Study Evaluating AWBAT-D Versus the Standard of Care of Split-thickness Skin Graft Donor Sites

December 14, 2016 updated by: Christopher Attinger, M.D., Georgetown University

Randomized, Prospective, Pilot Study Evaluating a Temporary Skin Substitute (AWBAT-D) Versus the Standard of Care in the Postoperative Treatment of Split-thickness Skin Graft Donor Sites

Use of AWBAT-D on split thickness skin graft sites will reduce healing time and pain level.

Detailed Description

The study is designed as a randomized-controlled trial to examine split thickness skin graft donor wound site healing using AWBAT-D compared to current standard of care: Tegaderm. This will involve randomizing subjects to treatment with the AWBAT-D dressing or Tegaderm and monitoring outcomes. The AWBAT-D device has collagen and we hypothesize that the wounds treated with it will heal faster and with a decreased pain level. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if there are differences in outcomes between AWBAT-D and Tegaderm in healing split thickness skin graft donor sites.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  2. Subjects requiring a split-thickness skin graft with a wound size between 5 and 50cm2 and a depth between 12-18um.
  3. Ability and willingness to understand and comply with study procedures and to give written informed consent prior to enrollment in the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Subjects < 18 years of age
  2. Subjects with an allergy to porcine products.
  3. Subjects undergoing STSG with a wound size less than 5 cm2 or greater than 50cm2.
