Silicone membrane for second-degree burns and skin grafts
Part of Injuries & trauma, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests a new transparent silicone membrane for treating second-degree burns and skin graft wounds. It may help healing by providing a special surface, and the study will see if it works better than standard dressings.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 12 and 70 years old.
- You have a second-degree burn that covers more than 1% of your body, and at least one patch is about 10 cm by 10 cm (roughly the size of a large hand).
- You are willing to sign a form saying you agree to participate.
- You are not pregnant, do not have serious heart, lung, or kidney problems, and are not critically ill or fighting a serious infection.
- You are not known to be allergic to the dressing materials, do not have diabetes or immune disorders, and are not on long-term hormone or immune-suppressing therapy.
- Your burn is not on the face, hands, groin, joints, or feet (areas that are hard to bandage).

This study tests a new dressing for burns that may need skin grafts. The dressing is made from a gel that helps wounds heal, and the study aims to see if it works better than standard care.
This trial tests a new way to help second-degree burns heal. Doctors take a small sample of your own skin cells, turn them into a liquid, and apply that liquid with a special dressing to the burn. This may help your skin regrow faster and with less scarring.
This study tests a new pig-skin graft called realSKIN to see if it can close deep burn wounds as well as a patient's own skin graft. It may offer an alternative for people with severe burns who need surgery.
This trial tests whether mesenchymal stem cells (a type of healing cell) can help burn wounds recover better when combined with skin grafting. The goal is to improve how well the grafted skin takes and heals.
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.
This trial tests whether a new dressing made from amniotic membrane works better than a standard silver dressing for second-degree burns. It may help burns heal faster and with less pain.
