Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The intent of this protocol is to obtain blood samples from subjects with or without a wound, so the blood can be used in wound-related scientific studies. It is also the intent of this protocol to salvage debrided wound material that is normally destined for destruction, so it can be used in wound-related scientific studies.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

    Detailed Description

    The samples will be studied in order to attempt to better understand wounds and their associated barriers to healing. Analytical methods used to examine the blood or debridement can investigate morphological, molecular, immunological, cellular, viral, biochemical, chemical, genetic, and/or transcriptional components of the samples. It is the goal of this study to determine if these tests may be able to provide important insights into the keys of wound healing, wound persistence, or wound deterioration.
