Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected to identify the wound healing rate (CT), verified by measuring the percentage of variation of the wound area in relation to the baseline measured at the first consultation. This area will be presented in cm2 and the measurement of the speed of healing / epithelization of the ulcer will be observed until the end of the 90-day period or until complete healing occurs before that period. Statistical analysis will be performed to verify if there was a statistically significant difference between the healing area of both groups, with a 95% confidence level agreed here, and a p ? 0.05 value to consider statistical significance between the two groups. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected to identify as a secondary outcome the proportion of patients who evolved with the complete healing of the ulcer before the end of the follow-up period, verified by the number of days necessary for the total closure of the lesion.;It is expected to assess the pain referred by the patient himself at each follow-up visit, by applying a visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, consisting of faces and numbers ranging from zero to ten, where zero indicates the absence of pain and ten denotes the worst possible pain; verified in Visit 05, Visit 09 and Visit 13, in relation to the baseline value measured in Visit 01 | — |
