Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Inclusion criteria includes patient age 18 years and older who presented with an abrasion wound within 24 hours of the accidents. Severity is limited to second-degree abrasion which involves both the epidermis and the dermis or a third-degree abrasion which involves damage that extends to the subcutaneous layer of the skin.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Exclusion criteria include other wound types apart from abrasion wounds such as laceration wound and pressure wound. Abrasion wounds at certain areas such as genitalia and anus are excluded. These areas are areas that are difficult to measure the wound size correctly due to anatomical limitation, and areas that are concerned with patients privacy. Abrasion wounds that occurred more than 24 hours are excluded from this study as well. Patients with specific comorbidities such as disorders requiring long term immunosuppressant drugs, other immunosuppressant patients, and patients with cirrhosis or chronic kidney disease, are excluded as these factors can be confounding factors on wound healing process.
