Filter by:This study aims to compare between using of diathermy versus scalpel in making skin incision during cesarean section to judge the variations in incisional time, incisional blood loss, postoperative pain, wound healing and wound complications.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (hUCMSC) therapy in patients undergoing medium-thickness skin grafts for donor site wounds. The study aims to answer the following main questions: - Question 1: Does hUCMSC therapy improve the healing quality and speed of donor site wounds in comparison to standard treatment? - Question 2: Does hUCMSC therapy reduce scar formation in the donor site wounds? Participants in this study will undergo medium-thickness skin grafts, and those in the treatment group will receive hUCMSC therapy. The main tasks for participants will involve regular follow-up visits, monitoring of wound healing progress, and assessment of any potential side effects or complications associated with the therapy. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of hUCMSC therapy, researchers will compare the treatment group receiving hUCMSC therapy with a control group that receives standard treatment alone. The aim is to determine if the use of hUCMSC therapy leads to improved healing outcomes and reduced scar formation compared to the standard treatment group.
This research study aims to understand whether visual and written education on wound appearance can improve patients' experience and understanding of what their wound will look like following dermatologic surgery.
Autografting is a surgical procedure to transplant healthy skin (donor skin) from another part of the participant's own body (donor site) to the burned part. Autografting is the usual treatment for DPT burns. It works to close the wound, but can cause other problems: - Donor sites are painful, can become infected or scarred, or can even become full thickness (FT) wounds themselves - Treatment problems can require more grafting - Additional surgery increases the risk of medical problems caused by the treatment Stratatech is trying to find a safe and effective alternative to autografting to promote the healing of severe burns. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether StrataGraft treatment eliminates or reduces the need for autografting and promotes wound closure in a pediatric population with thermal burns that contain intact dermal elements and for which autografting is clinically indicated (DPT burns). Participants will be enrolled into one of two age-based cohorts: 2 to < 12 years and 12 to ≤ 17 years to receive a single application of StrataGraft, in up to 3 non-contiguous DPT burn areas located on the same extremity or plane of the torso. The study will last for approximately 2.5 years.
this project seeks to understand and quantify the effects of powered transtibial prostheses on socket loading and direct measures of residual limb health so as to inform the optimization of prosthesis fit.
This study will gather information on the use of microMend® to repair lacerations in children and compare the efficacy of microMend® to sutures for laceration repair. microMend® has previously been shown to be less painful and easier to use than sutures, which are the current standard of care for primary wound closures. Results of this research will inform how the treatment of laceration repairs in the pediatric patient population.
The aim of the study is to demonstrate that dermal regeneration photosynthetic matrix applied in patients with acute clean skin wound is safe.
This study is a clinical trial testing the safety and efficacy of volar fibroblast (skin cells from the palm or sole) injections for thickening the epidermal (skin) layer at the stump site in people with below the knee amputations. The study will enroll adults seen at Johns Hopkins.
Skin scarring (fibrosis) is a common complication in the wound healing process and remains a therapeutic challenge. Scar formation often occurs following injury to the skin such as surgery, trauma, and burns. The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of visible red light as a modality to reduce skin scarring after mini-facelift surgery. Based on laboratory data, light emitting diode-red light (LED-RL) phototherapy may lessen post-surgical skin fibrosis clinically.
The purpose of this research study is to find our if human amnion membrane powder can be safely used as a covering for wounds and can improve the condition of skin graft donor sites. The amnion powder product is composed of "lyophilized" (freeze-dried), "gamma irradiation sterilized" (exposed to bacteria killing radiation) fragments of amniotic membrane.
