Active clinical trials for "Diaper Rash"

The purpose of the study is to examine the safety and effectiveness of the use of coconut oil for the prevention and treatment of diaper dermatitis among NICU babies at Genesis Medical Center, Davenport.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the microbiome composition of infant's (9-12 month) skin experiencing diaper rash in order to determine if the onset and severity of erythema associated with diaper rash is influenced by the type of bacteria colonizing the skin.

This study aims to identify differences and similarities between superficial pressure ulcers (category II and III) and incontinence-associated dermatitis (category IIA) at tissue level. Skin biopsies will be obtained from 30 patients with pressure ulcers (n = 10), incontinence-associated dermatitis (n = 10), and combined lesions (n = 10). The results from the histopathologic examination will be compared with the clinical diagnosis by wound care experts, which will be based on photographs and relevant patients' characteristics.

The primary objective of this study is to collect feces from premature infants over a five weeks period to characterize its composition. Metabolomics, Proteomics, Genomics and Microbiome analyses and cell-based assays will be performed to identify individual components present in feces, which may contribute to the onset of irritation in the diapered area of premature infants.

This is a prospective, pilot study to explore the relationship between an infant's nutrition, skin and stool composition at different ages.

Diaper dermatitis is one of the most common skin problems in infants and children.It is a skin disorder in the perineal , perianal and surrounding area .It frequently occurs also in areas immediately adjacent to the diaper area . Diaper dermatitis is caused by lack of fresh air,dampness and irritation.With prevelance from 7-35 % in newborns.This skin disorder typically develops between nine and twelve months of age .
