About this trial

The goal of this study to determine whether the combination biologic/drug DERMASEAL will safely decrease donor wound pain after split-thickness skin graft surgery. Participants will have their skin graft donor sites immediately treated with DERMASEAL versus standard of care wound dressings followed by periodic monitoring of their recovery.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Men or women ≥ 21 years of age.

The subject is able and willing to adhere to study procedures and informed consent is obtained.

Patient scheduled to undergo a split-thickness skin graft > 25 cm2 and ≤ 300 cm2 with a wound depth of between 0.010 - 0.015 inch (0.2 - 0.4 mm).

Target donor site wound involving the torso or upper or lower extremities.

Disqualifiers

Hypersensitivity to silver or fresh frozen plasma.

Active infection or history of radiation to the donor site.

Insensate at the donor site.

Elevated INR>3.0.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

adverse events

The safety of topically applying a plasma film containing metallic silver microparticles plus fibrin in patients with skin graft donor sites for 16 weeks following split-thickness skin grafting.

Time frame
16 weeks
2

wound pain

The study will evaluate if using DERMASEAL is associated with a clinically meaningful difference in pain score (≥2 points on the Visual Analog Scale; minimal score =0 and maximal score = 10. A higher score means more pain) between the treatment and active control arms at any time during the 16-week study.

Time frame
16 weeks

Secondary outcomes

1

Percent wound healing

Percent of donor site wounds healed during the post-treatment weeks 1 through 4

Time frame
4 weeks
2

Time to complete wound closure

Time to complete donor site wound closure during the post-treatment weeks 1 through 4

Time frame
4 weeks
3

Recurrent donor site wound after complete wound closure

Recurrence of donor site after complete wound closure, requiring treatment, at any time during the 16-week study.

Time frame
16 weeks
4

Scarring

Scarring as measured by the Vancouver Scar Scale at 16 weeks after surgery. The minimum value = 0 and maximal value = 13; higher scores mean a worse outcome.

Time frame
16 weeks
