About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Effects of Different Fixation Methods on Wound Healing After Deepithelialized Gingival Graft

The aim of this study was to compare of the effects of different fixation methods on deepithelialized gingival graft wound healing. Laser doppler flowmetry method was used to determine for blood perfusion changes. 40 patients were devided into two groups randomly and deepithelialized gingival graft procedure was performed and healings were evaluated by laser doppler flowmetry.

Read the detailed description

This study evaluates the effects of different fixation methods on the early healing period of deepithelialized gingival grafts placed for non-root coverage gingival augmentation by laser Doppler flowmetry Forty patients were assigned to study groups: 1)test : tissue adhesive or 2) control group: suture. Forty patients completed the study. Blood perfusion in the recipient site was measured by laser doppler flowmetry on the day of surgery and at 3 and 7 days after surgery. Quality of life and pain at recipient sites were also investigated.

What participants receive

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

  • deepithelialized gingival graft fixationProcedure or surgery

    one group's deepithelialized gingival graft fixed by sutures and other one's by tissue adhesive.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
fixation by tissue adhesiveExperimentalIn this group, deepithelialized gingival grafts were fixed by tissue adhesive without any suture.
Receives: Procedure: deepithelialized gingival graft fixation
fixation by suturesExperimentalIn this groups, deepithelialized gingival grafts were fixed by 4.0 round vicryl sutures.
Receives: Procedure: deepithelialized gingival graft fixation

What is being measured

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

  1. deepithelialized gingival graft blood perfusion change

    Blood perfusions (units) were measured by laser doppler flowmetry

    Measured: measurements were performed at the day of surgery, 1, 3 and 7 days.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Deepithelialized gingival graft recipient bed pain changes

    In this evaluations, we did not evaluate the total range we used subscale pain evaluation by visual analog scale. visual analog scale consisted of 10 units,in combination with a graphic rating scale.On the visual analog scale,the left and right end of the graphic represented the absence of pain (minimum 0)(score 0) and the most severe pain (maximum 10) (score 10),respectively. Patients were warned to complete the visual analog scale taking into consideration the intensity of their pain in the previous 24 hours on all recall days

    Measured: measurements were performed at 1, 3 and 7 days post surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing deepithelialized gingival graft fixation in people with Wound Heal, run by TC Erciyes University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 9 inclusion and 9 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 Sep 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

deepithelialized gingival graft blood perfusion change (time frame: measurements were performed at the day of surgery, 1, 3 and 7 days.). 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 Sep 2018.
