Abstract:
In recent years, as a powerful supplement to the randomized controlled trial (RCT), real world study (RWS) has received more and more attention. However, in the field of chronic wounds, most of the patients have complex condition, and the strict inclusion and exclusion criteria of RCT were lack of practical application values. The RWS provides data closer to the real medical environment in clinical medical practice, drug and medical device supervision, and health technology evaluation. However, RWS has some problems that need to be resolved, such as inconsistent diagnostic criteria and unclear research endpoints. In addition, RWS in chronic wound research in China seems to have not really started yet, and institutions at all levels need to work together to promote the development of RWS.
