Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Tabulations of AEs (Adverse Event), review of CBC (Complete Blood Count) with differential and platelet. [ Time Frame: CBC at initial screening and completion of dose regiment (8 weeks). AE's evaluated per protocol if and when they occur. ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Wound edge healing rate [ Time Frame: Weekly ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Complete Wound Closure [ Time Frame: Weekly ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Detailed Description:

The purpose of this study is to perform a preliminary evaluation of the safety of Revera Wound Care when topically applied to venous leg ulcers for 8 weeks of treatment.

This evaluation will be done through tabulations of adverse events (AE), review of complete blood counts (CBC) with differential and platelet, and measuring wound healing rate.

The secondary purpose of the study is a preliminary evaluation of an increase in the healing rate of venous leg ulcers treated with Revera Wound Care.

This evaluation will be done through measuring wound healing rate (which is also being used to evaluate safety) and complete wound healing.
