- Change in the BWAT-CUA score for the primary lesion [ Time Frame: Basline to week 12 ]The Bates Jensen Wound Assessment Tool (BWAT) CUA score ranges from a minimum score of 8 (best) to a maximum score of 40 (worst)
- Change in Pain VAS score [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]The Pain Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score ranges from a minimum score of 0 (no pain) to 100 (worst possible pain)
- Change in the Wound-QoL score [ Time Frame: Basline to Week 12 ]The Wound Quality of Life scale is a validated self-assessment tool that has been shown to be feasible for assessing health-related quality of life in patients with chronic wounds. Lower scores are associated with a better quality of life as reported by the patient.
- Change in the BWAT total score for the primary lesion [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]The Bates Jensen Wound Assessment Tool (BWAT) score ranges from a minimum score of 9 (best) to a maximum score of 65 (worst) score
- Qualitative wound image evaluation for the primary lesion [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]
- Rate of change in opioid use as measured in morphine milligram equivalents (MME) [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]
