PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 7 days

Population: 20/20 subjects completed maximum study participation of 7 days. Two subjects dressings detached very early on so returned for their final evaluation on the second day. The final subject status was recorded as 'other' for these two subjects. Many dressings detached when volunteers were away from the clinic and prior to returning for the assessments.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 7 days

Safety will be determined by the nature and frequency of Adverse Events. Condition of the skin under and around the dressings along with the incidence of skin irritation will be assessed. The incidence and nature of all adverse events will be recorded. Condition of the skin was evaluated by the Skin Irritation Scale. The possible responses are doubtful reaction, weak positive reaction, strong positive reaction, extreme positive reaction, irritant reaction, and negative reaction.
