Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Ease of Use for Patients
Participants were given instructions to use the SNaP device home. Participants completed a questionnaire reporting whether the device was easy to use, worthwhile to use, and whether they would use the device again. Numbers responding positively to each question are presented.
Baseline up to 31 days
Study Arms (1)
SNaP application
EXPERIMENTALThis is an "open label" pilot study of SNaP Advanced Wound Care System
Interventions
Application of negative pressure device daily per instructions
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- The wound must have at least 2 cm of intact epithelium surrounding it.
- A wound such as a pressure ulcer or chronic ulcer on a location other than the lower extremity may also be included in the study if it meets the size requirements and a reliable seal can be achieved.
- Ulcer must not have healed for \>14 days under standard treatment.
- Chronic wound with prior graft placement will be allowed in the study.
- Patient is \>18 years old.
- Willing and able to sign informed consent.
You may not qualify if:
- + or greater pitting edema of lower extremity
- History of malignancy at wound site. However, wounds that are closing by secondary intent after surgical clearance of prior tumor will be allowed in the study.
- Thick eschar at wound base after debridement.
- Wound location is not amenable to forming an airtight seal and placement of device.
- Ulcers due to inflammatory conditions such as pyoderma gangrenosum, rheumatoid arthritis, vasculitis, cryoglobulinemia, necrobiosis lipoidica diabeticorum, lupus or pancreatic panniculitis, cryofibrinogenemia, calcinosis cutis, scleroderma, Raynaud's syndrome.
- Current smoker (must have quit for \>3 weeks)
- Wound with exposed bone, blood vessels, tendon
- Significant immunosuppression (as determined by the investigator and sponsor) such as high dose prednisone
- Fasting blood sugar \>200 by study personnel administered bedside fingerstick blood glucose
- Ankle brachial index less than lower limit of normal (\<0.60) as performed and determined by licensed physician (necessary only for patients with lower extremity wounds).
- Pregnancy
- Incapable of giving informed consent
- Inability to comply with study procedures including lack of telephone access for week 8 telephone survey
