About this study

Official title: Single Versus Double Hamstring Harvest for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction. Clinical, Laboratory, Radiographic and Patient-reported Outcomes

The aim of the study is to examine the influence of number of the harvested hamstring tendons on subjective and objective outcomes of primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing single-bundle, single-hamstring ACL reconstruction and single-bundle, double-hamstring ACL reconstruction in people with Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury, run by Rafał Kamiński at 1 site in Poland.

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 2 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 21 Feb 2022. 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 Poland. 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?

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?

Knee stability (KT1000 assessment), pivot shift at 2,4 and 5yrs time-points (time frame: up to 5yrs). 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 NCT03626883, 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 21 Feb 2022.
