Filter by:This observational study compares the influence of Ringer's Lactate solution and Ringer's Acetate solution on organ function scores following severe burn injury.
This is a study of why and how physicians use albumin during the first 72 hours after a burn injury.
The primary objective of this study of Caldolor administered to hospitalized adult and pediatric burn patients is to determine the efficacy of Caldolor on reducing fever when compared to placebo when administered every 6 hours for at least 24 hours.
To examine the safety and efficacy of Virtual Reality (VR) distraction therapy in burn patients experiencing severe procedural pain during wound care.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of Virtual Reality (VR) technology during Physical Therapy (PT) and/or Occupational Therapy (OT) for patients with burns. Research questions: Do patients have increased joint Range of Motion (ROM) and reduced pain when using VR during PT compared to PT/OT when VR is not used? Do scores on an imaging ability scale correlate with the effects of VR when used with PT/OT? Do adults and children differ in their ability to engage in the virtual world?
This study is intended to fill the knowledge gap regarding the burn population with research that achieves scientific merit. we will determine the effectiveness of the computer decision support system (CDSS) to facilitate glucose management in the critically ill burn patient. The EndoTool™ computer decision support system will achieve glycemic control (defined as 80-110 mg/dL) in a shorter time, reduce glycemic excursion outside of target range, and reduce incidence of hypoglycemia (blood glucose less than 50 mg/dL) in the critically ill burn patient compared to the standard of care USAISR insulin titration protocol (Appendix A).
To study the fibrinogen metabolic changes in relation to coagulation disorder in patients with severe burns and trauma injuries. As a result of the burn or trauma injury breakdown of fibrinogen is accelerated.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of topical Vashe™ Wound Therapy applied to gauze dressing every 6 hours or as necessary to keep dressing moist versus 5% Mafenide Acetate applied to gauze dressing every 6 hours or as necessary to keep dressing moist for a total treatment duration of 5 days.
Compare clinical and biological effects of two enteral tube feeding nutrition formula (immune enhancing diet versus polymeric diet)in severe burn hospitalized patients .
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a treatment of full thickness wounds by the dermal substitute Matriderm, split skin graft and VAC treatment will improve scar quality, demonstrated by a significant increase of skin elasticity parameters after 3 months. Additionally, an increase of the take of graft and improvement of scar assessment scale, scar colour/pigmentation and time to complete wound closure, is expected.
