Filter by:The primary aim of the study is to determine the amount of newly formed vital bone, residual graft material, and "connective tissue/other" 18 to 20 weeks after ridge preservation is performed using DFDBA fibers alone, DFDBA particulate alone, a combination of xenograft and DFDBA particulate, or a combination of xenograft and DFDBA fibers.
In the proposed study, we will apply Prevena on the surgical wound right after closure of the wound in the operating theater. Prevena will be used for 7 days, unless there is ongoing infection or much wound drainage that requires debridement. Most periprosthetic joint infections are from hematogenous origin. Hence, it is considered clean wound unless there is a discharging sinus.
Diabetes is a highly prevalent chronic disease that affects a large part of the world's population. Among the most costly complications is the diabetic foot ulcer, where its decompensation can result in limb amputation, a risk 10 to 20 times more frequent for diabetic population. Two underlying pathophysiological mechanisms are mainly identified: neuropathy and problems associated with vasculature and blood supply, in addition to the incidence of infections, which further impairs prognosis. Skin regeneration involves several overlapping and consecutive stages, which in the case of a diabetic patient are altered. Although healing protocols have been significantly improved at the country level, and there is also a large amount of medical supplies for treatment of these wounds, there are still patients with ulcers refractory to this care that end in amputation. In response to this, new treatments have emerged that use biomaterials and cells of the patient himself, which attempt to emulate the architecture and functionality of normal tissue. Cell therapy has gained strength in recent years, with more and more studies indicating the positive effect of cell application on healing of chronic wounds with underlying pathologies, such as diabetes. The product to be evaluated corresponds to a combined medical device, which conveys a cellular therapy, known as InbioDerm+C. The purpose of this Phase II clinical study is to determine whether InbioDerm+C treatment plus advanced healing is equal to or superior to advanced healing in a diabetic population with Wagner II grade foot ulcer treated in Villa Alemana primary care family centers, Las Américas, Juan Bautista Bravo Vega and Eduardo Frei.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of Micro/nanobubbles (MNB's) for the healing of acute and chronic wounds.
The prevalence of chronic wounds is around 2 million people in France per year. A chronic wound is a wound that has been evolving for more than 6 weeks. The main causes are: venous causes, arterial causes and microcirculatory causes. In some aetiologies (particularly arterial causes), there is no radical therapeutic solution (no possibility of revascularisation) and the wounds are often difficult to treat and may even eventually lead to amputation. The recommendations for treating wounds are (in addition to carrying out an etiological treatment when possible) to carry out mechanical detersion and to maintain a moist wound environment. In addition to various medical devices such as dressings, adjuvant treatments that are not specific to the etiology of the wound, such as electrotherapy, negative pressure therapy or other devices such as the VistaCare®, are indicated in France.
The aim of the study is to assess the effect of topical melatonin loaded gelatin sponge on donor palatal site healing, after palatal graft harvesting.
The use of topical beta-blockers, such as 0.25% timolol, in promoting wound healing is currently emerging in the literature. The investigators will enroll 30 participants in a split scar study who have their skin cancer surgically removed resulting in a linear wound equal to or longer than 4cm. The objective of this randomized study is to determine the safety and efficacy of 0.25% timolol in promoting wound healing in wound closed primarily greater than or equal to 1.5 cm.
Despite the high numbers of cesareans being performed, scientific evidence behind which surgical techniques are best remains uncertain. Our objective is to determine if subcuticular absorbable staples improve operative time and wound cosmetics.
The purpose of this study is to determine the potential influence of sun protection on the aesthetic outcome of post-surgical scars following the reconstruction of Mohs micrographic surgery defects via linear repair. This study will be performed as a randomized split-wound study. Half of the wound will be treated with zinc containing sunscreen and the other half of the wound would not be treated. Three-months post-surgery, the scar will be evaluated via the patient observer scar assessment scale (POSAS), a validated scar instrument, as well as a colorimeter to measure the amount of vascularity, and hyperpigmentation between the treated and the non-treated area compared to the 'surrounding skin' defined as skin in the proximity but not adjacent to the wound. Any adverse events will also be recorded.
