Evaluation of Oxygen Diffusion Dressing for Accelerating Healing of Donor Site and Other Wounds

September 8, 2015 updated by: United States Army Institute of Surgical Research
This is a single-center, prospective, randomized, and controlled study to evaluate the effectiveness of OxyBand Dressing for the use as a dressing for autogenous skin donor sites compared to our current standard donor site dressing (Xeroform). Hypothesis is that the mean healing time for wounds treated with the OxyBand dressing will be less than the mean healing time for wounds treated with the Xeroform dressing.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Patients who are scheduled for excision of burns or other injuries will have one of two donor sites covered with the OxyBand Dressing, and the other treated according to standard of care. OxyBand is an FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approved (K043063) wound dressing for delivery of oxygen into the wound. Two small clinical studies using OxyBand have been conducted on standardized laser burn wounds, demonstrating faster healing time compared to a placebo. No studies have compared this dressing to Xeroform dressing, the standard dressing used on donor sites in the USAISR.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subject must be at least 18 years of age; of either gender and in good general health.
  • Subject has sustained burn wounds of less than 30 percent of the total body surface area
  • Burn wounds do not involve the harvesting area
  • Subject has sustained burn wounds that, in the judgment of the attending surgeon, require excision and grafting of sufficient extent to justify two donor sites of equal and symmetrical size on non-dependent body surfaces areas
  • The scheduled excision and grafting procedure is the first such operation for the subject during this hospitalization
  • Subject agrees to participate in follow-up evaluations

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Critical illnesses such as those requiring ventilator support, or having a systemic infection or hemodynamic instability, defined as a mean arterial pressure less than 60 or requiring vasoactive medications to support blood pressure
  • Major acute or chronic medical illnesses that could affect wound healing (e.g. peripheral vascular disease, insulin dependent diabetes, blood clotting disorder)
  • Subjects receiving treatment with medications that inhibit or compromise wound healing. Examples include therapeutic anticoagulants, antiplatelet drugs, and systemic steroids such as warfarin, clopidogrel or prednisone. The use of anticoagulants does not include DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis) prophylaxis. Subjects may use aspirin or lovenox
  • Cellulitis or other infection of the potential donor sites
  • Donor site has been previously harvested for grafting
  • Subjects with greater than 30% total body surface area burns
  • Pregnancy
  • Prisoners

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Healing Time for Donor Site Wounds
Time Frame: number of days to healing
Wounds are inspected on postoperative days 4, 8, and then every two days until the wound is deemed to be healed.
number of days to healing

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Pain Perceived by Patient
Time Frame: Post-Operative Day 4
Patient will be asked to rate pain 0-10 (0=no pain, 10=maximum pain) at the study site and the control site. Used Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for this purpose.
Post-Operative Day 4
Patient Will be Asked to Rate Pain 0-10/10 at the Study Site and the Control Site
