Summary

This is a single centre open label study measuring microcirculatory flux using Speckle imaging Device.

Microcirculation will be measured using laser speckle contrast imaging, at baseline and with the device active for 30 minutes in the wound, peri-wound and other point on the lower leg. The same procedure will be done on all the different patient groups.

Temperature variations can be assessed using Infrared Temperature Scanner (Exergen DermaTemp DT1001), a measurement will be taken at baseline, and then at 5 minutes interval during the 30 minutes activity of the device.

Conditions

  • Leg Ulcer

Interventions

DEVICE

gekoTM

The geko™ W devices are small disposable, internally powered, neuromuscular stimulators that are applied externally to the leg. The W device has a fixed 27mA current. The devices are self-adhesive and are applied to the outer/posterior aspect of the knee. This positioning enables integral electrodes to apply a stimulus to the lateral popliteal nerve (often additionally termed the common peroneal) which branches from the sciatic nerve. This nerve controls the contraction of several muscles in the lower leg.
