詳細な説明
Sixty participants with pathological scars of the extremities will be recruited from the Department of Occupational Therapy and Hand Therapy at Sheba Medical Center. Inclusion criteria will include individuals aged 18 to 65 years with extremity scars measuring at least 5 cm in length and a scar age of 1-6 months. Exclusion criteria will include scars crossing joints, underlying medical conditions affecting wound healing, skin diseases, active infections, silicone sensitivity, and neurological disorders. Participants will be allocated into two groups using a matching method according to age, sex, scar location, and skin tone to minimize potential confounding variables.
The study is designed as a prospective pre-post intervention study with repeated measurements and monthly follow-ups over a period of three months. Each participant will undergo an initial evaluation session documenting personal information, scar characteristics, and baseline scar assessment. Scar evaluation will include both objective and subjective outcome measures. Objective measurements will include scar height and area assessment using the EinScan HX® scanner, skin elasticity evaluation using the Cutometer®, color assessment using the Skin Colorimeter®, and validation of applied pressure using the Flexiforce® sensor to ensure an interfacial pressure of 15-25 mmHg. Subjective scar evaluation will be performed using the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS 3.0).
The intervention group will receive treatment using a combination of pressure garments and silicone sheets, while the control group will receive treatment using pressure garments alone. Both groups will receive instructions regarding scar management and proper use of the prescribed treatment. Participants will be followed monthly throughout the three-month intervention period, and repeated scar assessments will be performed to evaluate changes over time.
The primary aim of this study is to examine the efficacy of combined pressure garment and silicone sheet therapy compared to pressure garment therapy alone in the treatment of pathological scars of the extremities. In addition, the study aims to establish a comprehensive scar assessment framework integrating objective and subjective measures to improve the evaluation of scar characteristics and treatment outcomes.

Change from Baseline in Scar Height, Area, Color, Elasticity, and Overall Scar Quality at 3 Months
時間枠:Change from Baseline in Scar Characteristics at 3 Months
|
Scar characteristics will be assessed using objective and subjective measures, including scar height and area (EinScan HX®), elasticity (Cutometer®), color (Skin Colorimeter®), and POSAS 3.0 score.
Changes over time will be compared between the combined treatment group and the pressure garment group.

Changes in scar characteristics will be evaluated over a three-month intervention period using a comprehensive assessment framework that includes objective and subjective outcome measures.
Objective measures will include scar height and area assessed using the EinScan HX® scanner, scar elasticity assessed using the Cutometer®, and scar color assessed using the Skin Colorimeter®.
Subjective scar quality will be assessed using the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS 3.0).
