About this study

The purpose of this study is to appraise if various concentration of adrenaline containing tumescent has any significant role in bleeding at skin graft donor site bleeding through photographic assessment.

Read the detailed description

Tumescent solutions will be prepared by adding 30cc of Ringer's lactate and 10cc of lignocaine 2%, with 1cc of adrenaline of 1:200,000 (which will be prepared by adding 1cc of adrenaline of 1:1000 conc. with 200ml of normal saline marked as solution "A" and without adrenaline marked as solution "B" to form the two different tumescent solutions. Both solutions with be topically applied in soaked gauzes for around 10 minutes. Solution A will be applied over the anterior side of thigh while solution B will be applied over lateral side of thigh.

Tumescent solutions will be prepared around 10 minutes before applying. After 10 min Split-thickness skin graft donor sites will be harvested with a Dermatome adjusted on with a randomized setting to harvest a fixed depth of wound depth. After harvesting skin graft the donor site wound will be photographed.

The apparent severity of bleeding will be scored on an ordinal scale from 0 to 5 (0=no bleeding/staining, 1=minimal bleeding/staining, 2=mild bleeding/staining, 3=moderate bleeding/staining, 4=moderately severe bleeding/staining, 5=severe bleeding/staining by two independent surgeons. At last photographs will be compared with pre-infiltration records in each side. Skin graft donor and recipient site will be inspected on the 5th post-operative day

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • tumescent with adrenalineOther

    skin graft donor site of patients enrolled in this group will be injected subcutaneously with tumescent solution containing adrenaline to see the bleeding control of donor site.

  • tumescent without adrenalineOther

    skin graft donor site of patients enrolled in this group will be injected subcutaneously with tumescent solution not containing adrenaline to see the bleeding control of donor site.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing tumescent with adrenaline and tumescent without adrenaline in people with Bleeding Time, run by Dow University of Health Sciences at 1 site in Pakistan.

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 6 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Aug 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 Pakistan. 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?

ordinal scale (time frame: 30minutes). 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 25 Aug 2021.
