- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Participants With Change in Incontinence Associated Dermatitis Score Baseline and end of treatment (up to 3 weeks) Patients who were experiencing Incontinence Associated Dermatitis (IAD) from exposure to urine, stool or a combination of both urine \& stool received an application of the barrier film every 72 hours. A skin assessment tool designed for IAD was used to document each patient's IAD score over time. The area scored was divided into 6 zones, l \& r buttocks, L \& right thighs, perianal \& gluteal cleft. The % area within each zone with denudement was X by 9, redness was X by 3 and healthy skin X 1. The total score range of the 6 zones was 0-3654 with 3654 being worst case scenario.
Improvement of IAD Score - At baseline (enrollment) the six zones were evaluated for % of denudement, redness, pink and healthy skin assessed. At the end of subject's participation, assessment were completed again to determine final score \& change for improvement was measured by reduction in IAD score No improvement of IAD score - No change in score Progression of IAD score - Increase in IAD score
