Dehydrated human amnion/chorion tissue in difficult-to-heal DFUs: a case series
Journal of Wound Care
|March 14, 2015
Summary
Dehydrated human amniotic/chorionic membrane allografts (dHACM) effectively healed diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) in five patients. This regenerative treatment accelerated healing, even with patient non-adherence, suggesting dHACM as a promising DFU therapy.
Area of Science:
- Regenerative Medicine
- Wound Healing
- Diabetology
Background:
- Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a serious complication of diabetes, often leading to poor healing, recurrence, amputation, and increased mortality.
- Neuropathy and peripheral vascular disease significantly impair DFU healing.
- Current DFU treatments include debriding agents, alginate, hydrocolloids, and amniotic membrane allografts.
