Protocol
- Patients were required to have a wound with no progress in at least 2 weeks under conventional treatment.
- Patients were seen 1 to 2 times per week.
- Debridement occurred at the initial visit, if required, and then limited there after.
- MIRRAGEN® Advanced Wound Matrix was applied to the wound and covered with a cover dressing.
- On subsequent visits, the MIRRAGEN® material was simply washed off with a sterile saline rinse to expose the wound for photos and measurements.
