Comparative effectiveness of a bioengineered living cellular construct vs. a dehydrated human amniotic membrane allograft for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers in a real world setting

Abstract: We evaluated the comparative effectiveness of a bioengineered living cellular construct (BLCC) and a dehydrated human amnion/chorion membrane allograft (dHACM) for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). Using a wound carespecific electronic medical record database, we assessed real-world outcomes in 218 patients with 226 DFUs receiving treatment in 2014 at 99 wound care centers. The analysis included DFUs 1 and <25 cm 2 with duration <=1 year and area reduction 20% in 14 days prior to treatment (N=163, … Show more

“…78,79 Studies comparing dHACMs to bioengineered skin substitutes have had various outcomes. 80,81 Another area of interest is the use of cryopreserved umbilical cord as adjunctive therapy. Small retrospective studies show that it may be helpful in wound healing, but RCTs are warranted to evaluate its true efficacy.…”

“…Living cellular construct (LCC) consists of a three‐dimensional bovine collagen matrix seeded with keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts derived from human neonatal foreskin . LCC was the first allogenic cell‐based graft approved by the Food and Drug Administration and it has been shown to enhance wound healing and likelihood of complete wound closure in chronic wounds, diabetic foot ulcers, and venous leg ulcers .…”

“…By way of example, over the past decade, the USWR has consistently reported an average of 2.2 wounds per patient from its national database. This is significantly different from another national database, which reported an average of only 1 wound per patient . Since these datasets are of similar size and geographic distribution, were both obtained from hospital‐based outpatient wound centers, and represent wounds of similar etiologies, we must assume that the substantial difference in the number of wounds noted per patient is related somehow to registry methodology.…”
