Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Determine the safety and feasibility of the application of Platelet Rich Plasma in Chronic ulcers with difficult to heal lower extremity.;Secondary Objective: Assess the feasibility of the treatment at the Cruces University Hospital (OSI EEC). Get the complete closure of 80% of treated lesions or reducing the area of the lesion in 50% of the surface. Time it takes to heal the injury. Evaluate the quality of life of patients using the SF-36 index at baseline and at study end.;Primary end point(s): Feasibility: The feasibility of treatment with PRP in the service Home Hospitalization at Cruces University Hospital. Security: - Incidence and severity of adverse reactions. - Incidence and severity of other unwanted reactions.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: One year. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): By the secondary endpoints will attempt to collect the efficacy variables. Effectiveness: evaluation criteria of response in the trial: - Percentage of patients with complete wound closure at 12 weeks of initiation of treatment with PRP. - Percentage of patients with improvement in quality of life at 14 weeks of initiation of treatment with PRP.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: One year. | — |
