Participants sought for skin-ulcer study
Often described as "poor circulation," it occurs when the large leg arteries narrow and restrict blood flow, which can result in skin ulcers and lead to amputation.
A University of Utah physician, Dr. Mark Sarfati, is part of a national research study to see if an investigational medication that promotes new blood vessel growth can delay the time of amputation and/or death.
To participate, an individual must be at least 50 with stable skin ulcers or noninfected gangrene on a foot or leg, diagnosed with peripheral arterial disease at the state of Critical Limb Ischemia and be unsuitable for bypass or revascularization. For information, call 1-888-853-4656 or go online to www.tamarisstudy.com.
