About this study

Official title: Effect Of A Locally Delivered Probiotic Sacchraomyces Boulardii As An Adjunct To Scaling And Root Planing In The Management Of Chronic Periodontitis: A Randomized, Split Mouth, Single Blind, Clinico-Microbiological Study

This study was carried out in the Department of Periodontology and source of patient was be from the outpatient section of Tatyasaheb Kore Dental College \& Research Centre, New Pargaon. Study included the 31 patients with chronic periodontitis, with age group between 35-60 years, two interdental suprabony pockets with 5-8mm pocket depth in two different quadrants were chosen as the test site (TS) and control sites (CS). In control sites, only SRP was performed followed by placement of placebo distilled water. In test sites, SRP was followed by placement of Lyophilized saccharomyces boulardii in the pocket. S. boulardii will be delivered subgingivally by by mixing 1gm of sachet containing 250mg of lyophilized yeast with 0.5ml of distilled water this prepared paste was injected in the perio pocket with luer lock syringe and cannula .The subgingival plaque samples were collected at baseline, 4th day, 4 week for detection of p. gingivalis for microbiological analysis and clinical parameters wiere recorded at baseline and at 1 month.

Read the detailed description
  1. AIM: To determine effectiveness of saccharomyces boulardii as an adjuvant to scaling and root planing in the treatment of chronic periodontitis 2. OBJECTIVES:
  2. To evaluate the efficacy of locally delivered saccharomyces boulardii on clinical and microbiological parameters in the treatment of chronic periodontitis.
  3. To compare the result of scaling and root planning alone and scaling and root planing with locally delivered saccharomyces boulardii in patients with chronic periodontitis.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:- A split mouth, single blind, randomized placebo controlled, clinical \& microbiologic study was carried out in 31 patients at the department of Periodontology. Based on power of study i.e 95% and with alpha (α )of 0.05 the sample size finalized was 31. Prior approval for the study was obtained from the Local Ethical Committee. Two interdental suprabony pockets with 5-8mm pocket depth in two different quadrants were chosen as the test site (TS) and control sites (CS).

CONSENT After the study was explained, including the benefits, risks, and alternative treatments, the patients signed an informed consent form indicating their agreement to participate in the study, and each patient was assigned a patient number in ascending order to maintain the masking of evaluators. Eg. First patient was given a number D1, Second D2, and so on.

GROUPS This was a Phase 2 clinical trial with an Interventional model of parallel assignment with two arms. Hence, after screening through inclusion and exclusion criteria in single patient two sites were selected in contralateral quadrants through randomization. 31sites were included in test site and 31 sites were included in control site.

Test Site (TS):- SRP was followed by placement of Lyophilized S boulardii in the pocket. S. boulardii was delivered subgingivally by by mixing 1gm of sachet containing 250mg of lyophilized yeast with 0.5ml of distilled water this prepared paste was injected in the perio pocket with luer lock syring and cannula. Periodontal pack was given in delivered area to maintain the mixture into the pocket and patients were advised not to brush in that area. A stent was prepared and probing pocket depth was measured before and after the treatment. The stent enabled the periodontal probe to reach the same position before and after the treatment, to avoid error or bias during treatment.

Control Site (CS):- Control site received placebo i.e distilled water after scaling and root planning.

What participants receive

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

  • Saccharomyces Boulardii 250 MGDrug

    Also called scaling and root planning

    all the patient first recived scaling and root planning as a prophylactic mesaure later after that patient received intrapocket delivery of Saccharomyces Boulardii mixture.

What is being measured

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

  1. pocket depth reduction

    after subgingival delivery of lyophilized s. boulardi mixture the pocket depth shiuld recived after 1 month

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Saccharomyces Boulardii 250 MG in people with Chronic Periodontitis, run by Tatyasaheb Kore Dental College at 1 site in India.

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 5 inclusion and 6 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 11 May 2018. 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 India. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

pocket depth reduction (time frame: 1 month). 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 11 May 2018.
