The effect of an autologous cellular gel-matrix integrated implant system on wound healing

Table 1 Treatment outcome evaluation

Variable	Units of measure
Graft take	Percentage
Infection	Yes/No
Scar color:	1 = hiperpigmentated 2 = non pigmented 3 = red 4 = almost normal 5 = normal
Scar thickness	1 = queloid 2 = hypertrophic 3 = almost normal 4 = normal
Scar retraction	1 = very retracted 2 = mild retraction 3 = no retraction

The blind referees utilized the above scale to evaluate the scar quality on the six wounds model of preclinical assay. The graft take percentage is the area of the wound that healed. When examining the presence of infection a yes was quantified as a 0, and a no was a 1. This scale gave an overall index for each wound on each rabbit.
