NCT ID: NCT06223269 Active, not recruiting - Wound Heal Clinical Trials

Safety and Efficacy of realSKIN® to Provide Complete Wound Closure of Burn Wounds as an Alternative to Autografting

Start date: January 10, 2024
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of realSKIN® to provide complete wound closure of mixed-depth, full-thickness burn wounds as an alternative treatment to autografting.

NCT ID: NCT05652816 Recruiting - Burn Degree Second Clinical Trials

Biological Skin Graft With Keratinocyte-stem Cell Co-cultre for Burn Patients

Start date: September 6, 2022
Phase: Early Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether artificial skin graft can substitute autologous skin graft in current burn treatment. The main question it aims to answer is: • Can artificial skin graft result in better wound healing compared to the current burn treatment; autologous skin graft? You will: - Undergo debridement surgery - Receive artificial skin graft as an alternative to autologous skin graft - Undergo biopsy procedure of burn area If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare autologous skin graft group to see the wound healing process

Low Dose Vitamin C in Burns >20% Compared to Previous Studies With High Dose Vitamin C

Start date: December 12, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Burn injury is marked by a large release of inflammatory mediators which disrupt the normal capillary barrier and cause a rapid shift of intravascular fluid into interstitial spaces, ultimately leading to shock and death. As such, adequate fluid management and resuscitation is critical for burn patients to prevent further cellular injury. Technologies and medical options such as cardiac output monitoring along with early tube feeding and vitamin C administration have developed slowly over the years. Effective management of the Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome response and metabolic derangement is crucial for the survival of burn patients. In particular, vitamin C administration has shown to significantly decreases early post-burn lipid peroxidation, reduce microvascular leak of fluid by preventing endothelial dysfunction, and decreases edema formation in burned tissue. Vitamin C is a cheap and widely available antioxidant which has been shown to significantly effective in positively impacting clinical outcomes in burn resuscitation. We aim to evaluate the efficacy of vitamin C in burns greater than 20% total body surface area on clinical outcomes such as length of hospital stay, total fluid requirements, and mortality.

The Treatment Challenges and Limitation in High-Voltage Pediatric Electrical Burn at Rural Area

Start date: August 7, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

A case of high-voltage pediatric electrical burn involving a fully conscious 13-year old boy who was admitted to the emergency room after being electrocuted by high-voltage power cable, with superficial partial thickness burn over right arm, trunk, and left leg (26% of total body surface area) with cardiac abnormality e.g. tachycardia and non-specific ST depression. Treatments were based on Australian New Zealand Burns Association algorithm with several modifications, i.e. administering lower concentration of oxygen with nasal cannula instead of non-rebreathing mask and intravenous Ketorolac and Metamizole as analgesic instead of morphine due to limitation in infrastructure and knowledge. The patient underwent surgical debridement and strict observation with no signs of abnormality found during hospital stay. Wound dressing consisted of silver sulfadiazine, Sofra-tulle® and dry sterile gauze were used until epithelialization. After the wound healed, the patient resumed wearing elastic bandage and moisturizer on the wound area. The patient was observed daily through 7 days of hospitalization and followed-up for 1 year, achieving normal physiologic function of the affected area but unsatisfactory esthetic result. This case report showed that there is still a lack of burn prevention programs in the rural area, resulted in inadequate first aid application for electrical burn. There is a need for acknowledging and maximizing the implementation of available standardized guidelines e.g. Australian New Zealand Burns Association by giving homogenized training to personnel as well as providing feasible equipment, and then followed by strict monitoring for the patient. The focus of the burn program should also include burn rehabilitation, psychosocial needs and any complaints needing expert opinion in an outpatient setting in addition to adequate burn management for life saving and good wound healing.

Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of Nefopam Cream in Burn Patients

Start date: July 10, 2022
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Burn patients very commonly develop abnormal scars after injury which can be red, raised or elevated, painful and very itchy. They can prevent normal movement of hands and other joints and lead to ugly deformities which makes physical and psychological recovery very difficult. This proposal seeks to test the usefulness of a cream called Nefopam to prevent and treat these bad scars after burns and other injury to the skin. Nefopam is a drug that has been used as a pain medicine in Europe but has been found to have anti-scarring properties in rats and pigs. It has been tested in healthy people and found to be well tolerated and safe. The study purposes to make a scratch in the hip skin in 60 adult burn patients at two burn unit sites, the University of Alberta and the University of California at Davis, Sacramento CA. Burn patients in the study will have a scratch wound in the skin of the each side of the hip, part way through the thickness of the skin which is shallow at first but gets deeper. This scratch is made with a special guide which precisely controls the length and depth of the scratch so that each scratch is the same. Part of the scratch heals without scar and the deeper part heals with a red raised scar over a small region less than 2 inches long. One side will be treated with the drug and the other with a control or placebo are in a white cream that is indistinguishable, where you cannot tell which side contains the drug. Once the wound is nearly healed, usually less than 21 days, the cream will be applied twice daily for three weeks. Measurements will be done about once per month for four months where the healing scratches will be photographed, measurements of the thickness made with ultrasound and mexameter for scar color or pigment and redness. Ultrasound is a painless probe that uses sound waves to measure scar thickness and mexameter is a painless probe on the surface of the scratch to measure color and redness. Both measurements take only minutes to complete. Patients will be asked to answer a scar assessment form about on how they feel each scratch during the treatment and the research staff will also the complete scar form as well. It is the aim of the study to find a cream the works to prevent and reduce scarring after burn injury in military or civilian patients. In the future, an useful cream for scarring in burn patients may also be helpful for other skin damage which leads to scarring.
