A test for blood flow problems in diabetic foot ulcers
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism, Skin clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new way to check for blocked arteries in people with diabetes who have foot ulcers. The goal is to see if this test can help doctors diagnose blood flow problems more accurately.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have type 1 or type 2 diabetes
- You have a foot ulcer on one or both feet
- You are willing to provide written consent to join the study
- You have not had a prior revascularization procedure (like a bypass or stent) in your legs

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial uses a Doppler ultrasound to measure blood flow speed in your leg arteries to see if it can better predict a severe form of peripheral artery disease called critical limb ischemia. You may qualify if you have known artery disease in your leg and are already scheduled for a toe blood pressure test.
This study uses a special ultrasound (like a sound wave camera) to see blood flow in foot sores caused by diabetes. It may help doctors understand the tiny blood vessels in your foot ulcer.
This trial tests a new camera that uses light to check blood flow in your legs. It compares the camera's results to standard tests like ABI and Doppler ultrasound to see if it works as well.
This study uses a noninvasive light scanner to measure oxygen levels in leg tissues. It may help detect blocked leg arteries (peripheral artery disease) more easily.
This trial uses a simple ultrasound test called Doppler to check blood flow in your ankle after leg artery surgery. It aims to see if this test can help monitor your recovery and spot problems early.
This trial tests if an early procedure to open blocked leg arteries (angioplasty) helps heal foot ulcers in people with type 2 diabetes. It aims to improve blood flow and prevent amputation.
