HemCon Operating Room
The HemCon dressing is the intervention for the HemCon Operating Room arm. The first sub-study will evaluate the use of HemCon dressings in the operating room setting. 20 patients will be treated with HemCon dressings following a debridement, and 20 patients will be treated with gauze dressings following a debridement. HemCon Dressings and HemCon ChitoGauze; chitosan-based.: Perform debridement of chronic wounds using HemCon chitosan-based dressings and HemCon ChitoGauze both at bedside and in the Operating Room (OR) settings. Control for both settings will be gauze and saline dressings.
Control Operating Room
The first sub-study will evaluate the use of HemCon dressings in the operating room setting. 20 patients will be treated with HemCon dressings following a debridement, and 20 patients will be treated with gauze dressings following a debridement. Gauze and saline dressings.: Control for both settings will be gauze and saline dressings.
HemCon Bedside
The intervention for the HemCon Beside arm is the HemCon Dressing. The other sub-study will evaluate the use of HemCon dressings compared to control dressings in bedside debridement. In this sub-study, 20 patients will be treated with HemCon dressings following a debridement, and 20 patients will be treated with gauze dressings following a debridement. HemCon Dressings and HemCon ChitoGauze; chitosan-based.: Perform debridement of chronic wounds using HemCon chitosan-based dressings and HemCon ChitoGauze both at bedside and in the Operating Room (OR) settings. Control for both settings will be gauze and saline dressings.
Control Bedside.
The other sub-study will evaluate the use of HemCon dressings compared to control dressings in bedside debridement. In this sub-study, 20 patients will be treated with HemCon dressings following a debridement, and 20 patients will be treated with gauze dressings following a debridement.
