About this study

This study aims to assess the complete healing or healing progress of foot ulcer within 1 year Where the patients will be classified according to foot arch state together with the angiosome theory and the WIFI clinical stage to reflect the the necessity of inclusion of foot arch state together with the angiosome theory within the WIFI classification to enhance the predictability of wound healing and decision making

Read the detailed description

Patients will be classified according to their WIFi stages into 3 groups and each group will be furtherly classified according to the patient's angiography of foot arch (whether by CT angiography or direct angiography) into:

Type 1: patent foot arch Type 2: partially occluded foot arch which is divided into whether Type 2a: patent dorsal tributary of foot arch Type 2b: patent lateral tributary of foot arch Type 3: totally occluded foot arch is divided into whether. Type 3a: totally occluded foot arch with anterior tibial artery inflow. Type 3b: totally occluded foot arch with posterior tibial artery inflow.

During follow-up assessments, wound is classified to be within: anterior tibial artery, posterior tibial artery or both territories.

Wound healing states are often classified based on the progression of the healing process into each of the following categories such as:

  1. Complete Healing: Wound closure with the restoration of tissue integrity and absence of signs of infection.
  2. Partial Healing: Significant improvement but not complete closure; may involve reduction in wound size and improved tissue viability.
  3. Worsening: Increase in wound size or signs of infection which may necessitates performing major amputation.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Complete Healing

    Wound closure with the restoration of tissue integrity and absence of signs of infection.

    Measured: 2,4,6 months

  2. Partial Healing:

    significant improvement but not complete closure; may involve change in wound size and improved tissue viability.

    Measured: 2,4,6 months

  3. Worsening

    change in wound size or signs of infection which may necessitates performing major amputation. .

    Measured: 2,4,6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Occurrence of Complication

    Rates of procedure- and device-related adverse events during revasularization

    Measured: within 30 days of the procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia and Diabetic Foot, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Complete Healing (time frame: 2,4,6 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Aug 2024.
