Trial summary

Chronic Compartment Syndrome (CCS) is a pathology that affects more specifically subjects exposed to repeated movements, particularly in a professional life or sports. The diagnosis is difficult and often delayed. Currently, the reference technique is invasive. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: COmpartment Syndrome vaLidation Of Non Invasive Assessment of Tissue Pressure (COLONIA)

Chronic Compartment Syndrome (CCS) is a pathology that affects more specifically subjects exposed to repeated movements, particularly in a professional life or sports. The diagnosis is difficult and often delayed.

Currently, the reference technique is invasive. It consists of measuring by a intramuscular puncture (IMP) pressure in the offending compartment early after effort (usually between 1 and 5 minutes post-exercise). A value greater than or equal to 30 mmHg in the first 5 minutes is used as a diagnostic criterion for CCS.

Other less invasive techniques (scintigraphy) exist but are subject to certain discordances of interpretation. The advent of new assessment tools, like the MyotonPRO, pave the way for a non-invasive diagnostic approach.

Read the detailed description

Patients referred for suspected chronic compartment syndrome causing will be included.

After signing the consent, the subject will have a clinical and paraclinical examination. Age, sex, height, weight, side of clinical symptomatology will be collected. Medical history current treatments will also be noted. Once the consent is collected, the patient performs, according to the data of the literature and service habits a stress test aimed at triggering the painful symptomatology associated with post-exercise IMP and MyotonPRO measurements as the same time.

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnostic performance of MyotonPRO

    To study the diagnostic performance of tissue stiffness measurement by MyotonPRO at 1 minute post-exercise in patients suspected of anterolateral of leg

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Diagnostic performance of MyotonPRO at 1 minute post-exercise

    To study the diagnostic performance of the MyotonPRO tissue stiffness measurement variation between rest and 1 minute post-exercise.

    Measured: 3 years

  2. Diagnostic performance of MyotonPRO at 5 minute post-exercise

    To study the diagnostic performance of the MyotonPRO tissue stiffness measurement variation between rest and 5 minute post-exercise.

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing MyotonPRO in people with Compartment Syndrome, run by University Hospital, Angers at 1 site in France.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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 7 Apr 2023. 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 France. 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?

Diagnostic performance of MyotonPRO (time frame: 3 years). 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 7 Apr 2023.
