Filter by:Reliable scar assessment is essential not only when designing clinical trials to investigate the efficacy of new and existing scar therapies, but also in everyday, clinical practice, to examine the progress of our patients' care. Subjective assessments are extremely important; they demonstrate to the patient the changes and improvements in their scars since the primary burn injury. Nevertheless, clinicians require reliable, validated, and objective tools which can yield measurable and reproducible outcomes. These are ultimately needed to achieve the goal of reducing the physical and psychosocial burden of scarring through compelling research. Previously, a pilot study (BOSS-1) was conducted in 55 patients with post burn hypertrophic scars. The investigators measured, among other parameters, scar thickness, density, and pliability, using a panel of objective scar assessment tools, alongside standard subjective measurements (questionnaire-based), and skin biopsy assessments. Measurements were performed at a single time point which varied from 3 months to 6 years post burn injury. This work indicated that measuring scar thickness, pliability and colour together, may provide a global scar objective score. BOSS-2 is a multi-centre study that will validate the preliminary findings in BOSS-1.
Long-term prognostic value of macrovascular and microvascular coronary artery stenoses in each type of cardiomyopathy.
The investigators sought to evaluate the morphological and functional changes and prognosis of participants with unexplainable precordial deep T-wave inversion on ECG and with apical thickness less than 15mm. The conduction of this study was largely due to the increased clinical requirement, which reflected the increased awareness among physicians of missed AHCM.
The goal of this study is to establish the safety of high fluence LED-RL from 160 J/cm2 up to 640 J/cm2 in healthy subjects. The hypothesis is that high fluence LED-RL phototherapy is safe in human skin.
This prospective evaluation studies the effectiveness of Intralesional (IL) cryotherapy with a argon gas based device in treating keloids and hypertrophic scars in population consisting of all Fitzpatrick skin type patients
Neodyne has developed an investigational dressing for post-operative incision care. Neodyne is conducting this research to study whether the investigational dressing, called the Neodyne Dressing, can minimize scar formation in a simple manner.
