Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether nitric oxide (NO)gas is effective in the treatment of venous ulcers of the lower leg.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

SUbjects were divided into two Groups - one receiving 200ppm NO gas delivered topically to the wound area for 8 hours a day for 6 weeks. The other Group (control arm) received Standard of Care (compression) for 22 weeks.
