Summary

This study is being conducted to characterize the way leg wounds respond to a new type of wound dressing, compared to wounds in patients who are not using the new dressing. The investigators will collect wound fluid for biochemical analysis, and they will measure the wound healing that occurs with and without the new dressing.

Eligibility Criteria

  • Able to return to wound clinic for weekly evaluations
  • Has signed Institutional Review Board approved informed consent

Exclusion Criteria

  • Exposed bone or tendon or necrotic wound base
  • Signs or symptoms of cellulitis or osteomyelitis at the target ulcer
  • Allergy to a component of the novel dressing or compression wrap
