The benefits of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy with RLP068 in the management of diabetic foot ulcers

What the authors concluded

Based on available evidence, the authors of this article treated some patients with DFUs; four exemplary cases are reported here, showing results in agreement with the clinical study, obtained in the real-life setting.

Devices that emit this wavelength

Matched on wavelength within 15nm, since LED bins vary by roughly that much and a tighter match would be false precision. Where we have an irradiance figure, the session length is the time needed to reach this study's dose of 60 J/cm² at that intensity.

Matching a wavelength is not the same as reproducing a trial. Session times assume the device's published irradiance is accurate at the distance it was measured, which on brand-claim figures is often optimistic. Where a device publishes both a peak and an average we use the average, and where it publishes a falloff curve we use the lowest figure, so these times run long rather than short. Clinical protocols also control for spot size, contact and skin type in ways a home device cannot.
