About this study

Official title: Effect of Transdermal Insulin Therapy by Ultrasonographic in Wound Healing of Chronic Diabetic Patients

The main aim of the study is to determine the effect of transdermal application of insulin therapy by phonophoresis in wound healing in diabetic patients the main question of the study: is insulin phonophoresis is effective in accelerating healing in patients with diabetes mellites? 40 patients will be randomly assigned to two groups group A will receive insulin phonophoresis plus hyper polarized laser therapy and standard wound cleaning and dressing three times weekly over four weeks.

Group B will receive hyper polarized laser therapy and standard wound cleaning and dressing three times weekly over four weeks.

Read the detailed description

DIMST scale ( as an acronym from the initial domains of depth, maceration, inflammation/infection, size, tissue type of the wound bed, type of wound edge, and tunneling/undermining) will be used for assessment.

MANOVA will be used for statistical analysis between group comparison

Being tested
Insulin therapy phonophoresis, Hyperpolarized light therapy and Standard wound cleaning and dressing.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Insulin therapy phonophoresisOther

    Insulin therapy phonophoresis is the use of ultrasound to deliver drugs through patients skin, Insulin therapy will be used to determine its effect on wound healing in patients with chronic diabetes mellites because in addition to its systemic impact, numerous reports suggest that applying insulin topically causes localized effects. Many trials and case reports have been released reporting positive effects of topical insulin for many diseases such as dermatological compromises, ophthalmological diseases and others

  • Hyperpolarized light therapy and Standard wound cleaning and dressing.Other

    Hyperpolarized light therapy safely accelerates wound healing by stimulating blood circulation, reducing inflammation and relieving muscle spasms.

What is being measured

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

  1. DMIST scale which is a valid and reliable scale for measuring depth, maceration, inflammation/infection, size, tissue type of the wound bed, type of wound edge, and tunneling/undermining.

    Zero will be the minimum score and 98 was the maximum, with a greater number denoting a more severe injury and a zero signaling full recovery

    Measured: before first session and at the end of the treatment program (four weeks)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Insulin therapy phonophoresis and Hyperpolarized light therapy and Standard wound cleaning and dressing. in people with Diabetes Mellitus, run by MTI University.

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 1 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact amira saad Mohamed, Master degree (02-01092128481, amira.saad.mm@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

DMIST scale which is a valid and reliable scale for measuring depth, maceration, inflammation/infection, size, tissue type of the wound bed, type of wound edge, and tunneling/undermining. (time frame: before first session and at the end of the treatment program (four weeks)). 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 29 Nov 2024.
