Abstract: Six clinical features of chronic skin ulceration are employed to described a new scoring system. When utilized in 50 evaluations of chronic leg ulcers, a significant correlation with independent observations of the same ulcers, based on the clinical judgement of an expert, was obtained. The new method of scoring can be applied with case, requires no special training, and can be used consistently by health workers.
