Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the effectiveness of Plurogel® compared to standard antibiotic topical dressings in treating partial thickness burn injuries. The study aims to determine if Plurogel® can reduce the need for surgical debridement and improve healing outcomes. Participants will be individuals with bilateral limb partial thickness burns, and the trial will assess the healing process and pain management associated with each dressing type. The study is conducted in phases 1 and 2 to ensure safety and efficacy.
