Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Graft shrinkage during follow-up periods measured using a computer program that measures graft dimensions through photographs taken at 7, 14, 21, 28, 60, and 90 days | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Epithelization measured using examination of epithelial formation at the graft site and donor site with Toluidine blue in the donor and recipient regions at 7, 14, 21, 28, 60, and 90 days 2. Mucosal scar measured using Mucosal Scarring Index at 7, 14, 21, 28, 60, and 90 days 3. Pain in the donor and recipient regions is measured using a visual analog scale (VAS) at 2 h after surgery, and at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 days 4. Healing in donor site measured using Wound Healing index (by Landry, Turnbull, and Howley) at 7, 15, 21, 28, 60, and 90 days | — |
