Study Details

Brief summary:

This study will evaluate Matrion™ (LifeNet Health, Inc., Virginia Beach, VA), a placental membrane product, as a treatment for diabetic foot ulcers compared to conventional wound care. Matrion is derived from donated human birth tissue and includes both the amniotic and chorionic layers, along with the trophoblast layer. It is minimally processed using a proprietary decellularization method and terminally sterilized to ensure the membrane is acellular and sterile, making it suitable for surgical applications.

Conventional Wound Management

Interventions

Graft Application

Place the graft on the debrided DFU and secure. Follow with conventional care wound management (dressings and off-loading). Product may be applied weekly.

Wound Dressing Material

The wound will be debrided and undergo a moist-wound therapy and will be covered with a gauze that is appropriate for the type of wound (moist or dry). Dressings will cover each wound wound for at least 5 days, but no more than 9 days, (7 days +/- 2 days) until the next study visit. Off-loading of the wound is required.

Primary outcome measure

  • Wound Healing [ Time Frame: 12 Weeks ]
