Using Santyl or Bacitracin on Second Degree Burns

Phase 4

Withdrawn

• Conditions: Burn, Partial Thickness
• Interventions: Drug: Collagenase Santyl; Biological: Bacitracin

• Registration Number: NCT01516463
• Lead Sponsor: Healthpoint

Brief Summary

Subjects who have minor, second degree burns may be enrolled in this study. Subjects will receive either Santyl ointment or bacitracin ointment to apply to the burn until it heals. Bandages will be used to keep the burn covered while it heals. Second degree burns generally leave a scar. Once the burn heals, lotion and an appropriate bandage will be used to try to minimize the appearance of a scar.

The study hypothesis is that burns treated with Santyl will have a better scar appearance than burns treated with bacitracin.

Subjects enrolled in this study will make once a week visits to the University of Kansas Medical Center outpatient burn clinic until the burn heals. The burn will be assessed for healing at these visits. Once healed, visits to the clinic will be every 1-3 months for up to 1 year. At these visits, the appearance of the scar will be evaluated

• • are not visibly infected
• Able to take in oral fluids.
• Able to comply with the requirement for daily dressing changes, or have a caretaker who is able to comply.
