INJECTHEAL - Investigation of Chronic Wound Exudate and Biofilm

This prospective observational study will collect routine clinical waste material from 72 adults with chronic, non-healing wounds, including wound exudate from negative pressure therapy containers or sponges and wound biofilm/debridement material. Samples and routine clinical wound data will be used to test INJECTHEAL hydrogel components and other wound healing therapeutics, and identify molecular, biochemical, and microbiological biomarkers linked to wound healing.
