Effects of Topical Herbal Salve on Cutaneous Oxygenation and Peripheral Blood Flow
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Original Healing Salve (OHS) and OHS base only for Skin Oxygenation and Peripheral Perfusion. Completed, enrolled 16 participants.
Detailed Summary
Delayed wound healing leads to increased risk for infection, and thus increased risk for morbidity and mortality. Skin oxygen delivery and peripheral blood flow predict wound healing. The investigators will conduct a double-masked, placebo-controlled cross-over clinical pilot trial in order to evaluate the effects of a topical, homeopathic/herbal salve (Original Healing Salve, Puremedy, Inc.) on skin oxygenation and peripheral blood flow.
