简要总结
Surgical wounds, especially in co-morbid conditions, pose significant challenges in management. The growing use of multiple medications in healthcare highlights their relevance, yet applying them effectively in surgical wound care is comparable to "separating diamonds from the ore." Despite efforts to unravel wound molecular intricacies and explore the impact of various molecules, a definitive, evidence-based therapy for wounds remains elusive. The recent pandemic has exacerbated healthcare challenges due to limited access to facilities. In addressing clinical challenges, a clear understanding of protease enzymes is essential, offering clinicians better options for selecting appropriate drug regimens.
Thus, the aim of the study was to compare the short-term efficacy and tolerability of an oral enzyme supplement (EnMax) with the placebo and similar market product post –operative patients. The present trial was undertaken to ascertain whether oral proteolytic enzymes would act systemically to exert an anti-edema effect, thereby encouraging more rapid wound healing following surgery.

结局指标
主要结局
1.Changes in inflammation score (edema) on VRS
时间窗: At day 1, 2, 5, and 7.
2.Changes in pain score on VAS
时间窗: At day 1, 2, 5, and 7.
次要结局
- The impact of investigational products on inflammatory biomarkers (ESR and CRP), analgesic requirement, and overall improvement in post-operative wound healing.(Safety of the interventions will be assessed by analyzing changes laboratory investigations, monitoring the adverse events profile and evaluating the compliance and tolerability of the investigational product throughout the study.)
