Evaluation of the Efficacy of an Antioxidant Dressing in Chronic Wound Healing (REOX)

December 20, 2021 updated by: Inés María Comino-Sanz, University of Jaen
The aim of this study is to compare the effect of antioxidant dressing (active product) on chronic wound healing with the use of non-active wound dressing for healing in a moist environment (standard clinical practice) in patients with hard-to-heal wounds

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients over 18 years of age.
  • Patients with leg ulcers (venous, ischemic, traumatic or diabetic foot ulcer).
  • Patients with dehisced surgical wounds healing by second intention.
  • Patients with pressure ulcers.
  • Wound area between 1 and 250 cm2.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Systemic inflammatory disease or oncological disease.
  • Wounds with clinical signs of infection.
  • Terminal situation (life expectancy less than 6 months).
  • Ulcers from other etiologies: tumours, infectious.
  • Wounds treated with negative pressure therapy.
  • Pregnancy.
  • History of sensitivity or allergy to any of the components of the study dressing.

In addition, criteria for withdrawal from the study will be considered:

  • Worsening of the wound according to the clinical judgment of the professional (appearance of clinical signs of infection or others).
  • Appearance of allergies or hypersensitivity to the dressing.
  • Death.
  • Hospital admission that interrupts or complicates the continuity of care in the Nursing Consultation.
  • Transfer to another Health District where there can be no continuity of care with the active dressing.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in the score of the RESVECH 2.0 scale for chronic wound healing monitoring
Time Frame: At baseline, after 2 week, after 4 week, after 6 week and after 8 week
The RESVECH 2.0 is a scale for monitoring the cicatrization of the wound. It has 6 items: size of the lesion, depth/tissue concerned, edges, type of tissue in the wound bed, exudate, infection/inflammation. The scale is scored numerically and can score ranging from 0 to 35 points, wound healed and the worst possible lesion respectively
At baseline, after 2 week, after 4 week, after 6 week and after 8 week
Wound size reduction
Time Frame: At baseline, after 2 week, after 4 week, after 6 week and after 8 week
Difference in wound area between first and last dressing
At baseline, after 2 week, after 4 week, after 6 week and after 8 week

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Time required to achieve 50% reduction in wound size
Time Frame: Change from baseline to 8 weeks of follow up
Change from baseline to 8 weeks of follow up
Time to removal of non-viable tissue from wound bed
Time Frame: At baseline, after 2 week, after 4 week, after 6 week and after 8 week
At baseline, after 2 week, after 4 week, after 6 week and after 8 week
Number of completely healed wounds
Time Frame: At baseline, after 2 week, after 4 week, after 6 week and after 8 week
At baseline, after 2 week, after 4 week, after 6 week and after 8 week
Pain level
Time Frame: At baseline, after 2 week, after 4 week, after 6 week and after 8 week
The visual analogue scale (VAS) is commonly used as the outcome measure for patient´s pain. It is usually presented as a 100-mm horizontal line on which pain intensity is represented by a point between the extremes of "no pain at all" and "worst pain imaginable."
At baseline, after 2 week, after 4 week, after 6 week and after 8 week
Area of wound with bacterial load
Time Frame: At baseline, after 2 week, after 4 week, after 6 week and after 8 week
clinical signs of infection and/or measurement of surfaces with bacteria
At baseline, after 2 week, after 4 week, after 6 week and after 8 week
