Active clinical trials for "Wound Infection"

The aim of the present study is to assess effect of local wound infiltration in comparison with caudal block by bupivacaine 0.25% after inguinal herniotomy in pediatrics on: Wound infection and healing (primary outcome) and postoperative analgesia (secondary outcome).

The goal of this study is to perform a randomized clinical trial to assess the effects of vitamin C versus placebo on wound healing in mandibular fracture patients.

To compare the efficacy of treatment with a single dose of dalbavancin 1500 mg to treatment with a two dose regimen of dalbavancin (1000 mg on Day 1 followed by 500 mg on Day 8) in participants with known or suspected Gram-positive acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI) at 48 -72 hours after initiation of treatment.

This study would like to determine if using negative pressure wound therapy with an instillation of .125% Dakins is more effective than using negative pressure wound therapy alone on biofilm removal, disruption and elimination in chronically infected lower extremity wounds.

This is a double-blind, randomized, parallel-group, controlled, multi-center study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of RUT058-60 (Group A) as an intra-cavity lavage compared to sterile saline (Group B) in adult subjects undergoing abdominal surgery.

This study evaluates the efficacy of local application of ozone gas in healing of infected ulcers. Half the participants received conventional treatment with placebo generator and the other half received conventional treatment with ozone generator.

The purpose of this randomized, prospective study is to evaluate how this activated carbon dressing affects the total bacterial load and biofilm in a wound bed in wounds of the lower extremity and foot. We anticipate that the use of Zorflex® Activated Carbon Cloth dressing will maintain the bacterial burden in the wound bed below the level of critical colonization, with potential secondary benefits of pain reduction, decrease in inflammation, and control of odor. Wound bed healing progression/acceleration also will be assessed.

The purpose of this study is to support the rational use of iodophor-impregnated surgical adhesive drapes for preventing wound infections after total hip arthroplasty.

To evaluate the risk of postoperative wound complications following the use of Avelle negative pressure wound therapy in patients undergoing mastectomy and flap fixation, which might serve as a basis for a randomized controlled trial

The Prophylactic Negative Pressure Wound Therapy in Obese Women at Cesarean Trial is a large pragmatic multi-center randomized clinical trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness, safety and cost-effectiveness of prophylactic negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) - a closed, sealed system that applies negative pressure to the wound surface via a single-use, battery-powered, portable device - to decrease surgical site infections (SSIs) in obese women.
