blood flow in your feet and help with diabetic foot ulcers. It may help heal ulcers by improving circulation.
This study tests whether a special external muscle stimulation device can help heal diabetic foot ulcers. It may speed up healing and improve blood flow in the affected area.
This study tests a painless light treatment (photobiomodulation) to see if it can prevent foot ulcers in people with type 2 diabetes who are at risk. If you qualify, you would receive the treatment regularly and be monitored for foot health.
