Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) ScoresAt Baseline, at 6 Weeks

Participant quality of life as measured via DLQI. DLQI has a total score ranging from 0-30 with the higher score indicating more impairment on the participant's quality of life.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants Reporting Dressing Preference for Each Specific Body PartVisit 1 (Day 14)

Participant reported dressing preference for specific body parts for each of the interventions received.

Average Frequency of Dressing Changes6 Weeks

Participant reported frequency of dressing changes per wound per day. For participants with multiple wounds/lesions, the frequency of dressing changes will be a comprehensive assessment of all wounds/lesions.

Odor RatingAt Baseline, at 6 Weeks

Lesion odor rating will be evaluated using a 4 point Likert scale ranging from 1-4 with the higher score indicating increased lesion odor. For participants with multiple wounds/lesions, the odor rating will be a comprehensive assessment of all wounds/lesions.

Number of Participants at Each Hidradenitis Suppurativa Physician Global Assessment (HS-PGA) GradingAt 6 Weeks

HS-PGA Scale scores patient disease severity as one of the following: clear, minimal, mild, moderate, severe, and very severe. The number of participants scored at each scale will be reported.

Average Pain as Assessed by the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS)At Baseline, at 6 Weeks

The average pain reported over the last 24 hours will be measured using the NRS with scores ranging from 0-10 with the higher score indicating more severe pain.

Number of Participants Reporting Overall Dressing Preference for Specific Body PartAt Baseline

Overall dressing preference will be reported as the number of participants preferring to use a particular wound dressing in the kit provided.

Maximal Pain as Assessed by the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS)At Baseline, at 6 Weeks

The pain rating at its worse over the last 24 hours will be reported as the maximal pain using the NRS with scores ranging from 0-10 with the higher score indicating more severe pain.

Sleep RatingAt Baseline, at 6 Weeks

Sleep rating will be evaluated using a 5 point Likert scale ranging from 1-5 with the higher score indicating increased sleep disturbance.

Drainage RatingAt Baseline, at 6 Weeks

Lesion drainage rating will be evaluated using a 4 point Likert scale ranging from 1-4 with the higher score indicating increased lesion draining. For participants with multiple wounds/lesions, the drainage rating will be a comprehensive assessment of all wounds/lesions.
