Healing of Donor Site, Pain Level
Conditions
Brief summary
Use of AWBAT-D on split thickness skin graft sites will reduce healing time and pain level.
Detailed description
The study is designed as a randomized-controlled trial to examine split thickness skin graft donor wound site healing using AWBAT-D compared to current standard of care: Tegaderm. This will involve randomizing subjects to treatment with the AWBAT-D dressing or Tegaderm and monitoring outcomes. The AWBAT-D device has collagen and we hypothesize that the wounds treated with it will heal faster and with a decreased pain level. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if there are differences in outcomes between AWBAT-D and Tegaderm in healing split thickness skin graft donor sites.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
1. Subject is 18 years of age or older 2. Subjects requiring a split-thickness skin graft with a wound size between 5 and 50cm2 and a depth between 12-18um. 3. Ability and willingness to understand and comply with study procedures and to give written informed consent prior to enrollment in the study.
Exclusion criteria
1. Subjects \< 18 years of age 2. Subjects with an allergy to porcine products. 3. Subjects undergoing STSG with a wound size less than 5 cm2 or greater than 50cm2. 4. Subjects undergoing STSG with a wound depth of less than 12um or greater than 18um. 5. Subjects undergoing repeat skin graft harvesting at the same donor site. 6.
