Who may be able to join

  • Patients must have a non-healing wound and be over 18 years of age the criteria for non-healing wounds is as per 5.1 on the community nursing referral criteria when considering referral of patients to tissue viability:
  • 'would expect that the wounds are deteriorating, chronic, non-healing or static or there are problems with the dressing regime'
  • Patients must be willing to provide written informed consent
  • Patients must have a registered Sheffield General Practitioner and be referred to tissue viability for a static or deteriorating wound

Who cannot join

About this study

The study will explore whether a 3D camera data can provide a more accurate baseline measurement (compared to 2D images with manual measurement) to support better clinical decision making in referrals to tissue viability.

Read the detailed description

Chronic and non-healing wounds are a significant problem to manage in community and represent a significant workload in community nursing. The current management for non-healing wounds includes referral to the tissue viability service, using a 2 D photographic image with assessment information. This study will pilot the use of a 3 D camera and associated software that introduces measurement and monitoring of wounds as a specific intervention. The introduction of 3 D measurement and monitoring of wounds will be compared with usual care. With a target recruitment of 30 patients via tissue viability, the pilot will report on the feasibility of using this outcome measure and the effectiveness of monitoring on wound closure or improvement.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 3d camera in people with Chronic and Non-healing Wounds, run by Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Feb 2019. 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 United Kingdom. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

comparative consistency of the image (time frame: 1 week). The study lists 2 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 15 Feb 2019.
