This research proposes a mobile and cloud-based framework for the automatic detection of diabetic foot ulcers conducts an investigation its performance. The system uses cross-platform which enables deployment apps to multiple platforms using single TypeScript code base. A deep convolutional neural network was deployed platform where app could send photographs patient's feet inference detect presence ulcers. functionality usability were tested in two clinical settings: Salford Royal NHS...

A recent multi-centre observational evaluation investigated the effect of a topical haemoglobin spray (Granulox, Infirst), used as an adjunct to standard care, on wound size reduction in 17 patients (4 females/13 males) with 20 chronic diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) over 4-week period. In 14 18 wounds that completed (one patient dropped out due infection) there was mean 53.8% (range: 11.9-100%). The product acceptable both and clinicians, who all found it easy use.

We previously demonstrated in both a longitudinal study and meta-analysis (pooled relative-risk RR, 2.45) that all-cause mortality is significantly higher people with diabetes foot ulceration (DFU) than those without ulcer. In this prospective study, we looked at the factors linked to after presentation podiatry DFU.Ninety-eight individuals recruited consecutively from Salford Royal Hospital Multidisciplinary Foot Clinic Spring 2016 were followed up for 48 months. Data concerning health...

Aim: The aim of this multi-centre observational evaluation was to assess the percentage reduction in wound area non-healing diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), treated with Granulox haemoglobin spray over a 4-week period. Secondary outcome parameters—for example, adverse events, patient acceptability and ease use—were also recorded. Method: After run-in-period (2 weeks for existing patients 4 new patients) determine if wounds were despite receiving local best practice, whose had decreased size by...

Objective: To obtain clinical evidence on the use of a collagen wound dressing in patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). Method: A convenience sample managed podiatry outpatient clinic over an 8-month period were included evaluation, if their DFUs not progressing. All participants received traditional adjunctive care as part treatment. Wound surface-area measurements and imaging was carried out regular basis to allow tracking healing. Results: Six patients, seven wounds this study. There...

Objective: This open, non-comparative, multi-centre investigation examines the use of a new superabsorbent polymer (SAP) wound dressing used for exudate management (in medium-to-high exuding wounds) in patient population with variety types. The primary objective this study was to evaluate fluid capabilities dressing. Method: Both acute and chronic wounds moderate-to-high production levels were assessed (over period two weeks) as requiring management, SAP dressing, Zetuvit Plus (designated...
