Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether complex linear closure vs second intention healing for cutaneous wounds below the knee affects esthetic outcomes (primary outcome). As secondary outcome, the study team plans to look at patient quality of life measures and complications. This will be a prospective, 2-arm, randomized, evaluator-blinded clinical trial. One half of the patients will receive repair by complex linear closure and the other half of the patients will undergo second intention healing. Three-months post-surgery, the scar will be evaluated via the patient observer scar assessment scale (POSAS), a validated scar instrument, as well as the trace-to-tape method, an objective outcome measure for linear postoperative scars. In addition, patients will be provided a validated quality of life survey to complete. Any adverse events will also be recorded.
This study is a cross-sectional survey in patients who underwent treatment of chronic cutaneous wounds from a nationally representative sample in our hospital from January 2018 to December 2018.
This is an open, evaluator blinded, intra-comparative, randomized, non-inferiority investigation prior to CE mark to confirm safety and performance of the SWIS device when used as intended, i.e. as an irrigation solution for mechanical rinsing of breached or compromised skin as a result from acute wounds.
The goal of this study is to perform a randomized clinical trial to assess the effects of vitamin C versus placebo on wound healing in mandibular fracture patients.
This study will evaluate the use of free autologous dermal fat grafting (also called free dermal fat autografting) to treat complex craniofacial wounds that have failed standard treatment and to understand how well these grafts work to repair wounds long term. Patients who have undergone free autologous dermal fat grafting to treat complex craniofacial wounds 2-30 years ago will have photographs and small biopsies taken of the area that was grafted.
This study will evaluate the use of free autologous dermal fat grafting (also called free dermal fat autografting) to treat complex craniofacial wounds that have failed standard treatment and to understand how well these grafts work to repair wounds long term. Patients who have undergone free autologous dermal fat grafting to treat complex craniofacial wounds less than 1 week ago will have photographs and small biopsies taken of the area that was grafted. Patients will be followed for 2 years to monitor the area that was grafted.
The purpose of this research study is to learn about a new device, Autologous Regeneration of Tissue (ART), for collecting skin grafts from participant's own skin.
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.
The aim of this study is to compare negative pressure wound therapy to traditional care after split-thickness skin grafting in patients aged over 18.
The use of topical beta-blockers, such as 0.25% timolol, in promoting wound healing is currently emerging in the academic literature. The investigators will enroll 82 patients who have their skin cancer surgically removed resulting in the need of a full-thickness skin graft. The objective of this randomized safety study is to determine the safety and efficacy of 0.25% timolol in promoting wound healing in full-thickness skin grafts compared to standard of care.
