Compare a powder dressing vs standard care for pressure sores
Part of Pain, Skin clinical trials.
This study compares a transforming powder dressing to usual recommended wound care for pressure injuries at stages 2 to 4. It may help you find out whether the powder dressing heals these sores better or faster than standard treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re between 18 and 85 years old.
- Your pressure injury is stage 2, 3, or 4 (not stage 1, deep tissue, or unstageable).
- Your wound drainage is mild to moderate, not heavy.
- There is no active wound infection based on the clinician’s exam.
- You can sign consent yourself in writing and your health is stable (vitals and labs OK).
- You’re able to follow offloading instructions (reducing pressure on the wound) and attend study visits.

This trial tests a special dressing containing vitamin E (tocotrienols) to help heal pressure ulcers (bedsores) in stages 1 or 2. It aims to see if this dressing can speed up wound healing over 6 months.
This trial compares two topical treatments—zinc oxide and MEBO—for stage 2 pressure ulcers (bedsores that are open but not too deep). It aims to see which works better to help these sores heal in patients at King Abdullah Medical City.
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.
This trial tests if special wound dressings (called cellular, acellular, or matrix-like products) can help heal severe pressure ulcers that haven't improved with standard care. It may be a good option if you have a stage 3 or 4 pressure ulcer on your lower back or tailbone area that's been there for at least a month.
This trial tests a new tissue-engineered skin substitute called NeoThelium FT for treating pressure injuries (bed sores) on the pelvis or lower legs. It may help heal wounds that haven't improved much with standard care.
This trial tests different wound-healing products (called CAMPs) to see if they work better than standard care for hard-to-heal pressure ulcers (bedsores). It might be a good fit if you have a long-lasting stage 3 or 4 bedsore on your trunk that is not infected.
