Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects are excluded from participation in this study if any of the answers to these following questions is yes.

    1. If female, is the subject pregnant or breast feeding or has she given birth within the 3 weeks preceding the screening visit?
    2. Does the subject have a known allergy to acrylates or cyanoacrylates?
    3. Does the subject have a Stage III, IV, unstageable, suspected deep tissue injury pressure ulcer in the area where the skin is affected by incontinence?
    4. Does the subject have a preexisting skin disease on the areas affected by incontinence that may make skin assessments for this study difficult?
    5. Does the skin area affected by incontinence require treatment with a concomitant medication or product?
    6. Does the subject have an active genital herpes infection?
    7. Has the subject received antifungal powders in the area affected with IAD within 24 hours prior to enrollment?
    8. Has the subject received cyanoacrylate based skin protectant (such as Marathon) within 72 hours prior to enrollment?
    9. Is the facility unwilling to discontinue use for this subject of Dimethicone-containing wipes on the area where the skin protectant product will be applied?
    10. Is the facility unwilling to discontinue use for this subject of Chlorhexidine Gluconate wipes on the area where the skin protectant product will be applied?
    11. Does the subject have any medical condition that in the opinion of the investigator should exclude him/her from participating in the study?
    12. Has the subject been enrolled in any investigational study where product was applied to proposed study sites within 30 days of the screening visit?

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Active Comparator

Arm Label

Cavilon Advanced Skin Protectant

ConvaTec Sensi-Care Protective Barrier

Arm Description

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percent Change From Baseline to End of Study in Incontinence Associated Dermatitis (IAD) Scores
Primary endpoint was percent decrease in Incontinence Associated Dermatitis (IAD) score from baseline to end of subject's participation. A negative value indicates increased IAD score; a positive value indicates decreased IAD score. IAD scores were calculated for 6 anatomical zones for color, presence of lesions, and skin loss using 3M's Skin Condition Assessment Tool. Skin condition assessed for 1) epidermal loss depth & area involved; 2) skin color intact skin & % area if not normal color. Intensity scored based on % area involved. Epidermal loss intensity rating scores ranged from 0 (none) - 4 (76-100%) partial (skin open, not weeping) or complete (skin open & weeping). Color of intact skin rating scores ranged from 0 (skin color normal) - 4 (76-100%) skin color pink or red. Scores for each of the 6 body zones were combined to obtain a single IAD score for each subject. IAD scores ranged from 0 (best) - 720 (worst).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Re-epithelialization to a Category 1 or Lower
Looking for healing of denuded skin to re-epithelialized skin.
Pain Scores During Incontinence Management
Pain scores during incontinence management were measured on a 0-10 scale, and analyzed only for subjects from the intent-to-treat dataset who could report pain. Adult pain was measured on 0-10 Wong-Baker FACES® Pain Scale Visual Analog to see if there is pain reduction (0 - no pain; 10 - worst pain). Pain in pediatric patients was measured with the 0-10 FLACC (Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability Behavioral) Tool. FLACC tool scores pain based on 5 categories, each scored on 0-2 scale and a total score calculated from the sum of the 5 categories for a total possible 0 (no pain) - 10 (worst pain) score. Data from the 2 scales were combined for analysis. Reduction in pain scores collected during product application were reported and least squares means adjusted for baseline pain score as a covariate were calculated. Negative value indicates reduction in pain score; positive value indicates increased pain score.
Prevention of IAD.
Number of subjects with areas of buttock and thighs that were free of IAD at baseline and remained free of damage with ongoing incontinence through 5 days of treatment.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the investigational product (3M™ Cavilon™ Advanced High Endurance Skin Protectant) for the treatment of incontinence associated dermatitis.
Detailed Description
The purpose of this study is to evaluated the product performance of a new skin protectant formulated to protect damaged and denuded skin even in the presence of exposure to the most potentially damaging body fluids, such as liquid stool and gastric fluid. The product is expected to intimately adhere to damaged and denuded skin and provide better protection from further damage than commonly used products such as moisture barrier pastes, thereby making it easier for nursing staff to cleanse the skin after incontinence episodes, thus saving time and also materials. The denuded sites on buttocks/thighs will be scored for skin loss and degree of redness. Over the course of time, with the skin protected, it should re-epithelizes. The skin improvement will be scored and the change in baseline over time monitored.
