Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Subjects must be at least 18 years of age or older. There should be presence of a Stage II or Stage III pressure ulcer, as defined by the National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel with ulcer size between 5 cm and 25 cm

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: A subject known to have a life expectancy of less than 6 months or presence of infection in the ulcer requiring systemic antibiotics or with known allergy to components of HPTC or dHCAM are excluded

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Percentage wound area reduction Description: Wound area will be measured at time of enrollment and after device application through week. It is measured manually every week post application till 6 weeks with digital photographyTimepoint: Percentage wound area reduction Description: Percentage wound area reduction will be assessed at time of enrollment, and after device application at 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, 4 weeks, 5 weeks and 6 weeks. Wound area is measured manually with digital photography

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Time to achieve complete wound closure Description: The time to achieve complete wound closure of the target ulcer by the end of 6 weeksTimepoint: Time Frame: 4 weeks;Infiltration of vascularity in the ulcer bed Description: Infiltration of vascularity in the ulcer bed on day 5 of application. Vascularity assessment will be done using biopsy on Day 0 of application to be compared with Day 5 after application of Type-I Collagen-based Skin Substitute or Human Amnion/Chorion Membrane. Subsequently histopathology of biopsy will be done to look for: (a) increase in number of blood vessels - as percentage change (b) increase in size of blood vessel - as percentage changeTimepoint: Time Frame: 6 days;Mean number of repeated application Description: Mean number of repeated applications of the Advanced Skin Substitute & Human Amnion/Chorion Membrane used to obtain wound closureTimepoint: Time Frame: 4 weeks;Incidence of adverse events Description: Incidence of adverse events related to the intervention (e.g., infection, allergic reactions)Timepoint: Time Frame: 4 weeks;Patient treatment satisfaction Description: Patient treatment satisfaction will be assessed by using Likert Scale measured with score range from 1 to 5, wherein 1=Extremally Unsatisfied to 5=Extremally SatisfiedTimepoint: Time Frame: 4 weeks including 1-week follow-up
