  • Children requiring sedation for LDI of donor sites
  • Not following the complete treatment schedule or missing some evaluations during the follow-up period
  • Patient has any condition(s) that seriously compromises the patient's ability to complete this study.
  • Patient has participated in another study utilizing an investigational drug or device within the previous 30 days
