Trial summary

The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical (range of motion, weight bearing, quality of life) and radiographic outcome (boney consolidation) between open reduction and internal fixation using locking compression plates with revision prosthesis using a non-cemented long femoral stem in a group of patients… Read more about this study

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical Outcome (Range of Motion of the hip)

    Range of Motion of the hip

    Measured: follow up of at least 1 year

  2. Radiographic Outcome (boney consolidation of the fracture)

    boney consolidation of the fracture after 3 month, 6 month and at least 1 year after the operation

    Measured: follow up of at least 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Patient's Mobility (assessed by the Parker's Mobility Score)

    Patient's Mobility assessed by the Parker's Mobility Score

    Measured: follow up of at least 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Periprosthetic Fractures, run by Medical University of Vienna.

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 4 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 18 Mar 2015. 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?

Clinical Outcome (Range of Motion of the hip) (time frame: follow up of at least 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 18 Mar 2015.
