Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

A - Standard of Care (control)

Standard of care - dressings and sustained compression only

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

B Same treatment for 6 weeks

200ppm NO gas 8hrs/day 6 weeks NO gas in nitrogen is delivered constantly to a patch over the wound

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Nitric Oxide - same dose 6 wks

Intervention Type DRUG

200ppm, 8hrs / day for 6 weeks NO gas in nitrogen delivered to a patch over the wound

C - modified treatment, 5 wks lower dose

200 ppm No gas 8 hrs/day 1 wk, 20ppm 8hrs/day 5 weeks Gas is NO in nitrogen delivered constantly for 8 hours to a patch over the wound

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Nitric Oxide modified treatment

Intervention Type DRUG

200ppm, 8hrs/day for 1 week, followed by 25ppm 8hrs/day for 5 weeks Gas is delivered to a patch over the wound
