Actual (reported)The purpose of this study is to learn more about biofilm and to see how it affects diabetic wounds. A biofilm can occur if a chronic infection causes bacteria to grow in a slime enclosed group. This grouping of bacteria is called a biofilm.

Actual (reported)Biofilm infection
Biofilm Infection using SEM and RT PCR analysis
14 Weeks
macrophage phenotyping
Wound macrophage phenotypes using flowcytometry, RTPCR and RNA Seq
14 Weeks
Diabetic patients with HbA1c\<9 with who have wound 4weeks or longer with infection with following interventions: 1. Finger prick test for HbA1c measurement 2. Punch biopsy 3. VAC sponge collection 4. Ankle brachial index
Diabetic patients with HbA1c\<9 who have wound 4 weeks or longer without infection with following interventions: 1. Finger prick test for HbA1c measurement 2. Punch biopsy 3. VAC sponge collection 4. Ankle brachial index
HbA1c measurement with finger prick method
Wound site will be anaesthetized, by punch biopsy tissue will be collected, wound site will be monitored for bleeding(if bleeding Cautery will be used to stop bleeding).
Twenty-eight diabetic subjects with chronic foot ulcer(s) that are receiving Negative Wound Pressure Therapy (NPWT) will be enrolled. Eighteen subjects will be infected and 10 subjects will be non-infected serving as the control for the study. The inclusion and exclusion criteria were carefully selected to enroll diabetic patients who have wound tissue oxygenation adequate to support wound healing.
