Longer cast time may boost skin graft success
NCT ID NCT04648267
Summary
This study looked at whether keeping a protective cast on longer helps skin grafts heal better. It involved 75 adults who had skin grafts after facial reconstruction surgery. Researchers compared the standard 5-7 day cast period against a longer 10-14 day period to see which led to better graft survival and patient quality of life.
