Trial summary

Occupational hand dermatitis (OHD) often occurs in intensive care unit (ICU) nurses, especially in individuals who are vulnerable due to irritant exposure e.g. hand rub alcohol and repeated hand washing activities. The use of moisturizer is one of the recommendations for skin care in OHD. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Effectiveness and Safety Between Moisturizing Cream Containing Niacinamide 4% and Virgin Coconut Oil 30% for Secondary Prevention of Occupational Hand Hermatitis in Intensive Care Unit Nurses: a Double Blind Randomized Clinical Trial

Occupational hand dermatitis (OHD) often occurs in intensive care unit (ICU) nurses, especially in individuals who are vulnerable due to irritant exposure e.g. hand rub alcohol and repeated hand washing activities. The use of moisturizer is one of the recommendations for skin care in OHD. Niacinamide which has anti-inflammatory effects and can improve the skin barrier function. Virgin coconut oil (VCO) is rich in lipids and lauric acid, and has an occlusive effect. Until now there are no guidelines and reference types of moisturizers for secondary prevention in DTAK.

The aim of this study is identify the effectiveness and safety between moisturizing cream containing niacinamide 4% and VCO 30% for secondary prevention of occupational hand dermatitis in ICU nurses This study also measured HECSI , TEWL, and SCap before and after treatment

What is being measured

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

  1. HECSI

    Hand eczema severity index (HECSI) is a score to indicate the severity of hand dermatitis. The range of HECSI score is 0-360. The HECSI score before treatment was expected to be higher than after treatment. Outcome: change of HECSI

    Measured: 14 days

  2. HECSI

    Hand eczema severity index (HECSI) is a score to indicate the severity of hand dermatitis. The range of HECSI score is 0-360. The HECSI score before treatment was expected to be higher than after treatment. Outcome: change of HECSI

    Measured: 28 days

  3. TEWL

    Trans Epidermal Waterloss (TEWL) is the primary parameter which measured for the skin barrier function, when the skin barrier is damaged the skin will be disrupted in maintaining water. Passive water diffusion via the Corneal stratum. TEWL is measured in g/h/m2. The TEWL value before treatment was expected to be higher than after treatment. Outcome: change of TEWL

    Measured: 14 days

  4. TEWL

    Trans Epidermal Waterloss (TEWL) is the primary parameter which measured for the skin barrier function, when the skin barrier is damaged the skin will be disrupted in maintaining water. Passive water diffusion via the Corneal stratum. TEWL is measured in g/h/m2. TEWL value before treatment was expected to be higher than after treatment. Outcome: change of TEWL

    Measured: 28 days

  5. SCap

    Skin Capasitance (SCap) is a score for skin hidration. SCap can be done with measuring the water level in corneal stratum using non-invasive electric method which measure the capacitance. SCap is measured in Arbitrary Unit (AU). SCap value before treatment was expected to be lower than after treatment. Outcome: change of SCap

    Measured: 14 days

  6. SCap

    Skin Capasitance (SCap) is a score for skin hidration. SCap can be done with measuring the water level in corneal stratum using non-invasive electric method which measure the capacitance. SCap is measured in Arbitrary Unit (AU). SCap value before treatment was expected to be lower than after treatment. Outcome: change of SCap.

    Measured: 28 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Niacinamide 4% and Virgin Coconut oil 30% in people with Contact Dermatitis of Hands, run by Universitas Indonesia at 1 site in Indonesia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Indonesia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

HECSI (time frame: 14 days). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. 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.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Jan 2020.
