What is being measured

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

  1. postoperative pain

    intensity of pain on modified Visual analogue scale

    Measured: 6 hours

  2. postoperative pain

    intensity of pain on modified Visual analogue scale

    Measured: 12 hours

  3. postoperative pain

    intensity of pain on modified Visual analogue scale

    Measured: 24 hours

  4. postoperative pain

    intensity of pain on modified Visual analogue scale

    Measured: 48 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. number of analgesic tablets taken by patient after endodontic treatment

    number of analgesics taken by patient in 1st 48 hours

    Measured: up to 48 hours postoperatively

  2. Sealer Extrusion laterally and periapically

    presence or absence of sealer extrusion

    Measured: Immediately after obturation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ultrasonic activation of bioceramic sealer in people with Symptomatic Irreversible Pulpitis, run by Cairo University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 6 inclusion and 19 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 8 Nov 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 Egypt. 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?

postoperative pain (time frame: 6 hours). 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 8 Nov 2023.
