Brief Summary
The objective of the study was to investigate the efficacy of Bepanthen® wound healing ointment compared to placebo in a superficial abrasive wound model. The primary objective was the re-epithelization at Day 5. The secondary objectives were re-epithelization at Days 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 15, assessment of cosmetic outcome/acceptance at Day 15 (investigator only) and at Day 36 (investigator and subject), and documentation and analysis of safety parameters.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Wound healing effect (=re-epithelization) at Day 5 of the test product and the placebo
Wound healing effect (=re-epithelization) was determined on the following basis: No healing 0% Re-epithelization \>0 up to 25% Re-epithelization \>25 up to 50% Re-epithelization \>50 up to 75% Re-epithelization \>75 but not complete Complete closure of surface 100%
At Day 5
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Subjective assessment of cosmetic outcome
At Days 15 and 36
Number of participants with adverse events
Approximately 5 weeks per subject
Wound healing at Days 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 15 after wound induction
At Days 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 15
Study Arms (2)

EXPERIMENTALA squeeze of ointment, approximately 0.5 cm in length corresponding to an amount of about 0.3 g of ointment, which is equal to 15 mg dexpanthenol , twice daily (once in the morning and once in the evening) over a period of 14 days was applied topically under occluded conditions
Placebo
PLACEBO COMPARATORSubjects received applications of placebo corresponding to verum
Interventions
