- Detailed Description
This post market clinical follow-up investigation is designed as an open, non-controlled, multi- centre, clinical investigation.
A total of approximately 25 subjects from among 4-6 clinical investigative sites will be evaluated providing they fulfill all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria. A signed and dated informed consent/assent will be obtained for all subjects.
Subjects to be included will present with a thermal burn injury that will require skin grafting and result in a donor site. Overall percent Total Body Surface Area (%TBSA) burned will not exceed 30%.
The subjects will be consecutively allocated to a subject code providing they fulfill all inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria and have signed a written consent.
The subjects were participating in the study for 14 days postop.

Group Intervention Description Mepilex® Transfer Ag Mepilex® Transfer Ag Donor site dressing device in the very same patient. Mepitel® Ag Mepitel® Ag A dressing device used for surgical burn wounds with skin graft.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Part A: Number of Participants With Healing 14 days Part A: Adequate take of skin graft (defined as at least 95% adherent and healed as assessed by clinical investigator).
Part B 14 days with 2 visits Part B: The healing percentage of donor sites (defined as greater than 95% epithelialization, verified by quantitative photographic analysis).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Part A Secondary Outcome. 14 days with 2 visits Satisfactory fixation of the product over the skin graft was assessed by a series of questions regarding the product assessment of product in place at each visit.
Ability to pass exudate to the secondary dressing was demonstrated by a series of questions regarding the exudate at each visit as well as the adherence of the dressing at removal which would show the ability of the dressing to pass the exudate to the secondary dressing rather than creating eschar between the wound and the dressing.Part B Secondary Outcome. 14 days with 2 visits Ability of Mepilex® Transfer Ag to adhere to donor site without slippage.
