Hyperspectral Imaging to Assess and Predict Diabetic Foot Ulcers

NCT00617916 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Study Summary

This study is designed to test a prototype imaging instrument that relies on Medical HyperSpectral Imaging (MHSI) technology for the assessment and prediction of diabetic foot ulceration and wound healing. The imaging system utilizes the biomarkers of oxyhemoglobin (oxyHb) and deoxyhemoglobin (deoxyHb), in the upper layers of skin on the foot as: a metric for assessing wound healing, a reflection of microvascular disease, and determining tissue at risk for forming new ulcers. MHSI results will also be compare with ABI and TcPO2 measurements.

What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT00617916

The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT00617916 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as an unspecified phase, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 256 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is HyperMed, which has 1 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.

The record links to 1 condition, with Diabetic Foot Ulcers appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 0 interventions. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.

Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT00617916 reports 3 study locations spanning 3 distinct geographic areas — top geographies include California, Ohio, Pennsylvania. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
