Incisional dressings aim to prevent contamination of an incisional wound and protect against skin irritation. Surgeons use incisional negative pressure wound therapy (iNPWT) to manage incisional wounds. This study compares a new dressing designed for use with iNPWT that aims to improve comfort, tolerability, and dressing survivability over the standard of care for iNPWT. Further, no evidence exists that shows NPWT reduces the bacterial burden on the skin. This study will compare the incidence of skin irritation, dressing damage or lift, and changes in bacteria flora on healthy volunteer skin.

Participants may walk at a slow pace. - To keep both dressings shielded from sunlight and fluorescent light (e.g. wear pants or cover with elastic bandage) - To protect dressing and not expose to high moisture/water submersion environment. - Limit showering to once per day - To keep the NPWT devices on and connected to dressing at all times except when showering and changing clothes |

Primary | Change in Skin Irritation Score | Skin assessment is performed utilizing the Federal Drug Administration's Combined Evaluation of Skin Irritation and Sensitization utilized by the FDA for assessing topical delivery systems (https://www.fda.gov/media/117569/download). The assessments include photographs of the skin to document any noticeable differences between the two interventions visually.
The dermal response score has eight levels between 0 and 7: 0:No evidence of irritation and 7: Strong reaction spreading beyond the dressing. Refer to the linked document for the entire scale The Other Effects Score (if present) has six characteristics associated with a numerical value: A(0): Slightly glazed appearance, B(1): Markedly glazed appearance, C(2): Glazing with peeling & cracking, F(3): Glazing with fissures, G(3): Film of dried serous exudates covering all or part of the dressing site, H(3): Small petechial erosions and scabs. The sum of the two scores represents the total irritation score. |
Day 1 (Baseline) and Day 7 | |
Secondary | Change in skin flora bioburden | Sterile skin swabs will be performed on approximately a 1 by 1 inch area of the knee cap on day 1 after skin prep and day 7 after removal of the dressings. Swabs will undergo bioburden testing to recover any organisms present on the skin. Day 0 assessments confirms the efficacy of the skin preparation procedure and day 7 measurements reflect rebound of skin flora under the two interventions. | Performed Day 1 (Baseline) and Day 7 | |
Secondary | Dressing Discomfort Assessment | Healthy volunteer self assessment using a visual analogue scale to rate pain/discomfort experienced during study. Volunteers will mark on a 10 cm line their assessment of discomfort. No pain or discomfort indicated by a score of 0. Extreme pain or discomfort indicated by a score of 10. | Assessment performed once a day for 7 days by participant | |
Secondary | Intervention Tolerance Assessment | Healthy volunteer self assessment using a visual analogue scale to rate tolerance of each intervention during the study. Tolerance includes assessment of sound and impact on daily life. Volunteers will mark on a 10 cm line their assessment of discomfort. A score of 0 indicates intervention completely tolerable, does not interfere with daily living. A score of 10 indicates intervention completely intolerable, makes daily living impossible. | Assessment performed once a day for 7 days by participant | |
Secondary | Change in Dressing Lift Incidence (Participant Assessment) | Calculate incidence rate of any dressing lift (lift or rolling) that occurs with each dressing | Assessment performed once a day by participant for Days 1 - 6. Clinician performs assessment at Day 7 | |
Secondary | Change in Dressing Lift Incidence (Clinician Assessment) | Calculate incidence rate of any dressing lift (lift or rolling) that occurs with each dressing | Clinician performs assessment at Day 7 | |
Secondary | Change in Dressing Lift Percentage (Participant Assessment) | The participant or clinician research uses a dressing diagram to indicate dressing lift or damage. Final analysis will calculate the percent area where damage occurred. A separate photograph of the dressing will confirm final assessment. | Assessment performed once a day by participant for Days 1 - 6. | |
Secondary | Change in Dressing Lift Percentage (Clinician Assessment) | The participant or clinician research uses a dressing diagram to indicate dressing lift or damage. Final analysis will calculate the percent area where damage occurred. A separate photograph of the dressing will confirm final assessment. | Clinician performs assessment at Day 7 |
