Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Extent of Atrophic areas: The area of Atrophic areas measured by caliper in square millimeters.Extent of Ulcerative areas: The area of the wound area measured by the caliper. Area of Keratotic areas: Area of Keratotic areas measured by caliper. Intensity of pain and irritation: The scale of pain and oral mucosa irritation that the patient reports according to VAS. Timepoint: At the beginning of study and a month after the start of the study. Method of measurement: To measure the area of the affected areas, the largest lesion diameters are measured by a caliper and their product is considered as the area of the target area. If the patient has similar lesions in several areas, the area of all these areas will be added together and this amount will be reported. The scale of pain and irritation is measured by the Visual Analogue Scale. This method of measurement asks the patient to rate their pain and irritation from 0 (with no pain and irritation) to 10 (the most severe pain and irritation).
