Evaluation of Wound Biofilm in Acute and Chronic Wounds

NCT00764348 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL

Last updated 2011-09-07

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Patients who present to a wound care center for management of their wounds will be evaluated clinically to establish if their wounds are chronic or acute. These patients will undergo standard of care management of their wounds. If debridement is indicated for the patient, the patient will be asked to participate in a study. Once the standard of care debridement is complete, the material debrided from the wound, instead of being discarded into a biohazard bag, will be prepared for shipment. The samples will then be shipped to the Center for Biofilm Engineering where microscopic evaluation will be conducted on the material. Conclusion will be made from that analysis.
