Interventional study of a novel moisturising skin support versus standard care. The treatment is provided as an alternative wound care treatment to the standard chronic wound care currently being applied in wound care clinics. The Application of treatment in performed by wound care nurses at time of bandage change, usually 7-19 days apart, for a period of up to 3 years, at the medical centre. The treatment is a topical (cream product) that also has a sorbolene base cream. The investigational product is a combination of two novel active proprietary ingredients in a cream; at 5% Papaya and 2% Palmidrol (both are on the TGA permitted ingredients list) as well as sorbolene. The intervention (cream) is applied at a clinic appointment so the process for monitoring adherence to the intervention is performed at each bandage change by the wound care nurses.
