To evaluate the performance of Jelonet Plus (JP) and UrgoTul (UT), assessing pain at dressing removal when managing acute or chronic wounds at granulation and epithelialisation stages.
This was a randomised, multicentre, controlled single-blinded study using a cross-over design. Hospitalised and ambulatory patients presenting with non-infected acute or chronic wounds (at least 40% of wound area of ≤100cm covered with granulation tissue) were randomly allocated to be treated with either JP or UT dressings applied according to a standardised local care procedure for two days. At the following visit, patients received the other dressing for a second 2-day period. Pain was evaluated after two days of dressing application and immediately after its removal using a 100mm Visual Analog Scale (VAS). A pain level >30mm was considered as clinically relevant. A lower limit of -12% was determined as the threshold necessary to demonstrate the non-inferiority of JP compared to UT.
For the 99 patients completing the study, a difference of 7.9% was observed in favour of JP (83.8% JP versus 75.9% UT) for pain immediately after dressing removal (VAS score < 30mm) with a confidence interval (CI) lower limit of -2.6%, demonstrating non-inferiority (pre-defined limit of -12%). Concerning pain at dressing removal, a difference of 19.6% was observed in favour of JP (81.6% versus 62.0%; p=0.029 for superiority analysis), with a CI lower limit ranging from 2.4% to 38.9%. Therefore, superiority could be concluded. A statistically significant period effect was detected (p=0.003) with fewer patients experiencing pain after the second period day 2 (D2) to day 4 (D4) than the first day 0 (D0) to D2. A statistically significant cross-over effect was also detected (p=0.047), with fewer patients experiencing pain when JP was applied first followed by UT. This suggests a carry-over effect thus preventing a full cross-over design analysis. Adherence of the dressing was less frequent with the JP than the UT dressing (2.0% JP versus 6.9% with UT).
Non-inferiority of pain at dressing removal was demonstrated with JP. Superiority on this criteria was non-significant but we found adherence of the dressing to the wound bed to be more rare.
评估Jelonet Plus(JP)和UrgoTul(UT)在处理处于肉芽形成和上皮形成阶段的急性或慢性伤口时,去除敷料时的疼痛表现。
这是一项采用交叉设计的随机、多中心、对照单盲研究。住院和门诊患者,患有未感染的急性或慢性伤口(至少40%的伤口面积≤100平方厘米,覆盖有肉芽组织),被随机分配接受JP或UT敷料治疗,按照标准化的局部护理程序应用两天。在接下来的就诊时,患者接受另一种敷料治疗,为期两天。在敷料应用两天后以及去除后立即使用100毫米视觉模拟量表(VAS)评估疼痛。疼痛水平>30毫米被认为具有临床相关性。确定下限为-12%作为证明JP相对于UT非劣效性所需的阈值。
对于完成研究的99名患者,在去除敷料后立即评估疼痛时(VAS评分<30毫米),观察到有利于JP的差异为7.9%(JP为83.8%,UT为75.9%),置信区间(CI)下限为-2.6%,证明了非劣效性(预定义下限为-12%)。关于去除敷料时的疼痛,观察到有利于JP的差异为19.6%(81.6%对62.0%;优势分析p=0.029),CI下限范围为2.4%至38.9%。因此,可以得出优势结论。检测到统计学上显著的时期效应(p=0.003),与第0天(D0)至第2天(D2)的第一个时期相比,在第二个时期第2天(D2)至第4天(D4)经历疼痛的患者更少。还检测到统计学上显著的交叉效应(p=0.047),先应用JP然后应用UT时经历疼痛的患者更少。这表明存在残留效应,从而妨碍了全面的交叉设计分析。JP敷料的贴合性比UT敷料更低(JP为2.0%,UT为6.9%)。
JP在去除敷料时的疼痛方面证明了非劣效性。在这一标准上的优势不显著,但我们发现敷料与伤口床的贴合性更少见。
