A Clinical Simulation Study of a Test Material on the Anterior Nares
Not Applicable
Completed
- Conditions
- Colonization, Asymptomatic
- Registration Number
- NCT05617729
- Lead Sponsor
- Center for Innovation and Research Organization
- Brief Summary
The objective of this study is simulate the clinical use of a test material within a 24h window. Efficacy will be simulated as the capacity of the material to reduce or clear the anterior nares bacterial population from opportunistic pathogens (e.g. Staphylococcus Aureus, Escherichia Coli, etc).
