Skin and gut bacteria in healed burn wounds
Part of Injuries & trauma, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at how burns change the bacteria on your skin and in your gut. It may help doctors understand healing better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 19 and 65 years old

This study looks at how severe burns change the bacteria in your gut and your immune system. It will track these changes to better understand recovery and find new ways to help healing.
This study compares two ways of finding germs (microbes) in burn wounds: traditional tissue swabs/cultures versus a newer DNA-based method. It may help improve how clinicians understand burn infections and tailor care.
This study looks at how the immune system fights fungus after a burn. It may help doctors understand which patients are at higher risk for infection and how to better protect them.
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 study looks at the bacteria (microbiome) living on the skin in people with specific skin conditions, and in healthy volunteers. The results may help researchers understand what skin microbes have to do with these diseases.
This study collects tissue and data from burn patients to build a better tool for predicting sepsis, a serious infection. If you qualify, your participation could help improve care for future burn patients.
