Clinical Study to Assess a New Barrier Film's Ability to Provide Skin Protection Against Incontinence & Allow Healing

The purpose of this study is to evaluated the product performance of a new skin protectant
formulated to protect damaged and denuded skin even in the presence of exposure to the most
potentially damaging body fluids, such as liquid stool and gastric fluid. The product is
expected to intimately adhere to damaged and denuded skin and provide better protection from
further damage than commonly used products such as moisture barrier pastes, thereby making it
easier for nursing staff to cleanse the skin after incontinence episodes, thus saving time
and also materials.

The denuded sites on buttocks/thighs will be scored for skin loss and degree of redness. Over
the course of time, with the skin protected, it should re-epithelizes. The skin improvement
will be scored and the change in baseline over time monitored.

least 7 days following enrollment in the study?

7. Has the subject, or their legally authorized representative, signed an Institutional

within the 3 weeks preceding the screening visit?

2. Does the subject have a known allergy to acrylates or cyanoacrylates?

3. Does the subject have a Stage III, IV, unstageable, suspected deep tissue injury
pressure ulcer in the area where the skin is affected by incontinence?

4. Does the subject have a preexisting skin disease on the areas affected by

Gluconate wipes on the area where the skin protectant product will be applied?

11. Does the subject have any medical condition that in the opinion of the
investigator should exclude him/her from participating in the study?

12. Has the subject been enrolled in any investigational study where product was
applied to proposed study sites within 30 days of the screening visit?
