This study is testing a new electronic bandage called exciflex for people with chronic wounds, especially those caused by poor blood flow (ischemic wounds). It aims to see if exciflex works better than standard care to help wounds heal. You might be eligible if you are a Veteran with a chronic ischemic wound, particularly if you have a spinal cord injury or diabetes and are receiving wound care. Researchers will measure wound size using special imaging techniques at each bandage change for up to six weeks to see how well the treatment is working. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status.
