- Device: Wound Sheet Matrix 2-Layer and Powder Urinary Bladder Matrix
Porcine-derived extracellular matrix will be used in powder and 2-Layer wound sheet form in masses up to 1000 mg. Each product is intended for a one-time use only.
- Rate of Wound Closure [ Time Frame: Up to 3 month visit ]Percentage of wound closure
- Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for Pain [ Time Frame: Up to 3 month visit ]VAS is a psychometric response scale that measures subjective characteristics or attitudes regarding perceived pain levels from participants. Participants are asked to draw a line on a 10cm horizontal line indicating what their current pain level would be. The distance between the start of the horizontal line to the vertical line is calculated in cm with a higher score (10cm) indicating a greater pain intensity.
- Katz Index of Independence in Activities of Daily Living (KATZ ADL) [ Time Frame: Up to 3 month visit ]The Katz ADL is a 6-item questionnaire measuring independence in activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, toileting, transfers, feeding, and continence. Each item is dichotomized as either having a score of zero (i.e dependence) or one (i.e. independence). An overall score of 6 indicates full function and an overall score of 2 or less indicates severe functional impairment
- Wound Related Adverse Events [ Time Frame: Up to 3 month visit ]Number and type of wound related adverse events as recorded on adverse event case report forms
