Evaluation of Antimicrobial Soft Silicone, Silver Containing, Foam Dressing, Mepilex Border Ag, in Second Degree Burns

May 3, 2017 updated by: Molnlycke Health Care AB

An Open Non-controlled Post-marketing Investigation Evaluating the Experience of Using a Self- Adherent Antimicrobial Soft Silicone, Silver Containing, Foam Dressing, Mepilex Border Ag, in Second Degree Burns

The investigation is designed as an open, non-controlled, post-marketing investigation. Subjects with at least one second degree burn less than 9.5x15 cm in size at 1-3 sites will be included. The subject is allowed to have more than one burn on the body but only one should be included in the investigation. Each subject will be followed/assessed according to normal hospital routine 1-3 times per week for a maximum of 3 weeks or until desired treatment effect is obtained if that occurs earlier. All dressing changes will be done according to clinical routine and will follow the IFU (instruction for use). All dressing changes will be registered in a dressing log. Additional compression bandaging, gauze wrap, or such are allowed and should be reported as well

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

At baseline, subject characteristics will be registered together with subject status of health and status of the burn, and current treatment of the burn.

At each visit the following variables will be collected where applicable:

  • Investigator's/Nurse evaluation of

    • Overall experience of the dressing
    • Ability of dressing to stay in place (not at baseline)
    • Conformability of the dressing
    • Handling at application
    • Ease of removal of the dressing (not at baseline)

  • Subject evaluation of

    • Overall experience of the dressing
    • Comfort of the dressing
    • Conformability of the dressing
  • Pain before, during and after removal of dressing according to VAS
  • Status of skin
  • Burn status: width x length, exudate details and signs of inflammation/infection

In addition the following variables should be evaluated at each visit:

  • Concomitant medication/treatment
  • Adverse Event/Adverse Device Effect (AE/ADE)
  • Serious Adverse Event/Serious Adverse Device Effect (sAE/sADE)

Photos will be taken before Mepilex Border Ag is removed, after removal, before cleansing, and after cleansing. All photos must include a sticker marker with subject code, visit number and date, and an indication of whether pre-/post removal, pre-/post cleansing. The stick marker also contains a ruler. Detailed instructions on how to take the photos is given in Appendix 14.2

At each visit the subject will give the assessment concerning the comfort and stay-on-ability of the dressing. The investigator will also give an assessment at each visit concerning handling, conformability and ability of dressing to stay in place.

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

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
Evaluate the Experience of Using Mepilex Border Ag ( a Silver Dressing) in Normal Clinical Practice
Time Frame: 3 weeks
burns healed
3 weeks

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
Evaluate the Comfort
Time Frame: 3 weeks
