- Using Santyl or Bacitracin on Second Degree Burns

- Identifier
- clinicaltrials:NCT01516463
- Description
- Subjects who have minor, second degree burns may be enrolled in this study. Subjects will
receive either Santyl ointment or bacitracin ointment to apply to the burn until it heals.
Bandages will be used to keep the burn covered while it heals. Second degree burns generally
leave a scar. Once the burn heals, lotion and an appropriate bandage will be used to try to
minimize the appearance of a scar.
The study hypothesis is that burns treated with Santyl will have a better scar appearance
than burns treated with bacitracin.
Subjects enrolled in this study will make once a week visits to the University of Kansas
Medical Center outpatient burn clinic until the burn heals. The burn will be assessed for
healing at these visits. Once healed, visits to the clinic will be every 1-3 months for up to
1 year. At these visits, the appearance of the scar will be evaluated - Data or Study Types
