About this study

This will be an observational study evaluating subject's perception of pain to dressing changes during removal and application of a surfactant gel. Wound healing will also be monitored. Anxiety before dressing change will be measured using a burn specific pain anxiety scale. Study intervention will include cleansing the wound per the facility's standard of care, followed by applying the investigational product on the wound. This will be followed by placing an appropriate secondary dressing.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Surfactant GelDevice

    This device is helps in the creation of an optimal moist wound healing environment that aids in protecting healthy tissues and provides an environment conductive to autolytic debridement. The device is 100% water-soluble, biocompatible, and non-ionic. The dressing is a surfactant based gel.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Self-reported evaluation of subject pain perception during dressing changes using a numerical pain scale.

    The numerical pain scale will be from 0 to 10 with 0 being no pain at all and 10 being the worst pain ever possible. This is the numeric rating scale.

    Measured: Baseline to Day 30

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Measure percent change in epithelium as recorded by the clinician.

    Measured: Baseline to Day 30

  2. Measure percent change in necrotic tissue in the wound bed

    Measured: Baseline to Day 30

  3. Measure change in wound size

    Measured: Baseline to Day 30

  4. Measure anxiety using a burn specific anxiety scale

    A burn-specific pain anxiety scale will be used to measure level of anxiety. Items will be scored on a 100mm visual analog line with two reference points, 0 and 100. These reference points will also be identified by expressions "not at all" and "the worst imaginable way". Subjects will be requested to scale the strength of their feelings relative to two reference points.

    Measured: Baseline to Day 30

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Self-reported evaluation of subject pain perception during dressing changes using a numerical pain scale. (time frame: Baseline to Day 30). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
