About this study

Official title: Prospective, Randomized Study of Split Thickness Skin Graft in Wounds on Lower Leg After Compression Therapy With Compression Bandage vs. NPWT

The single center, prospective, randomized trial includes in total 60 patients. We want to compare two different treatment methods for compression therapy for split thickness skin graft in lower leg. The patients are randomized to compression therapy with NPWT (negative pressure wound therapy) using the device PICO or using the compression bandage with Coban 2 lite.

Primary outcome is complete healing of the skin transplant 30 days postoperatively. Secondary outcomes will be to note frequency of infection, bleeding, loss of transplant etc.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
NPWT (PICO device)OtherIn this arm, investigators will use the PICO system (Smith and Nephew) for compression therapy after split thickness skin graft of leg ulcers.
Receives: Device: PICO
Compression bandaging (Coban 2 lite)OtherIn this arm, investigators will use the Coban 2 lite compression bandaging for compression therapy after split thickness skin graft of leg ulcers.
Receives: Other: Coban 2 lite

What is being measured

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

  1. Healing of skin graft between the two Methods

    Numbers of patients with 100 % healing of the split thickness skin graft

    Measured: 30 days postoperatively

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Percentage of healing between the two Methods

    Average healing of the split thickness skin grafts

    Measured: 30 days postoperatively

  2. Evaluation of pain with VAS (Visual analogic scale)

    Pain score as measured by VAS

    Measured: 0, 5-7, 10-14 and 30 days postoperatively

  3. Level of function

    Evaluate change in daily function after surgery

    Measured: 30 days postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PICO and Coban 2 lite in people with Skin Cancer, run by Oslo University Hospital at 1 site in Norway.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Mar 2018. 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 Norway. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Martina Kristiansen, MD (+47 6809453, martk4@ous-hf.no), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Healing of skin graft between the two Methods (time frame: 30 days postoperatively). 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 2 Mar 2018.
