Microcurrent for Healing Autogenous Skin Donor Sites

Burns Clinical Trial

Official title:
Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Study of the Efficacy of a Silver-coated Nylon Dressing Plus Active or Sham Microcurrent for Healing Autogenous Skin Donor Sites

Clinical Trial Summary

A decrease in donor site wound healing time (as assessed by the research team) of 2 days will be observed with the addition of active microcurrent to silver- coated nylon dressing.

Clinical Trial Description

The specific aims of the study are to evaluate the impact of active versus sham direct microcurrent application to silver nylon dressings in the treatment of donor sites for partial thickness thermal injuries. The primary endpoint is wound-closure time (re-epithelialization of 90% or more of wound surface). Secondary endpoints include pain and infection. Exploratory assessments of clinical outcomes, including inflammation, and pain medication (type, dosage, route, timing) will also be conducted. ;
