Active clinical trials for "Erythema"

Objective of the trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of Montelukast in treatment of Erythema Nodosum leprosum (ENL) reaction in multibacillary leprosy patients either in combination with prednisolone or alone. Hypothesis is that montelukast will reduce the severity of ENL reaction in Multibacillary leprosy patients without causing an unacceptably high incidence of adverse effects. Design is a multicentre hospital-based single-blind prospective trial for leprosy patients with ENL reaction. prior written consent will be taken from the patients who will undergo the trial. Endpoints are decrease in severity of ENL and absence of new nerve function impairment

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of 15-day ceftriaxone versus 15-day doxycycline treatment in patients with multiple erythema migrans.

This is a randomized, controlled, prospective study which relies on computer-assisted skin image processing of scar photographs, to establish whether simple interrupted or running sutures are associated with the greatest degree of erythema when used to repair surgical defects arising from Moh's micrographic surgery (MMS) of facial skin cancers. Furthermore, through the use of the customized software that the investigators have developed for this purpose, an effort will be made to better understand the evolution (including progression and subsequent regression) of erythema over time in these scars.

To evaluate the photo-protector effect of BC_3 (E212657) formulated in SPF compared to SPF alone on long-UVA induced pigmentation in healthy volunteers.

The purpose of the study is to compare efficacy and adverse effects of pulsed dye laser and intense pulsed light in patients with skin telangiectasia and redness.

Consumer products or raw materials designed for consistent reapplication to areas of the skin may, under proper conditions, prove to be contact sensitizers or irritants in certain individuals. It is the intention of a Repeat Insult Patch Test (RIPT) to provide a basis for evaluation of this irritation/sensitization potential if such exists.

This study compares TegadermTM and EyeGard® in general anesthesia.

While adhesive tape is commonly used to secure endotracheal tubes (ETT) during general anesthesia, its use is also associated with facial skin injuries. Although a variety of adhesive tapes are used in clinical practice, few studies have investigated the likelihood of adhesives in producing injury. The purpose of this randomized, controlled, non-inferiority study was to compare the proportion of facial skin injury with Durapore™ vs. Hy-Tape®.

This is a randomized, double-blinded, single-center, split body and split face, multiple natural sunlight exposure evaluation of two marketed sunscreens under actual use conditions in healthy volunteers. Eligible subjects will be randomized to two treatment randomization groups: Left SPF (Sun Protection Factor) 100+/Right SPF 50+ or Left SPF 50+/Right SPF 100+. Assessment of erythema and pigmentation will be performed at baseline and after all natural sunlight exposure periods which will occur on at the same beach location over the course of 5 consecutive days. Subjects will be suspended from further natural light exposure periods following the observation of sunburn at any exposed body site.

The purpose of this test is to evaluate the sensitizing potential of a personal lubricant, as a result of repeated occlusive patch. The intervention will be applied for a total of 9 induction applications, followed by an approximately 2 week rest period, then followed by a 24-72 hour Challenge applications.
