About this study

Official title: Open, Prospective, Single Centre, Randomized, Controlled, Cross-over. Clinical Study Investigating the Correlation in Peel Force of Standard Hydrocolloid Adhesive and a Standard Strata Adhesive From Peristomal Skin and Pre-stripped Abdominal Skin in Colostomists

The aim of the study is to investigate the correlation in peel force when peeling off a standard hydrocolloid adhesive strip and standard strata adhesive strip from peristomal skin compared to pre-stripped healthy abdominal skin in colostomists.

Conditions
Colostomy Stoma
Being tested

What participants receive

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

Pre-stripped abdominal skinOtherThe peel force used to remove two types of adhesive strips (Hydrocolloid strip and strata strip) from healthy abdominal skin
Receives: Other: Hydrocolloid strip; Other: Strata strip

What is being measured

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

  1. Peel Force

    The peel force was measured with a tensile tester which measured the force needed to remove the the adhesive strip from the skin with a constant speed 304mm/min and a mean angel of 90 degrees.

    The peel force was measured on all participants in the flow module. However, sometimes the measurements failed and therefore did not provide a result. In example a wheel chair user was included and non of peel force measurements were succesful on the subject. The rest of the failed measurements were distributed randomly between the subjects.

    Measured: 1 hour

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Hydrocolloid strip and Strata strip in people with Colostomy Stoma, run by Coloplast A/S.

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 9 inclusion and 9 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 12 Mar 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Mar 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Peel Force (time frame: 1 hour). 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 12 Mar 2014.
