Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  In group I (control group)  patients with large posttraumatic raw area will be treated with the conventional wound dressing which will be changed daily and assessed till the wound is ready for grafting or flap cover. 
Intervention  In the Group II amniotic membrane (AM)  Patients with large posttraumatic area, amniotic membrane (AM) dressing will be used and held in place with a secondary dressing. Only the secondary dressing will be changed daily. The post traumatic raw area will be assessed by Bates Jensen Wound assessment tool and the photo documentation will done. The time frame will initial baseline ie one day one then on 7th, 14th and 28th day of the treatment period.

Brief Summary
Modification(s)  

A randomized pilot study to evaluate the efficacy of amniotic membrane as an alternative wound dressing in patients with large posttraumatic raw area at level 1 Trauma Center.

 

This is an open label , pilot study to assess the efficacy of  amniotic membrane as a wound dressing. It will be tested in patients with large post traumatic raw area requiring coverage with skin grafts or flaps,  which needs an appropriate wound dressing till the wound bed is  ready for  grafting or flap cover. Patients will be randomized in two groups  using sealed envelope method. In group I (control group) patients will be treated with the conventional wound dressing. In the Group II amniotic membrane (AM) dressing will be used. The wound will be observed for healing and any signs of infection. In both the group patients the post traumatic raw area will be assessed by Bates Jensen Wound assessment tool and the photo documentation will be done. The time frame will initial baseline ie one day one then on 7th, 14th and 28th day of the treatment period. During this treatment period assessment of pain will also be done with Visual analog scale. Primary and secondary outcome measures will be noted and analyzed.

 

 Placenta will be obtained from the patient undergoing an elective caesarian section and willing for a repeat serological test after 3month.The donor blood serological test will be performed and the placenta will be used only if the serological test will be negative for HIV, Hepatitis B and C and VDRL at baseline.

Placenta will be collected in a sterile storage container containing  transport media and it will be transported to Stem Cell Facility (DBT Center of Excellence for Stem Cell Research), CTC, AIIMS. At this facility, amniotic membrane will be processed and  be stored at –80° c in deep freezer for further use as per the requirement.

 

For transfer to the patient, the amniotic membrane will be applied on large post traumatic raw in patient admitted  in trauma surgery unit, to prepare the wound bed for early grafting or flap cover. The need for advanced dressing or allograft can be avoided by this strategy.
