Diabetic Foot Ulcer
Conditions
Brief summary
The investigators plan to evaluate healing in a cohort of patients with chronic wounds (n=40) that receive optimal treatment including serial wound debridement and off-loading with total contact casts or a boot and GrafixPL PRIME. In addition, the investigators will collect data on other potential confounding factors that could affect healing such as medications, tobacco, nutrition, comorbidities, diabetes control, infection, perfusion, and activity. Wound healing, including wound size and adverse events will be evaluated. The objective of this study is to understand the use of this product to evaluate wound healing in 40 patients.

Total Adverse Events
There was no control arm in this study - everyone enrolled received treatment. Analysis of these data was separated into two groups - closed wounds and not closed wounds. Wounds that closed achieved full epithelialization within the 12 week study time frame. Wounds that did not close did not achieve full epithelialization by the end of study visit.
Time frame: 12 weeks
Population: There was no control arm in this study. Analysis of these data was separated into two groups - closed wounds and not closed wounds. Wounds that closed achieved full epithelialization within the 12 week study time frame. Wounds that did not close did not achieve full epithelialization by the end of study visit.
