Thermal Burn clinical trials at University of California Health
2 research studies open to eligible people
Evaluation of the Effectiveness of PermeaDerm® (PD) as Compared to Mepilex Ag®
open to eligible people ages up to 75 years
A total of 68 adult and pediatric patients who suffer from at least one discrete partial thickness thermal burn wound (Grade II) will be recruited. Subjects will be randomized (1:1) to either PermeaDerm® or Mepilex Ag®. Evaluations will occur at 7, 14 and 21 days with long term follow-up at 6 and 12 months.

STAT Study: Standard Therapy Plus Active Therapy for Severe Burns After Skin Graft Surgery
open to eligible people ages 18-65
The objective of the study is to assess the efficacy of STAT, an activity-based therapy protocol compared to standard therapy (ST) to improve functional outcome and reduce disability in patients recovering from burn injury. This randomized multi-center trial is designed with two parallel treatment groups: STAT and ST. Efficacy of the STAT protocol will be determined through comparison to the ST only group. It will be conducted at seven burn centers.
