Randomized Controlled Trial to Investigate Clinical Outcomes and Associated Costs When PermeaDerm is Used as Temporary Dressing for Surgical Wounds
Recruiting
The goal of this study is to compare the cost and clinical outcomes for two temporary dressings (Allograft and PermeaDerm) used in patients that need a skin graft to heal their wound. The researchers will review cost and other treatment results including how well both temporary dressings attach to the skin, how prepared the wound bed is to receive a skin graft, how long it takes for the skin to be ready to receive a skin graft, how well the skin graft takes and any complications. Patients will f... Read More

Effect of Adult Spinal Deformity Surgery on Functional Reach
Recruiting
Adult spinal deformity (ASD) is a common spinal condition that often impacts an individual's ability to stand and maintain an upright posture. Poor balance often limits an individual's ability to perform basic activities of daily life (ADL) and can lead to disability. Current considerations of correcting ASD to improve balance focus on the amount of sway that one exhibits during normal standing. However, current tests do not provide insight into the limits of balance during normal ADL. The goal... Read More
