Trial summary

Although older children and high dislocations may be more likely to require a femoral shortening osteotomy, the ultimate decision about whether or not to shorten a given femur should depend on the ease of femoral head reduction in that specific patient. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Investigation of the Value of Femoral Shortening Osteotomy During Open Treatment of Developmental Dislocation of the Hip in Waliking Age Group

Although older children and high dislocations may be more likely to require a femoral shortening osteotomy, the ultimate decision about whether or not to shorten a given femur should depend on the ease of femoral head reduction in that specific patient. Adding a femoral shortening procedure increases operating time and blood loss, adds a second incision, and necessitates future hardware removal. In addition, an unnecessary femoral shortening osteotomy could overly decrease the soft tissue tension around the joint, putting the hip at risk for redislocation. This study was designed to explore an algorithm based on strict age and radiographic criteria that identify those without the need of femoral osteotomy.

Read the detailed description

Developmental dislocation of the hip (DDH) is a common disease in children, and its incidence in China is about 9 ‰.There are many different methods in the treatment of DDH. Although older children and high dislocations may be more likely to require a femoral shortening osteotomy, the ultimate decision about whether or not to shorten a given femur should depend on the ease of femoral head reduction in that specific patient. Adding a femoral shortening procedure increases operating time and blood loss, adds a second incision, and necessitates future hardware removal. In addition, an unnecessary femoral shortening osteotomy could overly decrease the soft tissue tension around the joint, putting the hip at risk for redislocation. This study was designed to explore an algorithm based on strict age and radiographic criteria that identify those without the need of femoral osteotomy. From the investigators'clinical experiences and the published papers, younger patients (<24 month of age) and low dislocations (Tonnis level I or II) were more likely to avoid a femoral shortening osteotomy.

What participants receive

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

  • OsteotomyProcedure or surgery

    Femoral osteotomy are applied in the open treatment of Developmental Dislocation of the Hip (DDH).

  • Non-osteotomyProcedure or surgery

    Femoral osteotomy are not applied in the open treatment of Developmental Dislocation of the Hip (DDH).

What is being measured

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

  1. Femur Head Necrosis

    Radiological evaluation was performed using standard anterior-posterior radiographs of the pelvis. The presence and grade of femur head necrosis was evaluated according to the method presented by Bucholz and Odgen.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Redislocation

    Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0.

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Acetabular index

    Standardized radiographs have been traditionally used in the surveillance of hip dysplasia by measuring the acetabular index, which is the angle subtended between the Hilgenreiner line and a line drawn from the triradiate cartilage to the lateral edge of the acetabulum.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Duration of operation

    The time during the operation measured by minute.

    Measured: 1 month

  2. Blood loss

    The blood lost during the operation measured by milliliter.

    Measured: 1 month

  3. Cost

    The cost of hospitalization.

    Measured: 1 month

  4. Hospital stays

    The days stayed in hospital.

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Osteotomy and Non-osteotomy in people with Hip Dislocation and Femur Head Necrosis, run by He Jin Peng.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Dec 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Peng J He, Doctor (+86-15071032254, 619921411@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Femur Head Necrosis (time frame: 2 years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02633904, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 17 Dec 2015.
