Treatment for Chronic, Non-Healing Ulcers

Diabetic foot ulcers that have not healed despite standard treatment can be a source of significant concern for patients and families. La Pradera's program for non-healing diabetic foot ulcers combines Cuba's Heberprot-P therapy — a treatment designed to support the healing of diabetic foot ulcers — with specialized wound care, infection management, and rehabilitation. The program is designed for international patients whose chronic ulcers have not responded to standard wound care. Our multidisciplinary team evaluates each patient individually and determines whether an international wound-care and limb-preservation program may be appropriate.

Non-Healing Ulcer FAQ for Texas

Can Heberprot-P help non-healing diabetic foot ulcers?

Heberprot-P is designed to support the healing of diabetic foot ulcers, including those that have not responded to standard treatment. Eligibility is determined through medical records review and on-site assessment.

Why isn't my diabetic foot ulcer healing?

Non-healing can be related to factors such as blood flow, infection, pressure, or underlying health conditions. The medical team evaluates these factors during the assessment to design an appropriate treatment plan.

How long does treatment for a non-healing ulcer take?

Treatment programs typically range from 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the ulcer size, severity, duration, and individual response. The exact duration is determined after assessment.

What if my ulcer has been open for a long time?

Chronic ulcers can be more challenging to treat, but the program is designed for these cases. The medical team assesses each case individually to determine whether the program is appropriate.
