Comparing a wound-healing gel to standard care after thyroid or parathyroid surgery
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study compares a special wound-healing gel (called AMNIOEFFECT) with standard care after thyroid or parathyroid surgery. The goal is to see if the gel helps your incision heal better.

This trial is testing if a technology called NTP (a type of low-temperature plasma) can help prevent complications and improve cancer control when they remove all or part of the thyroid gland. It's for adults having thyroid surgery.
This study tests whether an injection of a polynucleotide solution (a natural compound that may help tissue repair) into the surgical wound during neck surgery can improve the appearance and quality of the scar afterwards. It is for adults aged 40 to 60 who are having their first anterior neck surgery.
This study looks at how a wound dressing or treatment affects healing in surgical cuts that are closed with sutures or similar methods. You may be able to join if you’re having a skin surgery on the neck, trunk, or arms/legs with a long enough wound you can follow up on.
This study tests whether a special powder made from amniotic membrane helps scalp wounds heal faster after Mohs surgery. It is for patients whose wound is deep and at least 4 cm².
This trial tests a special gel applied during common ear surgeries to see if it helps healing and improves hearing. It may be an option for people having surgery to fix a perforated eardrum, repair ear bones, or treat chronic ear infections.
