Trial summary

Minimally invasive surgery avoids the tissue damage and impairment of physiological function caused by open surgery because of its precise location techniques and can effectively promote the early recovery of wrist function. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Minimally Invasive Surgical Fixation for Unstable Fractures of the Distal End Radius in Adults

Minimally invasive surgery avoids the tissue damage and impairment of physiological function caused by open surgery because of its precise location techniques and can effectively promote the early recovery of wrist function. Under conditions of no cutting of fracture fragments, no blood supply compromise in the fracture fragments

Read the detailed description

Distal radial fracture is common fracture and internal fixation needed in many cases so we use minimally invasive fixation in this study to minimize open surgery compilations

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Minimal invasive surgical fixation of distal radius Fractures in people with Distal Radius Fracture, run by Assiut 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 3 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Aug 2024. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ab Ma Ghozaly (01555167657, Abdalraoofmahmoud4@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Fracture healing (time frame: 6 minths). 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 NCT05175118, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 5 Aug 2024.
