Amnion powder for scalp wound healing after Mohs surgery
Part of Skin clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having Mohs surgery on your scalp, and the final wound will be at least 4 cm² (about the size of a large postage stamp) and deep enough that all fat is removed.
- You must avoid using other wound coverings or joining another clinical trial during the study.
- You must have no active infections, uncontrolled diabetes, liver or kidney problems, or blood-clotting disorders.
- You cannot be taking medications that affect wound healing (like steroids) within 30 days of surgery.
- You must be willing to complete all follow-up visits as scheduled.

This trial studies whether applying a silicone ointment before and around the time of planned head or neck surgery can improve how your wound heals after surgery. It may help reduce problems like poor scar healing, but you can only join if you meet specific medical and safety requirements.
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 is testing a new wound dressing (CAMP) plus standard care versus standard care alone for healing skin cancer surgery wounds. It's for people who have had Mohs surgery and whose wound can heal on its own without a flap or graft.
This study tests whether a medication called timolol can help scalp wounds heal better and look better after Mohs surgery (a precise skin cancer removal procedure). Timolol is typically used for eye pressure and blood pressure, but researchers believe it may reduce scarring and improve wound healing.
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 trial tests if a special type of bandage (hydrocolloid dressing) helps heal wounds after eye or face surgery. The goal is to see if it improves healing and comfort.
