New bandage stays put in Head-to-Head test
NCT ID NCT06831448
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested a new prototype foam dressing on 120 healthy volunteers to see how well it stays in place compared to two similar dressings already on the market. Dressings were applied to thighs and shins and checked after 1, 3, and 7 days. The main goal was to show the new dressing is not worse at staying put without the edges lifting or the pad showing.

Participant is willing not to use cosmetic or medicinal lotions, creams, ointments and anything else which may interfere with dressing adhesion at dressing application sites for the duration of the study from 24 hours before dressing application on Day 0. 6. Participant is willing to have excess hair removed from the dressing application sites 7. Participant is willing to avoid immersing the dressings in water (no swimming or bathing) for the duration of the study \[\*at least 10% of participants are aged \>55 years\] Exclusion Criteria: 1.

Participants with a medical condition which may interfere with their perception of pain (such as diabetes, small-fibre neuropathy, allodynia, hyperalgesia etc.). 6. Heavy smokers (e.g. \>20 cigarettes (\~1 pack) a day over the last 10 years) whose pain perception may have been affected through smoking. 7. Participants with any skin features near any of the dressing application sites that could be identifiable/may interfere with skin assessments (e.g. tattoos/distinctive markings or scars/keloids). 8. Participants diagnosed with hyperhidrosis or who self-report their normal sweating level to be severe as determined by the Sweating Severity Self-Assessment (SSSA) at screening (e.g. mild, moderate, severe). 9. Participants not willing to refrain from the use of pain relief medication on assessment days (1, 3 and 7) and in the case of certain medications, 24 hours before assessments. 10. Participants unwilling to refrain from activities which may directly affect the dressing, dressing application sites or assessments (such as undergoing planned scanning procedures, e.g., X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) scanning; exposure to airport scanners or devices emitting radio waves; exposure to atypical conditions of pressure, humidity and temperature; immersing the dressing in water e.g. bathing / swimming / cleaning the dressing application sites; using a sauna; undertaking strenuous physical activity like aerobics, running, cycling, heavy labor etc.; using lotions/creams/ointments etc. at the dressing application sites; excessively exposing the dressing application sites to the sun (e.g. sunbathing for \>1 hour); wearing tightly fitting clothes which could affect the dressings. 11. Individuals who have participated in a clinical study in the last 7 days, using the same dressing application sites. 12. Participants with poor compliance and / or poor willingness to co-operate. 13. Individuals who should not participate in the clinical investigation for any other reason (including the taking of certain medications) as judged by the Investigator. 14. Individuals who are inmates in psychiatric wards, prison or state institutions, or any individuals otherwise regarded as vulnerable (as per ISO 14155 Section 3.55). 15.
