Study start date: May 21, 2010

Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.

This is a randomized, within-patient controlled study to compare the clinical performance of the ReCell Device with that of Split-thickness Meshed Skin Grafts for the treatment of second degree burns. The hypothesis to be supported are: 1) non-inferiority with the primary efficacy endpoint defined as recipient site wound closure at week 4 follow-up visit of the ReCell-treated area as compared to that of the STMSG-treated area, and 2)superiority in the healing of the ReCell donor site as compared to the STMSG donor site at week 1.

Criteria

11 inclusion criteria required to participate
