The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.

Summary

This study tested whether a vacuum dressing (negative pressure wound therapy) helps skin graft donor sites heal faster than a regular bandage. Twelve people who needed a skin graft had both types of dressings applied to different donor sites. The researchers measured how long it took for the wounds to close and how much pain people felt.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) device
What this could lead to
If it works, this could give doctors a better way to help skin graft donor sites heal faster and with less pain.
What could go wrong
This was a very small study with only 12 people, so results may not apply to everyone. The treatment also requires a special device and may not be widely available.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * The inclusion criteria were patients who required a split-thickness skin graft procedure due to any etiology, had donor site wounds not exceeding 5% of the total body surface area, and complied with the necessary wound care and follow-up protocols. Exclusion Criteria: * The exclusion criteria included patients who had physical or cognitive impairment and were unable to provide informed consent or comply with necessary wound protocol, as well as patients on anticoagulant, corticosteroid, or chemotherapy treatment. Additionally, patients with donor site wounds exceeding 5% of their total body surface area were excluded.
