Study population: The study included patients presenting to hospital with diagnosis of tibial plateau fracture, regardless of age, sex, associated injuries and comorbidities. The diagnosis of tibial plateau fracture was confirmed after assessment of X-ray or Computed Tomography (CT) scan by an orthopedic surgeon. The study excluded patients who presented with a tibia fracture other than a tibial plateau fracture, including proximal tibia fractures and isolated tibial spine fractures. Those with missing records (data or imaging) were excluded from the study.

About this study
A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted following approval from the institutional review board. Patients who presented to our center over a four-year period, from July 1 2015 to June 30 2019, were included in the study. Participants were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria following review of the medical records. A standardized proforma was used to collect the data and stored in Microsoft Excel. Data processing and analysis was done in Statistical Packages for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 23.0. All categorical data were presented as percentages along with absolute numbers, while all continuous numerical data were reported as mean ± standard deviation. Tibial plateau fractures were classified according to Schatzker classification, which comprise six types, with severity increasing progressively from type I to type VI.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Tibial Plateau Fracture and Tibial Plateau Fractures, run by National Trauma Center.
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 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?
Schatzker Classification (time frame: From July 2015 to June 2019). 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 Jul 2025.
