Obtaining and Storing Blood Samples and Debridement Samples for Wound Related Research

Completed

Conditions studied: Venous Insufficiency

In brief

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.
