Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
wound surface area
imitoMeasure Mobil application: The ImitoMeasure app is a noncontact digital planimetry application that measures wound surface area and offers an advantage over other methods. The introduction of smartphones with high-definition cameras. These devices are not only portable and inexpensive, but they also provide the convenience of on-the-spot assessments.

Study Arms (2)
laser group
ACTIVE COMPARATORIn this group of the study, will receive pulsed High intensity laser therapy (GaAs laser) in addition to traditional wound management for 3 sessions per week for four weeks at 980 nm laser irradiation at 15 W at 20hz laser emission potently stimulates defens in production in keratinocytes via ROS-mediated pathways. While these in vitro parameters highlight mechanistic efficacy, clinical translation for chronic wounds requires: Non-contact scanning techniques
negative pressure wound therapy
ACTIVE COMPARATORIn this group of the study, will receive negative pressure wound therapy in addition to traditional wound management for four weeks.
Interventions
It will be applied to patients with chronic wound
