What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Self-assessment from patients

    The patients fill out questionnaires and score erythema, desquamation, dryness, itching, and cleft palate on both sides of the calves (0 = none, 1 = light, 2 = medium, 3 = severe).

    Time frame: 17 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. The loss of transdermal water

    The percutaneous water loss value of the test site is measured continuously in an open chamber with Tewameter (TM300, Courage and Khazaka, Germany), and the measurement is performed 3 times continuously. The average value is taken after the value is stable.

    Time frame: 0 day, 1 day, 7 days, 14 days, 17 days

  2. Cuticle moisture

    The water content in the stratum corneum of the test site is measured 5 times with Corneometer (CM825, Course and Khazaka, Germany) and the average value is taken.

    Time frame: 0 day, 1 day, 7 days, 14 days, 17 days
