Test cinnamon dressing for smell and comfort of wounds
Part of Immune system & allergy, Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study checks whether a cinnamon anti-odor dressing improves quality of life for adults with very smelly wounds. Researchers will compare how the dressing affects comfort and smell, and how well patients can live day to day while treating the wound.

This study tests a new absorbable wound dressing that fights bacteria to help heal chronic wounds that haven't improved for at least a week. It might be a good option if you have a wound that's infected or has bacteria on it and is between the size of a coin and a small plate.
This trial tests whether a special silver dressing helps heal infected chronic wounds better than standard care. It may help people with certain types of wound infections that are not too large or severe.
This study tests three experimental bandages to see how well they stick and feel on the back. You may qualify if you have healthy skin and are willing to follow some simple rules about washing and lotions.
This study looks at fluid from chronic (non-healing) wounds to understand why they don't heal and how biofilms (bacteria that stick to wounds) affect healing. The goal is to find better ways to treat these wounds.
This trial compares two types of wound dressings, one with chlorhexidine and one with povidone iodine, to see which works better for healing after an injury like a cut or scrape. It is for people with fresh, mildly dirty wounds from trauma.
This study compares how safe and effective two different wound dressings are for chronic wounds (wounds that haven't healed for weeks or months). Researchers will evaluate which dressing works better at managing wounds that produce a lot of fluid.
