NameTimeMethod
Proportion of subjects with a target ulcer which achieves complete wound closure in 8 weeks8 weeks

Skin re-epithelialization without drainage or dressing requirements

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Proportion of subjects with a target ulcer which achieves complete wound closure in 4 weeks4 weeks

Skin re-epithelialization without drainage or dressing requirements

Wound infection rate until completion of skin re-epithelialization8 weeks

Wound infection rate until the completion of skin re-epithelialization in each subject by recording the signs and symptoms of infection at every visit

Number of days till completion of wound healing from baseline8 weeks
Safety as determined through collection of adverse events8 weeks
Patient's level of satisfaction with treatment measured weekly using numeric rating scale (NRS)8 weeks

Level of patient's satisfaction with the application and removal of dressing, as measured using numeric rating scale (NRS). This is done weekly from Visits 3 to 17.

Total number of the dressing change and mean number of dressing change per day compared to wound healing period8 weeks
Change amount and change rate of the target ulcer size after using the investigational device8 weeks

The area of the target ulcer is calculated with a film drawn to the shape of the wound at the target ulcer, by using the Visitrak digital planimetry.
