About this study

Official title: Prospective, Multicenter, Observational Study to Evaluate the Clinical Performance of a Sterile, Bacteria-binding, Super-absorbent Wound Dressing

This prospective, multicenter, single-arm observational study aims to document the clinical performance and safety of a sterile, bacteria-binding, super-absorbent wound dressing for the intended use in a daily clinical practice. 50 patients (male/female) with superficial wounds of any etiology affecting only epidermis and dermis layer, with one or more clinical signs of infection or at high risk of infection and also high to very high exudate levels will be observed over a period of 14 days.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patients with superficial woundsA cohort of 50 patients with superficial wounds of any etiology (see inclusion criteria), who need advanced wound care treatment in any case, will be observed over a period of 14 days; the exact duration for each patient depends upon the investigator's assessment. The observation consists of an initial visit, at least one dressing change after max. 7 days and a final visit. Patients will be treated with the CE-marked wound care product. This product is already in general use in the Netherlands and Germany. It is a sterile, bacteria-binding, super-absorbent wound dressing. Apart from the predefined study visits, daily dressing changes in accordance with daily clinical practice are possible.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients with persisting infections will be documented in a standardized Case Report Form (CRF).

    Symptoms such as odor, pain, localized heat and erythema will be assessed by a clinician and documented in four different categories depending on its severity.

    Measured: 14 days

  2. Number of participants with newly developed infections will be documented in a standardized Case Report Form (CRF)

    Symptoms such as odor, pain, localized heat and erythema will be assessed by a clinician and documented in four different categories depending on its severity.

    Measured: 14 days
