About this study

Official title: Direct Anterior Approach of the Hip and Variations in Wound Complications Using Different Closure Techniques

This study aims to analyze the difference in rates of wound complications using two different closure techniques in Direct anterior approach for primary total hip replacement.

Read the detailed description

The use of the direct anterior approach (DAA) for primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been increasingly popular but there has been a reported increased risk of wound complications compared with a posterior approach. Wound complications can lead to increased length of stay, reoperation procedures (i.e., irrigation and debridement), patient dissatisfaction, extra visits, readmissions, increased risk of periprosthetic joint infection and overall increased costs.

Being tested
wound closure subcuticular running stitch using 3-0 monocryl suture without skin adhesive, wound closure subcuticular running stitch using 3-0 monocryl suture with two layers of skin adhesive

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing wound closure subcuticular running stitch using 3-0 monocryl suture without skin adhesive and wound closure subcuticular running stitch using 3-0 monocryl suture with two layers of skin adhesive in people with Total Hip Replacement and Wound Complication, run by Rothman Institute Orthopaedics at 1 site in United States.

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 5 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 23 Aug 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 United States. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Wound complications (time frame: 90 days). 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?
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 23 Aug 2023.
