Dulcet Trial Summary
This trial studies if a device that uses sound waves can help improve blood flow in people with diabetic foot ulcers.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 22 or older with diabetes and a mild diabetic foot ulcer. They must also have peripheral arterial disease (PAD) confirmed by specific tests like ABI, TBI, or toe blood pressure measurements. People can't join if they have severe kidney disease on dialysis, certain stages of PAD, extremely high HbA1c levels (>13%), recent revascularization procedures, mixed vascular diseases, recent acute limb ischemia, deep vein thrombosis in the treatment leg, or are in another study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing a therapeutic ultrasound device called VibratoSleeve to see if it improves blood flow in the legs of patients with diabetic foot ulcers. The goal is to determine whether this non-invasive treatment can help heal ulcers by enhancing circulation.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the trial involves a non-significant risk device that uses ultrasound therapy there may be minimal side effects such as slight discomfort at the site of application or skin irritation. However, detailed side effects will be monitored throughout the study.
