Clinical performance and cost-effectiveness of a Silicone foam with 3DFit™ technology in chronic wounds compared with standard of care: An open randomised multicentre investigation.

ABSTRACT: The objective of the study was to show the clinical performance and cost-effectiveness of a Silicone foam dressing with 3DFit™ Technology compared to current standard of care. This was an open-labelled, two-arm, randomised controlled multicentre study conducted from February to December 2023. One hundred and two participants with an exuding, non-infected and chronic ulcer were randomised in a 1:1 fashion and treated with either a Silicone foam with 3DFit™ Technology or standard of care (a filler combined with a secondary dressing), stratified by venous leg ulcers and diabetic foot ulcers. After a 4-week study period, wound size and total costs were evaluated. After 4 weeks of treatment, a comparable percentage in wound area reduction was observed in both treatment arms with mean and 95% co
