The mean difference (MD), standardized MD (SMD), or odds ratio (OR) of the studies was calculated.ResultsNine RCTs with 413 participants were included.

A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 166 patients with chronic refractory wounds who met the inclusion criteria at a tertiary hospital in Changsha (from October 2021 to December 2023). The wound healing time was defined as the days of hospital stay until meeting the discharge standard. The collected information includes: diabetes status, average daily hospital expenses, wound type, admission route, availability of medical insurance, age, gender, education level, average daily dressing changes during hospitalization, smoking status, blood platelet level at admission, albumin level at admission, hemoglobin level at admission, creatinine level at admission, and prothrombin time. Then, univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to explore the risk factors affecting the healing time. Subsequently, a risk prediction model was constructed in the form of nomogram based on the risk factors identified, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and decision curve analysis (DCA) were employed to evaluate the prediction performance and calibration of the model. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis indicate that the factors affecting the healing time of chronic refractory wounds include male gender (OR: 2.86, 95% CI: 1.03-7.93, <i>P</i> < .05), diabetes history (OR: 4.05, 95% CI: 1.11-14.85, <i>P</i> < .05), reduced average daily dressing changes during hospitalization (OR: 0.54, 95% CI: 0.31-0.96, <i>P</i> < .05), elevated blood platelet level (OR: 1.01, 95% CI: 1.00-1.01, <i>P</i> < .05), lowered albumin level (OR: 0.87, 95% CI: 0.78-0.97, <i>P</i> < .05), lowered hemoglobin level (OR: 0.97, 95% CI: 0.95-1.00, <i>P</i> < .05), and lowered creatinine level (OR: 0.99, 95% CI: 0.99-1.00, <i>P</i> < .05).

Patients with chronic wounds were randomized to allocate Theruptor, Bactigras, and Allevyn dressings (diabetic and non-diabetic etiology; n = 35 each). Wound area, bacterial load, clinical signs and symptoms, exudate management, and product performance were assessed.ResultsA total of 210 patients with chronic wound in the age range of 19-87 years, were recruited and followed up for 8 weeks. The mean wound area was significantly reduced from Day 0 to Day 56 in in diabetic Theruptor (17.35 ± 15.08 cm<sup>2</sup> vs 4.13 ± 10.56 cm<sup>2</sup>), Bactigras (12.93 ± 12.02 cm<sup>2</sup> vs 3.6 ± 7.75 cm<sup>2</sup>), and Allevyn (14.36 ± 9.97 cm<sup>2</sup> vs 0.74 ± 1.65 cm<sup>2</sup>) and non-diabetic Theruptor (20.45 ± 16.8 vs 3.01 ± 7.52 cm<sup>2</sup>), Bactigras (18.16 ± 14.81 vs 2.52 ± 5.48 cm<sup>2</sup>), and Allevyn (28.41 ± 19.97 vs 5.31 ± 9.94 cm<sup>2</sup>) groups (<i>p < .0001</i>). Further, bacterial load, exudate scores, and clinical signs and symptoms non-significantly improved with time in all three groups (<i>p</i> > .05). In product performance analysis, Theruptor dressing (n = 33/33) was rated more comfortable to wear than Bactigras (n = 24/28, <i>p = .004</i>) and Allevyn (n = 25/30, <i>p = .02</i>) in diabetic patients. Among non-diabetics, more patients reported \"no pain\" during application and removal of dressing in Theruptor group (n = 26/29 and 28/29) than in Bactigras (n = 18/31; <i>p = .04</i> and n = 20/31; <i>p = .02</i>) and Allevyn groups (n = 12/29; <i>p = .001</i> and n = 16/29; <i>p = .003</i>).ConclusionTheruptor provides a safe and effective alternative for chronic wound management with comparable healing outcomes to Bactigras and Allevyn dressings.</p>","PeriodicalId":94229,"journal":{"name":"The international journal of lower extremity wounds","volume":" ","pages":"15347346251351460"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144512988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
