Summary
The aim of this randomised, open-label, multicentre clinical trial is to evaluate the superiority of the treatment which foresees the addition of the system VULNOFAST® plus / VULNOLIGHT® to the Usual Care, versus the treatment with Usual Care alone, for the healing of chronic diabetic foot ulcer. VULNOFAST® plus is a sterile solution used in combination with a red light source VULNOLIGHT®. Usual Care is defined as procedures to apply to the foot ulcer, carried out in the order in which they are listed in the protocol.
