About this study

Official title: The Effect Of Prp (Platelet-Rıch-Plasma) Application On Wound Healing In The Treatment Of Pilonidal Sinus Disease Using Unroofing And Curettage Technique

Our study was planned as a prospective controlled randomized study. The study was started after the ethics committee approval received from Dışkapı Yıldırım Beyazıt Training and Research Hospital. (23.08.2021 118/01). Two groups of patients were planned in parallel. In the treatment of pilonidal sinus disease, in patients operated on with the fistulotomy and curettage technique, one group was followed up with classical dressing, while the other group was followed up with PRP (platelet-rich-plasma) and classical dressing. Wound infection, hematoma, length of hospital stay, recurrence, pain in the first postoperative week, and time to complete epithelialization of the wound (in days) were evaluated between the two groups.

Our study was planned as a prospective controlled randomized study. The study was started after the ethics committee approval received from Dışkapı Yıldırım Beyazıt Training and Research Hospital. (23.08.2021 118/01). Two groups of patients were planned in parallel. In the treatment of pilonidal sinus disease, in patients operated on with the fistulotomy and curettage technique, one group was followed up with classical dressing, while the other group was followed up with PRP (platelet-rich-plasma) and classical dressing. Wound infection, hematoma, length of hospital stay, recurrence, pain in the first postoperative week, and time to complete epithelialization of the wound (in days) were evaluated between the two groups.

A total of 140 patients, male and female, diagnosed with pilonidal sinus disease in our hospital between November 2021 and November 2022 were included in the study. Patients with acute pilonidal sinus abscess were excluded from the study, but chronic PS(pilonidal sinus) patients who had previously undergone abscess drainage were included in the study.

Patients under 18 years of age, relapsed patients, anemic patients (Hg < 10 mg/dl), thrombocytopenic patients (Plt˂10⁶/ml), patients with a history of radiotherapy-chemotherapy, patients with diabetes and patients using steroids were excluded from the study.

Randomization was performed using the PASS computer program, and according to this randomization, fistulotomy and curettage technique (n=70) was applied to one group and fistulotomy and curettage + PRP (n=70) was applied to the other group.

Demographic information, family history, smoking, presence of abscess drainage, post-drainage antibiotic use, comorbidities, BMI, symptom duration, phenol application, laser epilation, number of sinus pits, presence of secondary orifice, basal PLT(platelet) count, size of the defect after sinus excision, wound infection, hematoma, length of hospital stay, presence of recurrence, pain in the first postoperative week, and time to complete epithelialization were evaluated.

What participants receive

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

  • Platelet rich plasmaOther

    After application of platelet rich plasma after surgery, the patients have examined for infection, hematoma, pain, recurrence and the time of epithelialization of the wound.

Study groups in NCT06206330
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Platelet rich plasma groupActive comparatorIn this group we applied Platelet rich plasma after the surgery. The surgery was fistulotomy and curettage.
Receives: Other: Platelet rich plasma
Control groupNo interventionIn this group, we did the surgery as fistulotomy and curettage but we did not apply a Platelet rich plasma.

What is being measured

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

  1. Platelet rich plasma accelerate the epithelialization of the wound after pilonidal sinus surgery

    After the application of PRP the patients examined at the postoperative 2-4-6-10-15-20-25-30-35-40-45-50-55 days for the wound closure. The day of total epithelialization was noted.

    Measured: up to two months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. infection

    presence of infection after surgery.

    Measured: up to two months

  2. hematoma

    presence of hematoma after surgery.

    Measured: up to two months

  3. Pain intensity

    Pain intensity of patients measured by Visual analogue scale (VAS) score. 0 represents "no pain" and 10 "pain as bad as it could possibly be"

    Measured: up tp two months

  4. recurrence

    Recurrence of the pilonidal disease of the patient is presence of pits in the previous surgical area and also presence a tender mass or sinus draining mucoid, purulent, and/or bloody fluid

    Measured: up to two months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Platelet rich plasma in people with Pilonidal Disease and Pilonidal Sinus, run by İsmail Oskay Kaya at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 8 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 16 Jan 2024. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Platelet rich plasma accelerate the epithelialization of the wound after pilonidal sinus surgery (time frame: up to two months). 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 16 Jan 2024.
