Brief Summary

PRF Based Dressing Versus AQUACEL® for Local Treatment of Skin Graft Donor Site: A Non-Inferiority Trial

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A prospective single-blind study, where the evaluator is blinded to the treatment. Each patient will be dressed with both Aquacel® and PRF dressing. Half of the donor site area will be dressed with PRF dressing, and half with Aquacel®.

3 days after surgery the patients will be asked to complete a VAS questionnaire. A week and 2 weeks after surgery, patients will have their dressing changed as in the first treatment, and will answer VAS(9) and bluebelle(10) questionnaires. The wound will be photographed again for follow-up. Three weeks, 6 weeks and 3 months after surgery the scar in the donor area will be evaluated. The photographs will be shown to the blinded evaluator, to evaluate wound healing by epithelialization estimation.
