What participants receive

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

  • ControlProcedure or surgery

    During the third molar extraction the saline solution will be used in the control group.

  • 0.5% concentration of PVP-IProcedure or surgery

    During the third molar extraction 0.5% concentration of PVP-I solution will be used in the test group.

  • 1 % concentration of PVP-IProcedure or surgery

    During the third molar extraction 1 % concentration of PVP-I solution will be used in the test group.

  • 3 % concentration of PVP-IProcedure or surgery

    During the third molar extraction 3 % concentration of PVP-I solution will be used in the test group.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative Facial Swelling (assessed 3 facial lines (in millimeters) for determination of difference in facial contours before and after surgery)

    For the assessment of facial swelling, three facial lines (in milimeters) were measured with a digital tape on the operated side using following (4) landmarks: the external canthus of the eye, the gonion angle, the lower border of the tragus, soft pogonion and the mouth commissure

    Facial Lines between:

    1. the external canthus of the eye- the gonion angle
    2. the lower border of the tragus-the mouth commissure
    3. the lower border of the tragus- soft pogonion

    Measured: Preoperative (on the day of surgery)- postoperative 2nd day-postoperative 7th day

  2. Postoperative Trismus (difference in interincisal distance at the maximal mouth opening (in millimeters) before and after surgery)

    The degree of trismus was assessed by measuring the distance between upper and lower incisal borders of the central incisors with a digital caliper.

    Measured: Preoperative (on the day of surgery)- postoperative 2nd day-postoperative 7th day.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing 0.5% concentration of PVP-I, 1 % concentration of PVP-I and 3 % concentration of PVP-I in people with Impacted Third Molar Tooth, run by Cansu Gül Koca.

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 7 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 28 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Postoperative Facial Swelling (assessed 3 facial lines (in millimeters) for determination of difference in facial contours before and after surgery) (time frame: Preoperative (on the day of surgery)- postoperative 2nd day-postoperative 7th day). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03894722, 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 28 Mar 2019.
