Skin wetting in burn survivors
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests how wetting the skin affects burn survivors and healthy volunteers. It may help find ways to manage body temperature or improve comfort during recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 to 65 years old.
- You are generally healthy with no chronic medical conditions like heart disease, diabetes, or high blood pressure.
- Your body mass index is 30 or less.
- You have not smoked regularly in the past 3 years.
- You do not take part in a regular moderate-to-high intensity exercise program (like running or cycling classes).
- If you are a burn survivor, your burn covered 20% or more of your body and at least half of that was full thickness (through all skin layers) and needed skin grafts. You were also hospitalized for at least 15 days.

This study looks at how humidity affects sleep and work-rest cycles in people recovering from burns. It compares three groups: people without burns, those with moderate burns (20-40% of body), and those with large burns (over 40%). The goal is to understand how to improve recovery.
This study looks at how a simulated burn injury affects your body's recovery after exercising in hot conditions. It may help people understand how burns impact recovery in the heat.
This study collects tissue and blood samples from burn patients to improve a computer model that predicts sepsis (a severe infection). The goal is to help doctors identify and treat sepsis earlier in burn patients.
This study looks at how heat affects the body in people with stable heart failure compared to healthy volunteers. It may help researchers understand how to better manage heart failure in daily life.
This study looks at how different cooling methods affect older adults during heat waves. It may help identify safer ways to reduce heat-related stress for people at risk.
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.
