About this study

Official title: The Wound Healing Efficacy and Safety of Medifoam H in Patients With Minor, Acute Trauma: a Single-center, Randomized, Active-controlled, Open-label, Phase IV

The wound healing efficacy and safety of "Medifoam H" in patients with minor, acute trauma.

The hypothesis of this study is that using "Medifoam H" dressing for a week is not inferior to using "Duoderm THIN" dressing in wound healing.

Read the detailed description

This study is single-center, randomized, active-controlled, open-label, Phase IV to evaluate clinical efficacy of wound healing and safety of "Medifoam H" in patients with minor, acute trauma.

33 patients of treatment group and 33 patients of control group, total 66 patients will be enrolled to this study. Every patient will be treated with "Medifoam H" or "Duoderm THIN" for a week. During their participation, patients will visit 2 days and a week after to see investigator. Investigator will observe the wound and evaluate amount of exudation, infection status, wound healing.

What is being measured

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

  1. Wound healing rate according to amount of exudation at 1 week from baseline. If exudation is not existed, this will be defined as recovery

    Wound healing rate according to amount of exudation at 1 week from baseline. If exudation is not existed, this will be defined as recovery. Exudation will be scored in 4 level: None/Mild/Normal/Severe.

    Measured: 0 to 1 week

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Rate of infection on wound

    Rate of infection on wound. Infection means pus, erythema or tenderness and this will be judged by observation of investigator and scored in 3 level: not present/minimally present/extensively present.

    Measured: 1/3/7 days.

  2. Amount of exudation at day 3.

    Amount of exudation at day 3 from baseline. If exudation is not existed, this will be defined as recovery. Exudation will be scored in 4 level: None/Mild/Normal/Severe

    Measured: 3 days

  3. Rate of wound healing

    Rate of wound healing at day 3 and 7 from baseline. Would healing will be scored in 3 level: Better/Same/Worse.

    Measured: 3/7 days

  4. Rate of changes in tissue after treatment

    Rate of changes in tissue after treatment at day 3 and 7 from baseline. Changes in tissue will be recorded as percentage. Necrotic, sloughy, fibrous, granulation, epithelial, other tissues will be observed

    Measured: 3/7 days

  5. Whether use of concomitant medication or not

    Whether use of concomitant medication or not

    Measured: 1/3/7 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Medifoam H dressing and Duoderm THIN dressing in people with Trauma, run by Seoul St. Mary's Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 3 inclusion and 6 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 Feb 2013. 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 South Korea. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Wound healing rate according to amount of exudation at 1 week from baseline. If exudation is not existed, this will be defined as recovery (time frame: 0 to 1 week). 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 Feb 2013.
