Trial summary

Diaphyseal femoral fracture in children <6 years old are treated by the skin traction technique. As demonstrated by numerous studies, given the significant potential for bone remodeling in young children, remodeling (excluding rotational disorder) allows anatomical correction.

About this study

Diaphyseal femoral fracture in children <6 years old are treated by the skin traction technique. As demonstrated by numerous studies, given the significant potential for bone remodeling in young children, remodeling (excluding rotational disorder) allows anatomical correction. The aim of this study is to confirm, via EOS imaging, the absence of residual deformities 3 years after the end of treatment in children treated in Amiens hospital department.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of EOS, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens at 1 site in France.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Feb 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 France. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact celine Klein, Pr ((33)322087571, klein.celine@chu-picardie.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

absence of lower limb overgrowth (time frame: 3 years). 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 7 Feb 2024.
