Testing a new dressing for deep wounds to speed healing
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a special wound dressing (SupraSDRM®) to help deep, full-thickness wounds heal faster and reduce the time needed before a skin graft can be placed. It may be an option for people with a large, deep wound from an injury, surgery, or burn that isn't ready for a graft yet.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old.
- You have a deep wound that goes through all layers of skin – from a bad injury, surgery, or full-thickness burn – and your surgeon has decided not to do a skin graft right away.
- Your wound is at least 5 cm² (about the size of a 50-cent coin).
- The wound is not on your face, neck, or genital area, and is not a pressure sore or infected at the time of treatment.
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking steroids or immune-suppressing drugs, and you do not have uncontrolled diabetes (HbA1c over 10).

This study tests how well a pig-based covering dressing works on skin graft donor-site wounds (where skin is taken to make a graft). It may help support faster, safer healing after a split-thickness skin graft.
This study tests a special fiber mat called Restrata that is placed in the wound after skin cancer removal to help it heal. The mat acts as a scaffold for new skin growth and may help close the wound without needing a skin graft.
This study tests a new skin substitute called NovoSorb BTM for treating deep wounds that need a skin graft. If you have a large, full-thickness wound from an injury or reconstructive surgery, this trial may be an option to help your skin heal better.
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 'living' dressing made from plant cells that might help deep skin wounds heal faster and better. It could be an option if you have a relatively large, clean wound that needs new skin growth.
This trial tests a type of dressing that helps clean and heal wounds that have not improved for at least six weeks. The dressings are designed to trap and remove bacteria, which may help your wound heal faster.
