Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Pressure Ulcer Size (Length x Width x Depth, cm^3) at 20 Weeks After Baseline20 weeks after baseline

Pressure ulcer size is measured after debridement if debridement is provided. The pressure ulcer size (cubic centimeter) is the length (centimeter) times the width (centimeter) times the depth(centimeter). The range of value is from 0 to positive infinite.

Pressure Ulcer Size (Length x Width x Depth, cm^3) at 4 Weeks After Baseline4 weeks after baseline

Pressure ulcer size is measured after debridement if debridement is provided. The pressure ulcer size (cubic centimeter) is the length (centimeter) times the width (centimeter) times the depth(centimeter). The range of value is from 0 to positive infinite.

Pressure Ulcer Size (Length x Width x Depth, cm^3) at 12 Weeks After Baseline12 weeks after baseline

Pressure ulcer size is measured after debridement if debridement is provided. The pressure ulcer size (cubic centimeter) is the length (centimeter) times the width (centimeter) times the depth(centimeter). The range of value is from 0 to positive infinite.

Pressure Ulcer Size (Length x Width x Depth, cm^3) at 8 Weeks After Baseline8 weeks after baseline

Pressure ulcer size is measured after debridement if debridement is provided. The pressure ulcer size (cubic centimeter) is the length (centimeter) times the width (centimeter) times the depth(centimeter). The range of value is from 0 to positive infinite.

Pressure Ulcer Size (Length x Width x Depth, cm^3) at Baselinepressure ulcer size (length x width x depth, cm^3) at baseline

Pressure ulcer size is measured after debridement if debridement is provided. The pressure ulcer size (cubic centimeter) is the length (centimeter) times the width (centimeter) times the depth(centimeter). The range of value is from 0 to positive infinite.

Pressure Ulcer Size (Length x Width x Depth, cm^3) at 16 Weeks After Baseline16 weeks after baseline

Pressure ulcer size is measured after debridement if debridement is provided. The pressure ulcer size (cubic centimeter) is the length (centimeter) times the width (centimeter) times the depth(centimeter). The range of value is from 0 to positive infinite.

Pressure Ulcer Size (Length x Width x Depth, cm^3) at 24 Weeks After Baseline24 weeks after baseline

Pressure ulcer size is measured after debridement if debridement is provided. The pressure ulcer size (cubic centimeter) is the length (centimeter) times the width (centimeter) times the depth(centimeter). The range of value is from 0 to positive infinite.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing (PUSH) Score at 16 Weeks After Baseline16 weeks after baseline

PUSH categorizes pressure ulcer by surface area, exudate, and type of wound tissue. A comparison of total scores measured over time provides an indication of the improvement or deterioration in pressure ulcer healing. Total score ranges from 0 (healed, normal) to 17 (most severe).

Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing (PUSH) Score at 8 Weeks After Baseline8 weeks after baseline

PUSH categorizes pressure ulcer by surface area, exudate, and type of wound tissue. A comparison of total scores measured over time provides an indication of the improvement or deterioration in pressure ulcer healing. Total score ranges from 0 (healed, normal) to 17 (most severe).

Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing (PUSH) Score at 20 Weeks After Baseline20 weeks after baseline

PUSH categorizes pressure ulcer by surface area, exudate, and type of wound tissue. A comparison of total scores measured over time provides an indication of the improvement or deterioration in pressure ulcer healing. Total score ranges from 0 (healed, normal) to 17 (most severe).
