This study compares different liquids used to clean burn wounds to see which one helps with healing, pain, fear, and anxiety in children. It could help make burn care more comfortable for kids.
This trial compares two ways of preventing infection in children with burns: applying antibiotic cream directly to the wound versus giving antibiotics by mouth. It aims to see which method works better for healing and preventing complications.
This study tests a cream that contains good bacteria (probiotics) to see if it helps children with dry skin. It aims to find out if the cream is safe and works well for kids from birth to 7 years old.
This trial tests a liquid made from exosomes (tiny particles that help cells communicate) applied to the skin of healthy people. The goal is to see if it's safe before it's used on surgical wounds in the future. You'll be closely monitored with skin checks and photographs.
