About this study

The aim of the study is to measure and model interface pressure applied on the lower leg of patients at risk of veinous thrombosis, by different bandage combinations, composed of Biflex 16 (Thuasne) and/or Rosidal K (Lohmann \& Rauscher). The patient specific model should better predict the interface pressure distribution than Laplace's Law.

Read the detailed description

The measurement of the patients' legs shapes will be performed thanks to an optical scanner. The patients' posterior part of the calf will be submitted to a localized compression test, in order to characterize the soft tissue mechanical properties of both legs.

Pressure measurements, applied by the different bandages, will be taken at the height of measurement points B1 and C on the lateral and medial sides of the leg in supine, sitting and standing positions, on both legs.

2 single bandages (Biflex 16 (Thuasne) and Rosidal K (Lohmann \& Rauscher)) and their different combinations will be applied on the patient's legs.

The order of bandage application for each patient is randomized, but is the same for both legs. The order of the leg (right or left) on which the bandages are applied is randomized.

What participants receive

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

  • Compression bandages application and interface pressure measurementsOther

    Bandages, which are applied in a spiral pattern on the leg, are composed of Biflex 16 (Thuasne) and/or Rosidal K (Lohmann \& Rauscher).

What is being measured

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

  1. Consistency between interface pressure [mmHg] given by the patient-specific simulation and the experimental pressure measurements for different positions (supine, sitting, standing) and the different bandage combinations.

    Measured: Through study completion (one year)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Evaluation of the impact of soft tissue mechanical propreties on interface pressure

    Patient's leg soft tissue mechanical properties are characterized for both patient's legs before bandage application. The impact of this parameter on the measured interface pressure will be evaluated.

    Measured: Through study completion (one year)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Compression bandages application and interface pressure measurements in people with Risk of Venous Thrombosis, run by Thuasne 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 8 inclusion and 8 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 29 Dec 2016. 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?

Consistency between interface pressure [mmHg] given by the patient-specific simulation and the experimental pressure measurements for different positions (supine, sitting, standing) and the different bandage combinations. (time frame: Through study completion (one year)). 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 NCT02803398, 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 29 Dec 2016.
