Further study details as provided by Ohio State University:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Genetic relation in healing vs nonhealing wounds [ Time Frame: 5-12 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Biospecimen Retention:   Samples With DNA

Biospecimen Description:

tissue


Estimated Enrollment: 900
Study Start Date: June 2005
Estimated Study Completion Date: November 2009
Detailed Description:

A single subject will provide 2 tissue samples from a single wound over a 4 week time period and the samples will be categorized as healing versus non-healing responses on the basis of decreased (healing) or increased (non-healing) wound area measurements over the 4-week time period. A chronic wound generally is a wound which shows no signs of significant healing in four weeks or has not healed in eight weeks.
