About this study

Official title: Altering Toenail Biomechanic in Managing Ingrown Toenail.Randomized Clinical Trial.

Ingrown toenail is commonly met in clinical practice.treatment may be non-operative and operative treatment.operative trestment depends on lateral wedge resection of the nail. The idea is to change toenail biomechanics by central toenail resection.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to compare between central toenail resection with ordinary lateral wedge resection in managing ingrown toenail. This study was performed on 100 patients divided into 2 groupd each is 50 patients. Group A underwent central resection while group B underwent lateral toenail resection.

What participants receive

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

  • Central toenail resectionProcedure or surgery

    Also called Surgical resection

    Using local aneasthesia, resection of central part of toenail with germinal matrix.

  • Wedge toenail resectionProcedure or surgery

    Also called Surgical resection

    Using local anaesthesia,we remove lateral part of toenail .

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative pain on visual analog score for pain

    All patients are pain free after 5 days postoperative

    Measured: six month

  2. Intraoperative time measured in minutes

    All operations end within 15 minutes.

    Measured: Six month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Recurrence after operation

    Recurrence is followed up by asking the patient to follow up in outpatient clinic after six month and also,by calling the patients in telephone.

    Measured: six month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Central toenail resection and Wedge toenail resection in people with Ingrown Toenail, run by Zagazig University.

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 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

Postoperative pain on visual analog score for pain (time frame: six month). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 6 Nov 2018.
