Fig 2 Cox regression analysis for effect of group assignment on ulcer-free survival time (n=38). Overall group assignment and assignment to group 1 are significant.

Fig 3 Survival analysis of group assignment in a subsample with at least 1 previous pressure ulcer, controlling for time since last surgical closure (n=20). Group assignment was not significant, and there was a nonsignificant trend for time since last closure.

Fig 4 Survival analysis of group assignment in subsample with at least 1 previous pressure ulcer surgery (n=21). Neither overall group assignment nor assignment to group 1 was significant.

Fig 5 Survival analysis of group assignment in subsample with no previous pressure ulcer surgery (n=17). There was a nonsignificant trend for overall group assignment, and assignment to group 1 was significant.

Fig 6 Survival analysis of group assignment controlling for location of study ulcer (n=38). Overall group assignment and assignment to group 1 were significant; there was a nonsignificant trend for overall location of ulcer, and having an ulcer on a trochanter was significant.

Fig 7 Survival analysis of location of study ulcer controlling for group assignment (n=38). There was a nonsignificant trend for overall location of ulcer, and having an ulcer on a trochanter was significant; overall group assignment and assignment to group 1 were significant (same analysis as for fig 6).
