  • Ulcer is not circumferential
  • Able to attend the required number of clinic visits for wound dressings
  • Can provide written informed consent and complete questionnaires or informed consent and questionnaires can be completed by the legal person responsible
  • As the maximum diameter of the EmoLED treatment beam is 5cm (surface area of 19.6cm2) and chronic ulcers require 120 seconds irradiation per application, the maximum ulcer surface area that can be included is 80cm2, equal to a maximum of four consecutive applications (a total of 8 minutes).

Exclusion Criteria

  • for the study:
  • Wound present for less than 6 weeks
  • Wound greater than 80cm2
  • Circumferential ulcers
  • Malignant ulcers
  • Arterial ulcers with Toe Brachial Index (TBI) less than 0.5 or Ankle Brachial Pressure Index (ABPI) less than 0.6
  • Pressure ulcers
  • Use of other advanced therapies such as Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT), grafting, topical oxygen therapy
  • Presence of untreated osteomyelitis, spreading or systemic infection
  • Previous treatment with photo biomodulation therapy
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding
