Brief Summary

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

This study aims to exploratively assess the efficacy and safety of hydrophilic polyurethane foam dressing (MedifoamⓇ or BetafoamⓇ) in pressure ulcer specifically. The target enrolment is 20 patients, with 10 patients per arm.

Detailed Description

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

As the primary objective, the percentage of completely healed patients and the time to complete healing will be assessed after applying the study device, MedifoamⓇ or BetafoamⓇ, for 12 weeks to pressure ulcer patients. In addition, the pressure ulcer size reduction rate over 12 weeks will be evaluated.

Patients will make once weekly site visits. There are 14 visits in total, including a screening visit 14 days (maximum) before the baseline visit.

Study Groups

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

Foam Dressing

Over the course of 12 weeks, dressing is performed twice weekly, but additional dressing changes are allowed, depending on the condition of the pressure ulcer such as excessive exudates on the ulcer. The frequency of dressing change is limited to once daily.

Group Type OTHER

Foam Dressing

Intervention Type DEVICE

The purpose of the study is not to compare between the 2 devices, but to determine the efficacy of each type of device on its own. Subjects are randomised to one of 2 arms.

Foam Dressing with Povidone Iodine

Over the course of 12 weeks, dressing is performed twice weekly, but additional dressing changes are allowed, depending on the condition of the pressure ulcer such as excessive exudates on the ulcer. The frequency of dressing change is limited to once daily.
