Sustained silver-releasing dressing in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers.

This study investigated the clinical performance and safety of a sustained silver-releasing foam dressing, Contreet Foam, in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers. Twenty-seven patients with diabetic foot ulcers of grade I or II (Wagner's classification) were followed for six weeks: one week run-in using Biatain dressings, four weeks' treatment with Contreet dressings. Four ulcers healed during the four-week treatment with Contreet 56% in average. Contreet Foam showed good exudate management properties and was considered easy to use. Only two infections occurred showed that all six of the non-study ulcers developed an infection during the study. All ulcers (study ulcers as well as non-study ulcers) were treated according to good practice of diabetic wound care. There were no directions for the treatment of secondary wounds. No device-related adverse events were observed. This study demonstrated that Contreet Foam is safe and easy to use and effectively supports healing and good wound progress of diabetic foot ulcers.
