Detailed Description
Recently, water spray containing a mixture of dissolved hydroxyl radicals, H2, O2, O3, and hydrogen peroxide was instantly generated by tap water and a novel electrolyzed water device (https://www.deposon.com.cn; https://www.deposon.com). In brief, the scientists use the abrasion-resistant, heat-resisting conductive diamond material coating the key part of electrolyzed water device to directly make the tap water into a water spray containing a mixture of dissolved hydroxyl radical, H2, O2, O3, hydrogen peroxide, namely the advanced oxidizing water. Importantly, water spray containing a mixture of dissolved hydroxyl radicals, H2, O2, O3, and hydrogen peroxide does not release gaseous ozone <0.1mg/m3 to the immediate environment that meets the requirement of environmental safety.
This is an open-label, single-arm, and before and after treatment comparison study. This study uses this novel electrolyzed water device and the water spray to treat genital itching. In brief, 14 patients with genital itching, male 7, female 7, average age 52±12 are included. Treatment is to spray the diseased area until half a bottle (200ml) of water is used, 2 times a day, 5 days. The primary outcome measure uses an itching scale made by modifying a pain scale (NPRS) for 5 days.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: The genital itching and one treatment Participants with itching genitalia will receive one treatment with the device and complete the questionnaire. |
Device: The novel electrolyzed water spray
Study staff will use the novel electrolyzed water spray device and spray for approximately 2-4 minutes on the participant's diseased area until half a bottle (20-40ml) of water is used. The patients use electrolyzed water to treat the diseased area, two times a day, for 5 days. The trial consists of 5 study visits (day 1-day 5). The relief genital itching evaluation and adverse event assessments will be performed at each visit. Safety analysis will be assessed based on the reports of adverse events during the study.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- An itching scale made by modifying a pain scale (NPRS) [5 days]
This Score is based on descriptions of the itching that patients rate 0-10 to assess the condition of their genitalia with itching. A higher score means a worse outcome. 0 means "no itching " and 10 means "the most itching".
