Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Global response (combination of clinical and microbiological response). It will be evaluated in the categories “Satisfactory” and “Unsatisfactory” where: - Satisfactory: when 48 hours after the last application of the assigned treatment, the response clinical lesion is in the non-infected category (no presence of any signs and symptoms clinical: (inflammation, induration, tenderness, edema, redness, erythema, pain, local heat, hyperesthesia and purulent secretion) and present microbiological response (absence of bacterial growthm in DFU or healed ulcer). Unsatisfactory: when 48 hours after the last application of the assigned treatment, the response clinical presentation of the lesion is in the categories “mild”, “moderate” or “severe” with or without growth bacterial in the DFU, or present clinical response in the “uninfected” category with growth bacterial in the UPD.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Safety (identification of adverse events occurring during the application of the test product). Measuring time: daily, during 7 days.. Occurrence (yes/no), Description (EA presented is reported using an accurate medical terminology), Duration (date difference between the beginning and the end of the event), Intensity (mild, moderate or severe), Seriousness (serious/serious or not serious/not serious), Attitude toward the drug (unchanged or permanent discontinuation), Results (recovered, improved persists, worsens, death), Causation (likely/certain, probable, possible, unlikely, unrelated or not evaluable/unclassifiable), Local events (yes/no), Systemic events (yes/no). -Biochemical parameters (Hemoglobin g/L, total leukocyte count cells/L, neutrophils %, lymphocytes %, monocytes %, eosinophils %, basophils %, platelet count cells/L, erythro mm/h, creatinine mmol/L, TGO U/L, TGP U/L). Measuring time: before starting treatment with Dermofural®/placebo and after finishing it. Glycosylated hemoglobin %. Measuring time: before starting treatment with Dermofural®/placebo.
