Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 15 to 65 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Clinical and imaging diagnosis of zygomatic arch fracture or zygomatic maxillary complex fracture.
  • Fracture fragments are obviously displaced, which affects the appearance and function of the patient. Simple prying is instable and requires open reduction and internal fixation.
  • No previous surgical treatment.

Who cannot join

  • Accompanied by multiple fractures of mandible, nasal bone and so on.
  • There are traumatic scars in the operation area, which can be accessed through the original wound.
  • History of bone disease and / or wound healing disorders.
  • Mental and intellectual disorders.

About this study

Official title: A Method of Calculating the Shortest Incision for Internal Fixation of Zygomatic Arch Fracture: Sideburns Mini Incision

In this study, a new method was proposed to calculate the length of sideburns mini incision for zygomatic arch fracture. The purpose of this study was to compare the sideburns mini incision calculated by this method with the coronal scalp incision, so as to determine the therapeutic effect and advantages of sideburns mini incision calculated by this method.

Read the detailed description

Eighty patients with zygomatic arch fracture were treated with surgical intervention. Forty patients were treated with sideburns mini incision, and the other forty patients were treated with coronal scalp incision. Data such as incision length, operation time and postoperative complications were recorded. The follow-up periods were 6 months.

What participants receive

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

  • sideburns mini incisionProcedure or surgery

    The investigators present a new method to calculate the shortest incision for zygomatic fracture, and use this method to calculate the sideburns mini incision for the surgical treatment of zygomatic arch fracture.

  • coronal scalp incisionProcedure or surgery

    Coronal scalp incisions were used as control group.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incision length

    Incision length for open reduction and internal fixation of zygomatic arch fractures.

    Measured: during the surgical procedure

  2. Operative duration

    The length of time spent on operation.

    Measured: from the beginning to the end of surgery

  3. Postoperative pain

    Visual Analogue Scale was used to evaluate the burden of postoperative pain. The maximum score is 10, and the minimum score is 0. Higher scores represent more intense pain.

    Measured: 24 hours after surgery

  4. Postoperative stay

    Days of postoperative hospital stay was calculated to evaluate patient recovery.

    Measured: From the end of surgery until discharge, up to 15 days. After evaluation by the same chief knife physician, the patient recovered well postoperatively and could be discharged.

  5. Postoperative adverse effects

    Including bleeding, malocclusion, infection, nerve injury, etc.

    Measured: from the end of surgery to 6 months after surgery

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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?

Incision length (time frame: during the surgical procedure). The study lists 5 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 NCT05381337, which also lists 12 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.
