Brief Summary

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

A clinical trial will be carried out comparing the efficacy of PICO system based on negative pressure therapy (NPT) in adults with chronic ulcers compared to conventional treatments.

Detailed Description

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

Due to the current scientific and clinical evidence shows that NPT offers guarantees as complementary care, improving healing and reducing amputations in patients with chronic ulcers, treatment with PICO single-use NPT, should be considered as the first option.

This clinical trial include adults from the Hospital General Universitario of Toledo with 2 arms (intervention and control) and the intervention will last 12 weeks.

The intervention proposed in the study will consist of evaluating the decrease in size, the healing rate, the adverse effects and the quality of life related to the health of the patients compared with traditional treatments.

Study Groups

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

Intervention

The intervention group measurements will be carried out every 7 days, since the PICO system lasts from 7 to 14 days, except when the ulcer presents infection, which will be cured every 2-3 days.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Single-use negative pressure therapy (PICO)

Intervention Type DEVICE

PICO system will be applied to patients in the intervention group with diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers or pressure ulcers. This device will be changed every 7 days, until the wound is closed, or until a set period of study duration, approximately 12 weeks.

Control

The control group measurements will be carried out every 7 days, except when the ulcer is infected, when the cure will be carried out every 2-3 days. This group (GC) will be treated mainly with betadine and sugar, or other treatments such as alginate patches, corticosteroids, Aquacel, Celestoderm or Mepitel.
