ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new type of bandage that generates hydrogen peroxide, which is known for its ability to help prevent infections and promote healing in wounds. The researchers want to see if these special bandages are safe to use on healthy skin and that they don’t cause any harmful effects.

To be eligible for this trial, participants should be healthy adults aged between 65 and 74, with no skin problems and intact skin on their arms. They'll need to be able to give their consent to join the study. During the trial, participants will wear the e-bandage, and the researchers will monitor their skin to ensure there are no negative reactions. It's important to note that pregnant individuals, children, and anyone with skin diseases or injuries will not be able to participate. Overall, this study will help us understand if this innovative bandage could be a safe option for wound care.
