Background:Split-thickness skin grafting remains fundamental treatment of patients with deep burns and other traumatic injuries. However, the split-thickness skin graft (STSG) donor site dressing has been controversial until now. Our study here aimed to assess patient comfort and wound-healing efficacy with the application of thin split-thickness grafting on STSG donor sites.
Methods: 192 consecutive patients undergoing split-thickness skin grafting were included in the study and the participants were randomly divided into three groups: Group A was regrafted with thin STSG, while, Group B and Group C were covered with the occlusive hydrocellular dressing and paraffin gauze, respectively. The three groups were compared regarding to the time of epithelialization, pain sensed by the patients and the scar formation.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Skin Graft Disorder and Disorder of Skin Donor Site, run by Tang-Du Hospital.
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 1 inclusion and 1 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 1 Nov 2013. 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?
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?
The time of epithelialization (time frame: up to 4 weeks). 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 1 Nov 2013.
