The Management of Necrotizing Soft Tissue Infection Wounds With Cytal® Wound Matrix and MicroMatrix®

This is a prospective, pilot, parallel group, randomized controlled trial with 1:1 allocation. This will be a single center study coordinated at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation (CCF) Main Campus in Cleveland, Ohio. Data will be collected in a secure manner using REDCap housed at CCF. The study will consist of 2 arms: treatment with Cytal® Wound Matrix 2-Layer and MicroMatrix® (Integra LifeSciences, Plainsboro Township, NJ, U.S.A.) versus standard of care dressings. Wound debridement procedures will be performed by surgical staff at CCF. A co-investigator trained in the application of Cytal® Wound Matrix and MicroMatrix® will apply these treatments as outlined in section 6.1.2 Administration. This study will be conducted with IRB approval and written informed consent of each participant enrolled. The trial will be registered at ClinicalTrials.gov before the first participant is enrolled.
