About this study

Official title: A Case Series Study of Negative Pressure Platform Wound Device (NP-PWD) on the Healing of Elective Surgical Incisions

This primary case series study will demonstrate the safety and feasibility of the NP-PWD technology and treatment protocol to promote healing of surgical incision healing. In a first use in humans of the NP-PWD's capability to deliver negative pressure wound treatment (NPWT), this project will gather data from patients with elective surgical incisions, with the intention to evaluate the NPWT capability for future use in more tenuous situations of wound closure.

Read the detailed description

A case series study of 10 subjects will be conducted by enrolling patients who are scheduled for elective surgical incisions. Patients will be screened for inclusion criteria and asked to consent to participate in the study for single application treatment with the NP-PWD for 3-6 days. Initial evaluation of the incision would occur on Day 0, including screening, pre-procedure evaluation, measurement and photography of the closed surgical incision. Follow up data is then gathered Day 3-6 with removal of the NP-PWD, surgical incision assessment and photography, and assessment for adverse effects. Day 9-14 follow up include the same assessments of progression of wound closure. Gathered clinical data of the 10 subjects will be used to evaluate the safety in using the NPWT device for effective wound healing.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of treatment-related adverse events.

    Safety is assessed by recording each adverse event (AE) occurring during the period the patient has the study device applied and throughout the entire enrollment period.

    Measured: Three to six days post application.

  2. Rate of successful application of the NP-PWD device

    Descriptive data collected: device application, device removal, adverse device effects, device errors, device complications, and resultant in healing status of the surgical incision.

    Measured: Three to fourteen days post application

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Incidence of treatment-related adverse events.

    Safety is assessed by recording each adverse event (AE) occurring during the period the patient has the study device applied and throughout the entire enrollment period.

    Measured: Fourteen days post application.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing NP-PWD in people with Incisions, Surgical, run by The Metis Foundation at 1 site in United States.

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 2 inclusion and 7 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 10 Feb 2021. 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 United States. 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?

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?

Incidence of treatment-related adverse events. (time frame: Three to six days post application.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 10 Feb 2021.
