To investigate the safety of a new moisturized wipe we performed a double blind study evaluating several clinical and laboratory parameters. 55 babies, wearing diapers, (56% males, 44% females) were divided in two groups, both randomly stratified for age and sex. Age ranged from 1 month to 2 years. First group has been cleaned with a new baby wipe during the test phases and the second group with a commercially available baby wipe. Three visits have been made. During the calibration phase (between visit 1 and 2) the babies were cleaned with water and a uniform soap. During the test phase (between visit 2 and 3) the two baby wipes were exclusively used. At the beginning and at the end of the test phase a questionnaire for parents, a clinical evaluation of a dermatologist, skin pH measurement and skin microbiology were carried out. The use of the new baby wipe is safe and does not alter skin parameters compared to control product.

Abstract

To investigate the safety of a new moisturized wipe we performed a double blind study evaluating several clinical and laboratory parameters. 55 babies, wearing diapers, (56% males, 44% females) were divided in two groups, both randomly stratified for age and sex. Age ranged from 1 month to 2 years. First group has been cleaned with a new baby wipe during the test phases and the second group with a commercially available baby wipe. Three visits have been made. During the calibration phase (between visit 1 and 2) the babies were cleaned with water and a uniform soap. During the test phase (between visit 2 and 3) the two baby wipes were exclusively used. At the beginning and at the end of the test phase a questionnaire for parents, a clinical evaluation of a dermatologist, skin pH measurement and skin microbiology were carried out. The use of the new baby wipe is safe and does not alter skin parameters compared to control product.
