Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

antiseptic properties

General outcome: Pain will be assessed by the VAS scale. Score above 3 will be considered an abnormal value. Fever ( in C0) above 37.5 an abnormal value. Pulse rate elevated from the baseline patient by 15% will be an abnormal value. Systolic Blood pressure elevated from the baseline of the patient by 15% will be an abnormal value. Number of breathing which will be elevated from the baseline of the patient by 15% will be an abnormal value. Saturation which will be reduced by 5% from the baseline will be an abnormal value. Local Outcome: redness/ edema /odor/discharge will be evaluated by a score from 0 to 3 (0- no redness/edema/odor/discharge ; 3- severe redness /edema/odor/discharge). Skin eruption will be evaluated as no/yes. The results will be aggregated to arrive at one reported value (e.g., Number of Participants with Abnormal Laboratory Values and/or Adverse Events That Are Related to Treatment)

Time frame: 1 year

Secondary Outcomes

laboratory tests

laboratory tests: Glucose: values that are above 100 mg/dl (not with diabetic patients) Albumin: values that are less than 3.5 g/dl Creatinine: values that are above 1.17 mg% Urea: values that are above 43 mg% Sodium: values that are under 135 mEq/l or above 145 mEq/l Potassium: values that are under 3.5 mEq/l or above 5.1 mEq/l White blood count: values that are above 10.80 k/ul C- reactive protein: values that are above 0.5 mg/dl The results will be aggregated to arrive at one reported value (e.g., Number of Participants with Abnormal Laboratory Values and/or Adverse Events That Are Related to Treatment)

Time frame: 1 year
