About this study

Purpose: Study on the method of lateral nursing and surgical operating tables optimization in the calcaneal surgery.

Method:Design combined surgical operating tables grouped according to the time of clinical application.58 patients with lateral calcaneus surgeries are divided into the control group of 29 patients and the experimental group with 29 patients. The traditional lateral method and calcaneus lateral surgery platforms are separately applied to compare the sliding of the affected limb during a surgery, the stability of the position, the difference of the surgical instruments fall and the satisfaction of the medical staff.Moreover,30 healthy volunteers are selected to experience the comfort level of the two placement methods.

What participants receive

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

  • different types of surgery platformsProcedure or surgery

    58 patients with lateral calcaneus surgeries are divided into the control group of 29 patients and the experimental group with 29 patients. The traditional lateral method and calcaneus lateral surgery platforms are separately applied in the groups.

Study groups in NCT04070274
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
New surgery platform for calcaneal surgeryExperimentalThe lateral position surgical platform for calcaneus surgery is designed with a bottom board, mats in front and at back of calf and thigh, and two sizes of cover plates, using "tunnel" principle according to physiological curve of lower limbs.
Receives: Procedure: different types of surgery platforms
Traditional lateral platformExperimentalThe traditional lateral position makes the surgery platform "bread-shaped arch" surface by using medical mats and putting lower limbs superimpose on each other
Receives: Procedure: different types of surgery platforms

What is being measured

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

  1. The sliding frequency of the affected limb during a surgery with two methods

    More or fewer times

    Measured: Intraoperative

  2. The time patients'surgical position can last for in a surgery.

    Necessary position stability is significant.For intraoperative fluoroscopy,surgeons need to keep the injured feet a fixing steady position with the help of different platforms.So,time the steady position can last for is recorded by the investigator separately.

    Measured: Intraoperative

  3. The frequency of the surgical instruments fall with different methods

    More or fewer times

    Measured: Intraoperative

  4. The whole satisfaction level of the patients and medical staffs

    Patients and medical staffs are asked for feelings about the utilization of the new surgical platform.Mark 0 is extreme poor.Mark 10 is very perfect,and the numbers between them are comments of varying degrees.

    Measured: From the beginning of operation till 1 days postoperative

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Extra possible adverse effects due to the new surgical platform

    Check adverse effects on the basis of influences on respiratory or circulatory systems and damages on patients' nerves or skin.

    Measured: From the beginning of operation till 24 hours postoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing different types of surgery platforms in people with Calcaneus Fracture, run by Yangzhou 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 3 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 30 Aug 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. 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?

The sliding frequency of the affected limb during a surgery with two methods (time frame: Intraoperative). The study lists 4 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 30 Aug 2019.
