What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Paronychia progress rate
Incidence of grade 2 or more paronychia during paronychia treatment period will be reported. This period will be from randomization till paronychia relief or progression. Frequency of evaluation for paronychia will be everyday.
Measured: Through study completion, an average of 10 days.
Secondary outcomes (2)
Time to paronychia progress
The time elapsed from randomization to either the date of grade 2 or more paronychia occurrence, treatment completion, or last follow-up information. Frequency of evaluation for paronychia will be everyday.
Measured: Through study completion, an average of 10 days.
Time to paronychia relief
The time elapsed from randomization to either the date of paronychia relief, treatment completion, or last follow-up information. Paronychia relief is defined as that paronychia disappears. Frequency of evaluation for paronychia will be everyday.
Measured: Through study completion, an average of 10 days.
