About this study

Official title: Comparison of Functional Recovery After Pertrochanter Fracture Treated With Either Total Hip Replacement or Centromedullary Nailing

This is a single-centre, comparative, prospective randomised trial. It will include 70 patients over a period of 2 years randomized into two groups of 35 patients: one group of patients treated with osteosynthesis (plate, nail or screw) and the second group treated with total hip replacement.

The Harris and PMA functional scores will be assessed at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year.

The time to recovery of weight-bearing, the subjective satisfaction score, the EQ5D quality of life questionnaire, the VAS score for pain at rest and when walking, the Parker score, the rate of complications and deaths will also be measured. Operating time, blood loss and scar size will also be evaluated.

Osteosynthesis, Total hip replacement

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Osteosynthesis and Total hip replacement in people with Pertrochanter Fracture, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Dijon at 1 site in France.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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 4 Sep 2019. 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 France. 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?

Harris Score (time frame: At 6 months after surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 4 Sep 2019.
