Trial summary

This is a clinical, longitudinal, prospective and randomised study in which the subject will be assessed by stabilometric and baropodometric techniques on two occasions (before being subjected to the scaphoid tug manipulation for the experimental group or placebo technique in the case of the control group).

About this study

Official title: Stabilometric and Baropodometric Evaluation of Osteopathic Scaphoid Tug Manipulation

This is a clinical, longitudinal, prospective and randomised study in which the subject will be assessed by stabilometric and baropodometric techniques on two occasions (before being subjected to the scaphoid tug manipulation for the experimental group or placebo technique in the case of the control group).

Being tested
Experimental: Osteopathic manipulation TUG for scaphoid bone, Sham group: Sham osteopathic manipulation TUG for scaphoid bone

What participants receive

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

  • Experimental: Osteopathic manipulation TUG for scaphoid boneProcedure or surgery

    The sequence of execution of the scaphoid TUG technique shall be applied as follows. Patient in the supine position. The inner hand of the intervener makes contact with the pisiform through the hypothenar eminence and ulnar border of the hand over the scaphoid tubercle, the outer hand reinforces the contact. The thumbs are directed to the sole of the patient's foot. The parameters are sought by bringing the sole of the foot into eversion, thus bringing the scaphoid into internal rotation (the direction of correction). In order to reduce the slack, the operator drops his body weight backwards while increasing the internal rotation parameter of the scaphoid. The manipulation is performed by associating a rapid traction movement with an increase of the correction parameter towards the internal rotation of the scaphoid.

  • Sham group: Sham osteopathic manipulation TUG for scaphoid boneProcedure or surgery

    The intervention will be performed in the same way as the intervention group, without actually performing the TUG manipulation on the scaphoid bone, only placing it in tension.

What is being measured

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

  1. stabilometric measurements: oscillation about the X-axis

    (mm)

    Measured: five minutes post-intervention

  2. stabilometric measurements: oscillation about the Y-axis

    (mm)

    Measured: five minutes post-intervention

  3. stabilometric measurements: area of the ellipse

    (cm2)

    Measured: five minutes post-intervention

  4. static baropodometric measurements: scan Foot bearing area

    (cm2)

    Measured: five minutes post-intervention

  5. static baropodometric measurements: scan percentage of body load supported by each foot

    Measured: five minutes post-intervention

  6. static baropodometric measurements: scan point of maximum plantar pressure

    (kg/cm2)

    Measured: five minutes post-intervention

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Experimental: Osteopathic manipulation TUG for scaphoid bone in people with Manipulation and Osteopathic, run by Cardenal Herrera University at 1 site in Spain.

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 12 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 Feb 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 Spain. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

stabilometric measurements: oscillation about the X-axis (time frame: five minutes post-intervention). The study lists 6 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 NCT05583760, which also lists 5 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 8 Feb 2023.
