Amniotic membrane powder for scalp wound healing
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This study tests whether a powder made from amniotic membrane (the tissue that surrounds a baby in the womb) can help heal large scalp wounds after Mohs surgery. It may help the wound heal faster and with less scarring.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having Mohs surgery on your scalp, and the wound is larger than about 2 inches across and goes down to the bone (deep layer).
- You are willing to come back for all follow-up visits and not use any other wound treatments during the study.
- You are not currently taking antibiotics for an infection, and you have no active infection.
- You have not been taking medications that affect wound healing (like steroids or retinoids) in the last 30 days.
- You do not have severe heart, liver, kidney, or blood-clotting problems, or uncontrolled diabetes.
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant during the study.

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 special membrane made from donated birth tissue (perinatal membrane) placed on a diabetic foot ulcer to help it heal faster. It's for people with diabetes whose foot ulcer hasn't healed after standard care for 4 weeks to a year.
This study tests a special amnion membrane graft to help heal chronic leg ulcers that haven't improved with standard care. The graft is placed on the wound to support healing, and results are compared with standard treatment alone.
This study tests a special wound covering made from amniotic membrane (the tissue that surrounds a baby in the womb) to see if it helps deep pressure ulcers heal faster. If you have a stage 3 or 4 pressure ulcer that hasn't improved with standard care, you may be able to join.
This trial tests a wound covering made from donated amniotic tissue (dehydrated human amnion membrane) placed on a diabetic foot ulcer that isn't healing. It aims to see if adding this membrane to standard wound care helps the ulcer close faster.
This study tests a special dressing (called CAMP) for healing wounds after skin cancer removal. The dressing is applied along with your usual care, and we compare it to usual care alone to see which helps wounds heal better.
