NCT ID NCT03897465
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested two types of wound dressings—Lomatuell Pro and UrgoTul—on 183 people with acute wounds like cuts, scrapes, or minor burns. The main goal was to see which dressing caused less pain when removed. Patients rated their pain during the first dressing change, and the study also looked at how well the wounds healed over three weeks.
