Amniotic membrane dressing may heal burns faster than silver dressing
NCT ID NCT07300137
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two types of burn dressings: one made from preserved human amniotic membrane and the other a silver-based dressing (Aquacel® Ag). Researchers want to see which one helps second-degree burns heal faster. The trial will include 100 patients with burns covering up to 40% of their body. The goal is to find a more effective and affordable option for burn care.
