Wound Healing
Conditions
Brief summary
Approximately 10 subjects from one clinic having sustained a burn injury covering 1-25% or the Total Body surface Area (TBSA)and assessed as superficial partial-thickness or superficial deep-partial-thickness. The subject will be assessed once a week for a maximum of 3 weeks or until the burn is healed if that occurs earlier. . The dressing Mepilex Transfer Ag will be used as wound contact layer and gauze rolls and compression as second dressing.
Detailed description
Approximately 10 subjects from one site will be evaluated provided they fulfill the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria and gives a signed and dated consent. Subjects may have sustained a burn injury covering 1-25% of the Total Body Surface Area (TBSA)and assessed as superficial partial-thickness or superficial deep-partial thickness in dept. Each subject will be followed one time per week for a maximum of 3 weeks or until the burn is healed if that occurs earlier. Healing is defined as ≥95% epithelialisation. Percent (%) healed epithelialization will be measured by photo analysing using the PictZar program. Dressing changes will be performed at each visit and in between if deemed necessary by the investigator.Gauze rolls and compression will be used as secondary dressing.All dressing changes will be registered in a log. Pain before, during and after removal will be assessed.

| Number of Participants With Wound Healing | 14 days and 21 days | Healing at day 14 pt 21. Healing was defined as ≥95% epithelialisation. The PictZar program will be used to analyze burn wound healing by tissue type. (The PictZar equipment for this analysis will be located at MHC HQ, however, the analysis will be performed by a clinician not affiliated with MHC.) Each subject was followed/assessed one time per week for a maximum of 3 weeks or until the burn was healed if that occured earlier. |
