About this study
Official title: Use of 2-octylcyanoacrylate (Dermabond) Versus 5-0 Fast Absorbing Gut During Cutaneous Wound Closure: a Randomized Evaluator Blinded Split Wound Comparative Effectiveness Trial
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of 2-octylcyanoacrylate during repair of linear cutaneous surgery wounds improves scar cosmesis compared to wound closure with 5-0 fast absorbing gut.
Read the detailed description
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of 2-octylcyanoacrylate during repair of linear cutaneous surgery wounds improves scar cosmesis compared to wound closure with 5-0 fast absorbing gut. The investigators will use a split wound model, where half of the wound is treated with 2-octylcyanoacrylate and the other half is repaired with 5-0 fast absorbing gut. Three-months post-surgery, the scar will be measured via the physician observer scar assessment scale, a validated scar instrument. The scar width, and adverse events will also be recorded.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Assessment of Scar on the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale
After surgical procedure, half of the subject's wound will be with 2-octylcyanoacrylate, while the other half is closed 5-0 fast absorbing gut sutures. After 3 months, subjects will return to clinic for evaluation of the cosmesis of both types of closure techniques.
Measured: 3 months
Secondary outcomes (2)
Measurement of Scar Width
The width of the scar will be measured 1 centimeter from the midline on both sides. There is no defined width that is considered satisfactory or not satisfactory. The measurements will be compared between subjects.
Measured: 3 months
Assessment of Complications
Noting the presence or absence of bleeding, dehiscence, infection or spitting sutures.
Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Wound Closure with 2-octylcyanoacrylate and Wound Closure with 5-0 Fast Absorbing Gut Sutures in people with Wound Closure Techniques, run by University of California, Davis.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 May 2017. 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?
Assessment of Scar on the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (time frame: 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02547077, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 30 May 2017.
