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).

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 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 an experimental medicine for people with small burns (10% or less of body surface). It aims to see if the treatment is safe and helps healing. The study has two phases: one for people getting skin grafts, and another for recent dermal burns.
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 type of wound dressing made from a special gel to help heal medium-sized burn wounds that need skin grafts. Researchers want to see if this dressing helps burns heal better and reduces scarring.
