Comparing two dressings for skin graft donor sites
Part of Injuries & trauma, Skin clinical trials.
This study compares two types of dressings used on the area where a skin graft is taken from, to see which one helps the wound heal better and with less discomfort.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having a skin graft procedure.
- The donor site (where the skin is taken from) is between 25 and 200 square centimeters.
- You do not have conditions that slow healing, like diabetes or cancer.
- You are not taking medications that suppress your immune system.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.

This trial compares aloe vera dressing with paraffin tulle dressing to see which one reduces pain better at the area where a skin graft was taken. If you need a skin graft and are not allergic to either dressing, this study may help find a gentler way to manage your pain.
This trial tests a new transparent silicone membrane for treating second-degree burns and skin graft wounds. It may help healing by providing a special surface, and the study will see if it works better than standard dressings.
This trial tests two different dressings used on the area where a skin graft is taken from (the donor site) to see which one heals better and is more comfortable. If you are having a skin graft, this study compares both dressings on the same wound so you can see which works best.
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 trial tests a new bandage (called Microlyte DualGuard) for the spot on your thigh where skin is taken for a graft. The bandage contains silver and gallium, which may help the wound heal and reduce infection. The study will check if the bandage is safe and how well it works.
This trial studies whether a special suction dressing (negative pressure) helps healing at the skin-graft donor site for people getting a fibula free flap. It may reduce complications and improve how the graft takes, compared with standard care.
