89 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Drawing from prior school-based skin cancer prevention programs, we have adapted intervention materials to target rural high schoolers. Program components (including in-class education) will be co-implemented by the research team and participating school staff, with a focus on sustainability beyond the immediate study period. Interviews and surveys following initial implementation will evaluate both the effectiveness of the program.
The purpose of this study is to help prevent skin cancer by improving the use of sun protective behaviors among youths living in rural communities in Utah and West Virginia.
The purpose of this study is to determine the 80-Minute Water Resistant SPF of three sunscreen products (ChapStick Active Performance \[CAP\] UnScented, CAP Herbal Mint Flavour and CAP Mountain Berry Flavour) using the methodology described in the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Final Rule (2011).
The purpose of this study is to determine the static SPF of three sunscreen products (ChapStick Active Performance \[CAP\] UnScented, CAP Herbal Mint and CAP Mountain Berry) using the methodology described in the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Final Rule (2011).
The purpose of this study is to determine the static SPF of three sunscreen products (ChapStick Lip Moisturizer \[CLM\] Original, CLM Mint Flavour and CLM Black Cherry Flavour) using the methodology described in the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Final Rule (2011).
The purpose of this study is to determine the potential influence of sun protection on the aesthetic outcome of post-surgical scars following the reconstruction of Mohs micrographic surgery defects via linear repair. This study will be performed as a randomized split-wound study. Half of the wound will be treated with zinc containing sunscreen and the other half of the wound would not be treated. Three-months post-surgery, the scar will be evaluated via the patient observer scar assessment scale (POSAS), a validated scar instrument, as well as a colorimeter to measure the amount of vascularity, and hyperpigmentation between the treated and the non-treated area compared to the 'surrounding skin' defined as skin in the proximity but not adjacent to the wound. Any adverse events will also be recorded.
The aim of this study is to determine the SPF of two test materials ChapStick Moisturizer, Classic Flavor and ChapStick Moisturizer, Strawberry Flavor using the methodology described in the International Standard Test Method. This static methodology also meets the requirements of the Australia/New Zealand standard.
The goal of this pilot study is to develop and test a couple-based intervention to increase sun protection practices. First, the investigators will develop the intervention website, Sun Safe Partners online. Next, the investigators will gather feedback and preferences for content in a small sample of couples who do not regularly engage in sun protection practices. The investigators will also gather preliminary information regarding the impact of the couple-based intervention.
The goal is to prevent ultraviolet light (UV) overexposure by providing consumers with relevant, easy-to-access, specifically actionable information. This research proposal will develop a UV protection system consisting of an automated real-time counseling framework and a personal dosimeter that overcomes barriers to consumer adoption. These new, wearable sensors take the form of small (\< 1 cm), thin (\<0.1 mm), lightweight (\<0.1 g), battery-free "stickers" that are fundamentally differentiated from other wearable electronics in their modes of use, cost structures and accuracy.
Comprehensive approaches that combine sun protection policy and education for outdoor workers can reduce their risk for skin cancer by reducing their exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation on the job. To effectively disseminate the investigators' evidence-based sun protection policy and education intervention, Sun Safe Workplaces, a balance of effectiveness and cost of scale-up methods is required. The investigators propose to translate the intervention using a technology-based delivery method and compare the cost effectiveness of the original intervention and the intervention delivered by technology in a study that models national distribution strategies to public safety and public works sectors.
The proposed study will assess the current sun safety policies and practices in programs for young children and to determine the willingness of stakeholders to incorporate more protective measures. The primary hypothesis is that children in Head Start programs, daycare programs, elementary schools, or summer camps are exposed to significant UV radiation throughout the day, and are not adequately protected with sunscreen, hats, or sun-protective clothing. The secondary hypothesis is that these programs value sun safety as an important health behavior, but probably do not have the funding avilable to make it a priority.
This is a pilot randomized controlled trial of an Internet-based skin cancer prevention intervention as compared to a standard of care control in 80 non-Hispanic white females ages 20-30.
This clinical trial studies how well an interactive tailored website works in promoting sun protection and skin self-check behaviors in patients with stage 0-III melanoma. An internet-based program may help individuals to perform skin self-checks and engage in sun protection behaviors.
