Study Evaluating the Effectiveness of Treatment With Vista Care®, in Arterial Ulcers of the Lower Extremities

Conditions
Wound Heal
Registration Number
NCT05133570
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Grenoble
Brief Summary

The prevalence of chronic wounds is around 2 million people in France per year. A chronic wound is a wound that has been evolving for more than 6 weeks. The main causes are: venous causes, arterial causes and microcirculatory causes. In some aetiologies (particularly arterial causes), there is no radical therapeutic solution (no possibility of revascularisation) and the wounds are often difficult to treat and may even eventually lead to amputation. The recommendations for treating wounds are (in addition to carrying out an etiological treatment when possible) to carry out mechanical detersion and to maintain a moist wound environment. In addition to various medical devices such as dressings, adjuvant treatments that are not specific to the etiology of the wound, such as electrotherapy, negative pressure therapy or other devices such as the VistaCare®, are indicated in France.
