Brief summary describing the background
and objectives of the trial

Purpose of the Study
The purpose of the study is to compare the outcome of acute wounds managed with Biodress, Honey and Povidone-iodine ointment after cleansing the wounds with normal saline (cleansing agent). The outcome parameters to be measured are the healing rate, presence of wound complications, ease of product use, cost of wound care, quality of life.
Analysis:
1- Epithelisation/Healing- Wound diameter/size, Wound bed
2- Pain on presentation (during dressings)
3- Wound complications (infection, pruritus, edema, allergy) – using the Delphi approach
4- Cost of wound care – unit cost of the dressing materials (biodress, honey, povidone) as well as other materials (dressing packs, normal saline)
5- Ease of use – average time it takes to remove old dressings, and average time it takes to dress the wound.
6- Length of hospital stay
7- Quality of life - using WoundQOL (With permission from the authors)
8- Treatment failure |
