Evaluation of ACell Hydrated Wound Dressing for Autogenous Skin Donor Sites

Withdrawn before enrolling · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Burns

In brief

The purpose of this study is to see if treating a donor site wound with the ACell dressing is as good as or better than the dressings we currently treat harvested donor sites with. This will be tested on consenting burn patients who require excision and grafting surgery for their burn wounds. Hypothesis: The mean healing time for wounds treated with the ACell dressing will be less than the mean healing time for wounds treated with the Standard of Care dressing.
