Comparison of Gray-scale Inverted Rib Series With Conventional Ones in Rib Fracture Detection by Emergency Physicians and Medical Students
An observational study of Rib Fracture, run by Hanyang University.
Trial summary
There were many studies which examined the availability of inverted gray-scale chest X-ray for increasing the detection of lung nodules. In emergency medicine, rib fracture is an important part for patient's disposition, so investigators designed this study to evaluate the availability of inverted gray-scale chest… Read more about this study

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.

In emergency medicine, rib fracture is an important part for patient's disposition, so investigators designed this study to evaluate the availability of inverted gray-scale chest X-ray for the detection of rib fracture.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Rib Fracture, run by Hanyang University.
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 1 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 7 Jan 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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?
Sensitivity of detection for rib fracture (time frame: up to 12 weeks). 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 NCT02028611, 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 7 Jan 2014.
