What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • septocutaneous perforator flapOther

    Also called fasciocutaneous flaps, perforator flap

    Perforator flaps can be based on septocutaneous or musculocutaneous perforators. If septocutaneous perforators are present, the harvest of these flaps is more straight forward and the dissection of the pedicle is easy.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Confirmation of the anatomical data in the clinical trial

    Since the purpose of this study was to confirm our anatomical data in a clinical trial, the location, the differentiation and the diameter of the septocutaneous perforators has been measured and recorded during flap elevation.

    Measured: January 2008 till may 2010

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing septocutaneous perforator flap in people with Soft Tissue Defect, run by Medical University of Graz at 1 site in Austria.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jun 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Austria. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Confirmation of the anatomical data in the clinical trial (time frame: January 2008 till may 2010). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01136044, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Jun 2010; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
