Role of Local Skin Incision Infiltration by Oxytocin On Wound Healing
caesarean section rate in Egypt has reached about 60% between primgravidae. Wound complications are of the most common morbidities following cesarean section. The prevalence of wound infection and disruption after cesarean has been reported as 3-15%, averagely speaking 6% and 2-42% in various studies. These complications affect mother's quality of …
A Pilot Study to Evaluate a Temporary Skin Substitute (Spincare® Matrix) for Wound Healing in RDEB Patients
Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) is a subtype of epidermolysis bullosa (EB), an inherited skin condition that presents with blistering skin. The Spincare device, developed by Nanomedic, is the first portable tool that delivers a non-invasive, non-therapeutic electrospun, nanofibrous matrix dressing to wounds to promote healing. The aim of this …
Epidermal Skin Grafts to Improve Healing In Radiation Wounds
Patients undergoing radiation for the treatment of malignancies may suffer from side effects to the skin in the form of radiation dermatitis. This can lead to local wound formation with poor healing. Treatment options for the resulting wound can range from watchful waiting to more aggressive debridement and secondary grafting. …
Reducing Surgical Site Infection Rates Using an Alternative Sternal Dressing
This study will evaluate two alternative dressings compared to a standard Island dressing presently in use at Stanford Hospital to determine reductions in surgical site infection (SSI) rates among cardiac surgery patients. Cardiovascular surgery patients who will have a sternotomy incision as a routine part of their surgery will be …
Aqueous vs Alcohol Chlorhexidine Skin Preparation for Prevention of Cesarean Section Wound Infections
This will be a single-center randomized control trial comparing the efficacy of two different formulations of Chlorhexidine surgical skin preparation in preventing cesarean section wound infections. Participants will be randomized to either 4% Chlorhexidine Gluconate aqueous solution (CHG) or 2% Chlorhexidine with isopropyl alcohol (CHG-IPA) 70% to examine the risk …
Efficacy of Prophylactic Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT)
The role of prophylactic negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is promising in reducing wound-related complications. However, the prophylactic use of NPWT in reducing wound complications in patients who underwent conventional open harvesting of the great saphenous vein has been under-investigated compering with other surgical approaches. Therefore, this study aims to …
Safety and Efficacy of MRG-001 in Wound Healing in Abdominoplasty Patients
Surgical excisions are one of the most frequent cutaneous wounds. This study will compare the safety and preliminary efficacy of a novel fixed-dose combination drug MRG-001 in pre-abdominoplasty surgical excisions and scar appearance in subjects undergoing elective abdominoplasty.
Trial of Different Wound Dressings in Split-skin Grafted Third Degree Burns
In plastic and reconstructive surgery, treatment strategies of second-degree burn wounds and split-skin grafted third-degree burn wounds aim at reducing infection and improving reepithelialization. Although previous studies indicate that burn patients benefit from newer wound dressings, only a few studies comparing different wound dressings can be found. Therefore, the aim …
Influence of Sun Protection and Linear Repair of Cutaneous Surgical Defects
The purpose of this study is to determine the potential influence of sun protection on the aesthetic outcome of post-surgical scars following the reconstruction of Mohs micrographic surgery defects via linear repair. This study will be performed as a randomized split-wound study. Half of the wound will be treated with …
A Clinical Investigation to Follow the Progress of Exuding Chronic Venous Leg Ulcers Using a Non-Bordered Foam Dressing
The goal of this clinical trial to follow the progress of wounds in those with chronic venous leg ulcers while using a non-bordered foam dressing. The main objective is to follow the progress of these wounds over time from initial visit to each follow-up visit. Participants will be asked to …
