About this trial
This study is to compare the Field Shield Wound Dressing (FSWD) as a treatment for burn wounds to a standard of care burn wound dressing to evaluate healing, infection, pain/discomfort, and deepening of wound over time.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Thermal injury size 5-30% TBSA
Admitted to the burn center and enroll able within 72 hours of injury
Subject has two distinct areas of 100cm2 or larger of intermediate to deep partial thickness burns (study sites). These areas are judged to be comparable in depth.
The subject and or caregiver is able and willing to follow the protocol requirements
Disqualifiers
Subject has congestive heart failure, oxygen-dependent chronic lung disease, end-stage renal disease, or liver cirrhosis
Subject is undergoing hospice care.
Subject is currently being treated for an active malignant disease
Subject has other concurrent conditions that in the opinion of the Investigator may compromise subject safety

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Wound closure
Wound closure will be assessed at each time point (day 3, 7, 12, 19, 28, 35). The probability of wound closure will be assessed with a cluster randomized Generalized Estimating Equations (GEE) model of the probability of closure in terms of treatment and clinical site with clustering by patient and login link.
Secondary outcomes
Infection
Rate of occurrence of infection per uint time.
Surgical debridement
Rate of occurrence of surgical debridement and rate of occurrence of grafting
Pain severity
Pain will measured using a visual analog scale (0-10) at each dressing change comparing each site pain ratings.
Scar
The Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale will be conducted to evaluate scars, comparing the two sites at two time points.
