About this study

Official title: Preliminary Evaluation of the Safety and Effectiveness of the Bionic Nerve Scaffold With Longitudinally Oriented Microchannels in Clinical Application

The objective of the study is to preliminarily evaluate the clinical safety and effectiveness of the bionic nerve scaffold with longitudinally oriented microchannels. 10 patients with peripheral sensory nerve defects will be involved and divided into 2 groups: the experimental group is treated with the nerve scaffold, and the control group without that. Then follow the cases up and draw conclusion according to the results of observation and examination.

Read the detailed description

The objective of the study is to preliminarily evaluate the clinical safety and effectiveness of the bionic nerve scaffold with longitudinally oriented microchannels developed in the Department of Orthopaedics in Xijing hospital in repairing the peripheral nerve defect. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 10 patients with peripheral sensory nerve defects of 1 to 3 cm in size will be involved. Divided them into 2 groups. The experimental group of 5 cases will be treated with the nerve scaffold, and the control group without that. Then follow the cases up at about 2 weeks, 3 months and 6 months after surgery. Observe the condition of the healing of the local wound and the whole body of the 10 patients. Examine the blood routine and biochemical indexes of the experimental group. Sensory recovery of injured nerves will be tested at about 3 months and 6 months after surgery. Record the results in the case report forms. Analyze the data statistically and draw conclusion.

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?

Contact Jing h Huang, MD (13572066464, huangjh@fmmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Observing the condition of the healing of local wound with the naked eye at 2 weeks after operation,including redness, exudation and ulceration. (time frame: 2 weeks after operation). The study lists 50 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.
