Recruiting studies
- NCT06104202Recruiting
Study on thinking patterns in burned-out healthcare workers
This study looks at certain thinking patterns (called early maladaptive schemas) in healthcare professionals who are experiencing burnout. It aims to understand how these patterns relate to burnout and may help improve care for burnout in the future.
ÉcullyAges 18 years+ - NCT07578883Recruiting
Scar Mobilization Therapy for Burned Children's Upper Arms
This trial tests whether a hands-on scar-stretching treatment can help improve scars and quality of life in children who have suffered moderate to severe burns on their arms. The goal is to see if the therapy reduces tightness and improves movement.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 8–13 - NCT07506018Recruiting
MucoLock for mouth pain caused by stomatitis
This study tests a new mouth rinse, MucoLock, to see if it can help people with severe mouth pain (stomatitis). If you have burning or painful mouth sores that rate very high on a pain scale, this trial may offer a new treatment option.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03695887RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Disposable nitrous oxide for pain during burn dressing changes
This early-stage study tests whether using disposable nitrous oxide canisters can better control pain when you need burn dressing changes. It may help by making dressing changes more comfortable, but eligibility depends on your burn size, health, and breathing ability.
Winnipeg, ManitobaAges 18 years+ - NCT04264065Recruiting
Albumin study in severe burn patients in ICU
This trial looks at whether giving or measuring albumin (a blood protein) can help predict outcomes for people with very severe burns in the ICU. It may help doctors understand who is at higher risk and guide care during the first day after injury.
Paris, FranceAges 18–80 - NCT04292054RecruitingPhase 3
Antibiotics to prevent infection during burn skin graft surgery
This Phase 3 study tests whether giving preventive antibiotics lowers infection risk when you need surgery to remove burned skin and place a skin graft. It may help patients heal with fewer serious infections, but it also depends on your antibiotic allergy and current health status.
ParisAges 18–99 - NCT04589442RecruitingPhase 4
Graft treatment for deep burns using processed donor skin
This trial tests whether a “microsurfaced” donor-skin graft can heal deep burn wounds (partial- or full-thickness burns) after recent injury. It may help improve healing when the burn area is large enough and not infected.
Augusta, GeorgiaAges 21 years+ - NCT04893863RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Plurogel vs standard dressing for partial-thickness burn wounds
This trial compares Plurogel® to the usual topical dressing for people with partial-thickness burns on both limbs. It aims to see whether the new gel dressing improves healing for these burn injuries.
Winnipeg, ManitobaAges 18 years+ - NCT05000983RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test Plurogel skin gel versus standard burn dressings
This early-phase study tests whether Plurogel, a medicated skin gel, works better than the usual dressing care for certain burn wounds. It aims to improve healing in people who have partial-thickness face burns or one-sided limb burns that need hospital treatment.
Winnipeg, ManitobaAges 18 years+ - NCT05275335Recruiting
Study how germs in burn wounds are best identified
This study compares two ways of finding germs (microbes) in burn wounds: traditional tissue swabs/cultures versus a newer DNA-based method. It may help improve how clinicians understand burn infections and tailor care.
Galveston, TexasAges 18–100 - NCT05424354RecruitingPhase 4
Test powder dressing vs usual care for recent burn wounds
This study compares a transforming powder dressing to the standard dressing for partial-thickness burn wounds. It aims to see whether the powder dressing helps wounds heal better and safely when used soon after the burn.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT05819697Recruiting
Helping burning mouth symptoms with improved memory recall
This trial looks at ways to reduce how much people with burning mouth syndrome struggle to recall information during the study. If you qualify, you may be asked to complete study tasks and share saliva to support the research.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06104540Recruiting
Liquid Vaseline vs Olive Oil for Itching and Scarring After Scald Burns
This study compares two natural oils—liquid vaseline and olive oil—to see which one reduces itching and scarring better after a scald burn. You may qualify if you have a healed second-degree burn that no longer needs bandages.
AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT06162052Recruiting
Home-based rehab with tech for burn recovery
This study tests a home-based rehab program that uses technology (like your phone or tablet) to help you recover from a burn injury. It focuses on burns that affect joints, and aims to improve your movement and healing.
Galveston, TexasAges 18–79 - NCT06379724RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing medicines to control bleeding during burn skin grafts
This study compares two medicines—tranexamic acid and thrombin—to see which works better to stop bleeding during a burn skin graft. If you have a small burn (10% or less of your body) that needs a thin skin graft, this trial could help find a safer, faster way to heal.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06438224Recruiting
Shock wave therapy for hand function after burn and nerve injury
This trial tests if a special type of sound wave therapy (ESWT) can help restore hand movement and feeling in people who have nerve damage and thick scars from a burn on their dominant hand. It may offer a new way to improve hand function after a burn injury.
SeoulAges 18–75 - NCT06469970RecruitingPhase 2
Glucose distribution in severe burn patients
This study looks at how glucose moves in the body after a severe burn. It may help doctors better manage fluids and sugar levels in the first hours of treatment.
MetzAges 18 years+ - NCT06487910Recruiting
3D-printed pressure garment for burn scars
This trial tests a custom 3D-printed pressure garment for healing burn scars that have become thick and raised. The goal is to see if it helps the scars heal better.
MetzAges 18 years+ - NCT06506565RecruitingPhase 4
Low-dose ketamine for burn wound pain
This trial tests a low-dose ketamine infusion during burn wound dressing changes to see if it reduces pain. It might help people who are hospitalized with a thermal burn injury.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06529757Recruiting
Skin wetting in burn survivors
This study tests how wetting the skin affects burn survivors and healthy volunteers. It may help find ways to manage body temperature or improve comfort during recovery.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT06564090Recruiting
Robot help for walking after severe leg burns
This study tests whether a robot that helps train walking can improve how people with severe leg burns move after surgery. If you had a large skin graft on your legs and struggle to walk, this may help you regain a more natural walking pattern.
SeoulAges 18–75 - NCT06670248Recruiting
Study of blood vessel health during burn surgery
This trial looks at how a protective layer inside your blood vessels (called the glycocalyx) responds during surgery to remove burned skin. The goal is to improve care for people with major burns.
Barcelona, SpainAges 18 years+ - NCT07566871Enrolling by invitation
Nerve Stimulation to Help Burn Injury Recovery
This study tests whether gentle electrical stimulation of a nerve in your ear can help reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and ease pain or itching after a burn injury heals. You would wear a small device on your ear for several weeks.
Istanbul, KartalAges 18–65 - NCT07577960Enrolling by invitation
Lung Rehabilitation for Upper Arm Burn Recovery
This study tests whether specialized breathing exercises and chest therapy can improve lung function in people recovering from upper arm burns. It may help you breathe better and restore physical strength after a burn injury.
