We Completed A New

Diabetic Foot Ulcer Study!


 

Dr. Schumacher has recently completed a novel study on diabetic foot ulcers at the Achilles Foot Health Centre.  

The study, which ran from 2021 through 2023, investigated a new treatment for ulcerations that have proven difficult to heal by traditional means.  The non-invasive  treatment involves a new way to kill bacteria, viruses and fungi from a wound site, often preventing the closure of wounds.  It could change the landscape on how we treat ulcerations.  Recent work has shown it is promising in a variety of areas, including Covid.  

The study, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group Trial of a Topical Nitric Oxide Releasing Foot Bath As Adjunctive Therapy for Diabetic Foot has been submitted for 2026 publication.

 

We Just Two Studies on a New Way to Treat Warts!


 

In 2025 and 2026 Dr. Schumacher co-authored two papers describing a novel way to treat warts using a chemical treatment developed in Vancouver by SaNOtize.  

Imagine treating warts with no acids, no freezing, no cutting, and no pain!   A third paper is pending.

  • Schumacher Scott A, Dugom Laura, Martins James, Leemhuis Jonathan, Teskey Simon JL, Moore Keith, Miller Chris C  Efficacy and Safety of a Topical Nitric Oxide-Releasing Solution (NORS) as a Noninvasive Treatment for Plantar Warts (Verrucae Plantaris).  Journal of Dermatological Treatment Jan 6, 2026, 37:1, 2610918, DOI 10.1080/09546634.2025.2610918
     

  • Schumacher Scott A, Dugom Laura, Martins James, Teskey Simon, Moore Keith, Miller Chris  Phase 2a Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled Trial of a Topical Nitric Oxide–Releasing Solution (NORS) for the Treatment of Plantar Warts (HPV-Warts-01).
