WOUND HEALING

This study looks at whether using a patient's own skin cells (sprayed on the wound) followed by a special biological dressing helps second-degree burns heal faster and with better scarring. About 386 people will take part, and their results will be compared to those who got stand…

This study will compare two types of wound dressings—one with chlorhexidine and one with povidone iodine—to see which one better prevents infection and helps wounds heal after an injury. About 176 adults with fresh, clean-contaminated wounds will take part. The goal is to find ou…

This study tests if a new surgical method—gently stretching the bone under the wound and then placing a skin graft—helps diabetic foot ulcers heal better than a skin graft alone. About 104 people with hard-to-heal foot sores will take part. The main goal is to see if more of the …

This study looks at whether a special cell suspension made from a patient's own skin cells can help wounds heal better after skin grafts, flap surgery, or stitches. About 1000 people will take part, with half getting the cell therapy plus standard care and half getting standard c…

This study tests whether a cold plasma treatment applied during groin surgery can prevent wound healing complications in high-risk patients with peripheral artery disease. About 214 participants will receive either the real plasma or a placebo device during their operation. Resea…

This study compares two silver wound dressings—a newer soft silicone foam and a traditional one—to see which heals infected chronic wounds better and costs less. About 40 adults with ulcers will be randomly assigned to one dressing for two weeks. The goal is to find the best opti…

This early-stage study tests a gel called LUT017 on small skin wounds from mole removal in 9 healthy adults. One wound gets the gel, another gets a placebo, and healing is compared over a week. The goal is to see if the gel is safe and might speed up healing.

This study aims to find out which type of dental stitch (suture) is most comfortable for patients after minor oral surgery. Sixty healthy adults aged 20-30 will receive four different suture materials in separate areas of their upper jaw. They will report pain, discomfort, and an…

This study looks at whether adding a special plasma device to standard scar care can help improve the look and feel of different types of scars, including those from surgery, burns, or acne. About 800 people aged 12 and older with scars that have been present for at least 3 month…

This study looks at whether a harmless thermal camera can help doctors monitor surgical wounds after skin surgery. The goal is to catch problems like infection or slow healing earlier than usual. About 120 adults having skin lesion removal will take part. The camera measures temp…

This study looks at how smoking affects bone healing after a tooth is pulled and a bone graft is placed. Researchers will compare 12 smokers and non-smokers to see differences in bone width, height, and gene activity. The goal is to gather initial data to plan a larger study on s…

This study follows 40 adults with serious burns to collect blood, tissue, and medical data. Researchers will look for patterns that could help predict sepsis and other complications. The goal is to build computer models that improve burn care and outcomes.

This study follows 80 adults with serious burns to collect blood, tissue, and medical record information. Researchers will look for patterns that could help predict who is at higher risk for infections like sepsis or other complications. The goal is to use this data to build comp…
