NCT ID: NCT06178367 Completed - Xerosis Cutis Clinical Trials

Effectiveness and Safety of Topical Hyaluronic Acid of Different Molecular Weights in Xerotic Skin Treatment

Start date: August 26, 2023
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare 0,1% topical low molecular weight (7 kDa) hyaluronic acid with 0,1% high molecular weight (1.800 kDa) hyaluronic acid as therapy of xerotic skin in elderly

NCT ID: NCT05046015 Completed - Xerosis Cutis Clinical Trials

Comparison Dry Foot Skin Between Diabetic and Non-diabetic Subjects and the Effects of Two Cosmetic Foot Care Products

Start date: September 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The overall aims of this study are to compare the structure and function of dry to very dry and cracked foot skin between diabetic and nondiabetic subjects and to evaluate the effects of two cosmetic leave-on products on dry and fissured diabetic foot skin. Specific issues are: Are there any differences between the morphological and functional characteristics of dry to very dry and cracked skin foot between diabetic and nondiabetic subjects? What are the effects of a 4-week once daily application of an intensive care foot ointment (urea 10% foot ointment) or foot lotion (10% Urea foot lotion) on the skin barrier and on clinical signs of dryness and fissures?

NCT ID: NCT04253704 Completed - Xerosis Cutis Clinical Trials

Effects of 2% IDL Lotion on Skin Hydration and Transepidermal Water Loss in Females With Dry Skin

Start date: February 13, 2017
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This was a placebo-controlled double-blinded trial to compare effects of 2% IDL lotion to placebo in female subjects with dry skin. Primary endpoints were skin hydration (NovaMeter) and transepidermal water loss (VapoMeter).

NCT ID: NCT04127513 Completed - Xerosis Cutis Clinical Trials

Comparison of 12% Ammonium Lactate and 10% Urea Cream in Geriatric With Xerosis Cutis

Start date: April 1, 2017
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety between moisturizing cream containing 12% ammonium lactate and 10% urea in geriatric with xerosis cutis. A double-blind randomized controlled trial with matching paired subject was conducted on 40 residents of a nursing home in Jakarta. Specified symptom sum score (SRRC), skin capacitance (SCap), transepidermal water loss (TEWL), and side effects were measured at baseline, week-2 and week-4 after therapy, and week-5 one week after therapy cessation. After a week of preconditioning, each subject received two different moisturizing creams to be applied on separate lower limbs.

NCT ID: NCT03824886 Completed - Pressure Ulcer Clinical Trials

Enhancing SKIN Health and Safety in Aged CARE

SKINCARE
Start date: October 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Aged long-term care receivers are affected by various adverse skin conditions like pressure ulcers, incontinence-associated dermatitis, dryness, intertrigo and many more. Prevention of these skin problems and the provision of general hygiene and skin care activities are key areas of nursing practice. Numerous condition specific guidelines are available and are implemented separately. The more guidelines exist, the more difficult it is for nurses to implement them all. On the other hand, there is a huge overlap in terms of aetiology, pathogenesis and prevention of aforementioned skin conditions. The overall aim of this trial is to test the feasibility and to estimate possible effects of a comprehensive skin care package targeting main nursing relevant skin problems at the same time. Therefore a study will be performed in nursing homes of the state of Berlin comparing the skin care package to standard care. Residents' safety and subjective wellbeing will increase combined with improvements in professional competence of nurses. An advisory board consisting of international experts agreed already to supervise the trial.

NCT ID: NCT03093597 Completed - Xerosis Cutis Clinical Trials

Skin Barrier Biophysical Properties and Clinical Appearance After Moisturizer in Dry Skin

Start date: March 27, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of the study is to compare the changes in the appearance of dry skin after the use various moisturizers: white petrolatum ointment, coconut oil, jojoba oil, and almond oil in patients with dry skin.

NCT ID: NCT02557698 Completed - Xerosis Cutis Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Using an Oil Bath Additive

Start date: November 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Epidermis that lacks moisture and/or sebum presents as dry skin, which is often characterized by a pattern of fine lines, scaling and itching. In dry skin, the barrier function may be compromised. Skin care practices to decrease the risk of development of dry skin and/or to improve dry skin condition have barely been investigated. Bathing with bath oils has been shown to increase skin hydration, thus helping to stabilize skin barrier function. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the effect of bathing every other day on the skin barrier. Functional parameters, such as TEWL, stratum corneum hydration (SCH) and skin-pH (pH) were measured to characterize skin barrier function.

NCT ID: NCT02216526 Completed - Xerosis Cutis Clinical Trials

Skin Health and Effectiveness of Standardized Skin Care Regimens in Nursing Home Residents

Start date: September 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Residents of institutional long-term care facilities are at high risk for developing skin and tissue diseases, e.g. xerosis cutis (including pruritus), infections (e.g., tinea pedis, candidiasis), chronic wounds or neoplastic changes (e.g. actinic keratosis, malignant melanoma) but there are few epidemiological figures about the actual frequencies of these conditions in nursing homes. Therefore, in the first part of this study we aim at measuring key dermatological conditions and associated health and functional status, and the skin care practice of aged nursing home residents ("prevalence study"). Basic skin care interventions are believed to reduce skin dryness and to enhance skin health. Thus, the second aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of two structured skin care regimens compared to the routine standard skin care on skin health in nursing home residents ("intervention study"). The study will be conducted in a random sample of seven out of approximately 300 institutional long term care facilities of the federal state of Berlin.
