Medical device repairing emollient creams (MDRECs) are suitable for treating CHD-associated skin lesions, unlike most cosmetic emollient products that can only be used on healthy skin.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine the tolerability and benefit of a MDREC, Dexyane MeD , in adults with CHD.
