About this study

Clavicular fracture, constitutes 2.6% e 5% of all adult fractures, most are located in the midshaft clavicle with different degrees of displacement. Conservative methods are commonly used for midshaft clavicular fractures treatment, but with various unsatisfactory complications such as nonunion, malunion and shoulders asymmetry. The rate of malunion after conservative treatment for the midshaft clavicular fractures reached 15%, and 30% patients were unsatisfied. Recently, early midshaft clavicular fractures could greatly reduce the incidence rate of nonunion and malunion. Open reduction and plate-screw fixation was considered as the gold standard with the advantages of firm fixation and earlier postoperative mobilization, but also with disadvantages of larger incision and more organizations being exposed, presenting with many postoperative complications. Intramedullary fixation treatment for mid-clavicular fractures has been favored due to its strengths including small incision, less periosteal striping, dispersion of stress and simple to operate However, early intra-medullary implants, such as Hagie pins and Kirschner wires, have been gradually replaced due to insufficient stability. In addition, various nails such as elastic stable intramedullar

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Percutaneous intramedullary fixation of displaced midshaft clavicular fractures . in people with Clavicular Fracture, run by Assiut University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 13 Mar 2018. 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?

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?

Union rate (time frame: Six months). 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 13 Mar 2018.
