Clinical Trials

Chronic leg ulcers are a significant cause of morbidity in developing countries like India, leading to excessive health care expenses and loss of effective work hours. Various novel methods are available, like vacuum assisted closure, offloading technique nanosilver dressings etc, in order to facilitate earlier recovery with a varied response among the patients.

Diabetic ulcers affect morbidity, mortality and QOL of patients. Wound debridement and dressing using antiseptics are part of standard treatment. Silver stream solution containing silver ions, menthol, glycerol and surfactant has shown promising results in chronic DFU. But no clinical trials have been conducted yet. The aim of the study was to compare effectiveness of silver stream solution with traditionally used povidone iodine in healing diabetic ulcers.

Fifty patients completed the study. Ionic Silver Solution and Super Oxidized Solution both were found to be effective in improving the overall wound condition. However, Ionic Silver Solution was found to be more effective than Super Oxidized Solution in the healing of chronic wounds.

A case study of a 43-year old female 5 days after the abdominal wall and bilateral thighs liposuction with small intestine perforations, septic shock and acute renal failure. Resulted in discharge after 5 months of hospitalization.

Objective: To Study the effect of silver nitrate solution over conventional dressings in management of chronic lower limb ulcers. Conclusion: :Silver nitrate solution dressings appears more effective when compared with conventional dressings in the treatment of chronic lower limb ulcers, with effectively lower duration of hospital stay and earlier return to work.

The permutations and combinations of the Ilizarov ring fixator make it a versatile tool and almost a salvage procedure, it addresses all the problems of open or infected musculo-skeletal injuries and achieves union in up to 90 percent cases.

Conclusion: A topical liquid silver nitrate solution with menthol is a viable option for wound cleansing in venous stasis ulcerations. Wound cleansing with this agent may reduce overall pain. Improvements in wound bed appearance in this case series suggest further studies are needed to determine impact on biofilm in these wounds.

A collection of case studies showcasing the efficacy of SilverStream wound care solution for diabetic ulcers, venous ulcers, pressure ulcers, burns, trauma cases, and other wounds and abscesses.

Normal Saline (NS) is commonly used for irrigation of chronic wounds. Other irrigation solutions are available, but there is
limited evidence supporting their clinical effectiveness. We sought to investigate the efficacy of a topical wound irrigation product containing 0.01% silver nitrate solution (SNS).
