简要总结
This study will investigate the clinical efficacy of micro water jet technology in the debridement and healing of chronic lower extremity ulcers.
详细描述
This is a prospective cohort, single-center, open-label study in subjects with chronic lower extremity wounds. The study will enroll up to 20 subjects. Subjects will undergo screening evaluations to determine eligibility to enroll in the study. All study subjects will receive micro water jet technology debridement as opposed to other debridement methods as part of their wound care treatment. The other aspects of subjects wound care protocol will remain unchanged. In the case of bilateral limb ulcers, or multiple ulcers, subjects will have the option to receive micro water jet debridement on one or all of the ulcers.

结局指标
主要结局
Size of Ulcers
时间窗: Up to 20 weeks or when the ulcer is healed, whichever is sooner.
The extent and size of ulcers (summation of the products of the long x short axis for all ulcers measured in centimeters squared, plus ulcer depth) will be evaluated and photographs of ulcers taken during screening and on all clinic visits up to 20 weeks or when the ulcer is healed, whichever is sooner.
Leg Rest Pain Score
时间窗: up to 20 weeks, or when the ulcer is healed, whichever is sooner
Leg rest pain score - visual analogue scale (VAS) graded from 0 (pain free) to Grade 10 (maximum pain) during screening and on all clinic visits up to 20 weeks, or when the ulcer is healed, whichever is sooner.
Subjects Feedback
时间窗: At end of their study participation
Subjects feedback regarding their debridement experience with micro water jet technology will be collected on all clinical visits when debridement is performed.
Pain During Debridement Score
时间窗: up to 20 weeks, sooner pending wound healing.
Pain during Debridement score - VAS graded from 0 (pain free) to Grade 10 (maximum pain) during on all clinical visits when debridement is performed for up to 20 weeks, sooner pending wound healing.
