Trial summary

Acute cervical femoral neck fracture patients randomized to either cemented or non-cemented stem. The investigators used gait analysis to evaluate if patients operated with a cemented stem showed more favourable hip kinematics and kinetics when compared with a group of patients operated with a non-cemented stem.

About this study

Official title: No Difference in Gait Pattern Between a Cemented and Non-cemented Femur Stem. 45 Prospective Randomized Total Hip Arthroplasty Patients After Acute Cervical Femur Fracture Evaluated After 2 Years

Acute cervical femoral neck fracture patients randomized to either cemented or non-cemented stem. The investigators used gait analysis to evaluate if patients operated with a cemented stem showed more favourable hip kinematics and kinetics when compared with a group of patients operated with a non-cemented stem.

Read the detailed description

45 patients randomized to receive either a cemented or a non-cemented stem were studied . 2 years after the operation gait analysis was performed with a 16-camera motion capture system together with 2 force-plates. Hip kinematics and kinetics were analysed and 70 subjects served as controls.

What is being measured

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

  1. Gait Analysis with focus on hip kinematics 2 year after total hip arthroplasty

    Optical tracking system focusing on reflective markers according a model used in gait analysis in order to record degrees of hip angels in 3 planes

    Measured: 2 year postop

  2. Gait Analysis with focus on hip kinetics 2 year after total hip arthroplasty

    Optical tracking system focusing on reflective markers according a model used in gait analysis together with force plates record hip moments (Nm/kg) in 3 planes

    Measured: 2 year postop

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Gait analysis in people with Gait Analysis and Hip Fractures, run by Göteborg University at 1 site in Sweden.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 10 Mar 2021. 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 Sweden. 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?

Gait Analysis with focus on hip kinematics 2 year after total hip arthroplasty (time frame: 2 year postop). 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 NCT04791605, 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 10 Mar 2021.
