About this study

Official title: The Effects of Platelet-Rich Plasma and Activated Collagen on Wound Healing in Primary Total Joint Arthroplasty

3 cohorts of total joint patient of 30 members each were randomized to receive PRP or Activated Collegen or no additive were studied for status of the wound at 6 weeks and recorded all complications, infections and reoperations. The three groups were than compared for statistical analysis

Read the detailed description

Background: Wound healing remains a concern in primary total joint arthroplasty given the risk of deep infections arising from hematomas, wound separations, and superficial infections. If wound additives can prevent these early complications, their universal application would be cost effective. This study examined whether two wound additives, Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and CellerateRX® (activated collagen), would improve postoperative wound healing and reduce complications in primary total joint arthroplasty.

Methods: A prospective, randomized, controlled study using three cohorts with 30 patients each (Group 1: PRP, Group 2: activated collagen, Group 3: control) were examined postoperatively at two and six weeks, at which time the following data were recorded: six wound measurements, total postoperative blood loss, complications of superficial infections, and reoperations.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Platelet Rich Plasma and Cellerate in people with Arthroplasty, Replacement, run by Salt Lake Orthopedic Clinic.

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 18 May 2017. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Wound Status (time frame: 6 weeks post operative). 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 May 2017.
