Design
-
The clinical trial includes a control group, two-arm parallel-group, double-blind randomized, phase III concludes 80 patients. block randomization was defined by using https://www.studyrandomizer.com/.

80 volunteer patients who refer to the Wound and Tissue Repair Research Center of the University of Medical Sciences, Academic Center for Education, Culture, and Research, will be examined by a dermatologist. After meeting the criteria, they will be divided into treatment and control groups. All of the patients will receive the same standard treatments, debridement of necrotic and infected tissues, and foam and Alginate bandages for reduction of the pressure. For the treatment group, cells will be injected into 5 spots (one into the middle and 4 into the margins) and for the control group, normal saline will be injected into the same spots. They will be under regular supervision for 48 hours and again evaluated on the first, second, fourth, sixth, and fifth week and again on third, fourth, fifth, and sixth-month post-injection
