About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the stabilization of trochanteric fracture using a screw-plate TRAUMAX

Read the detailed description

Hip fractures are a serious public health problem. The current incidence is projected to increase fourfold worldwide by the year 2050. This affliction is obviously linked to the aging of the population and the absence of a systematic prevention of osteoporosis.

This leads to the creation of a minimally invasive, or ever percutaneous, implantable osteosynthesis material which associates :

  • the well-known reliability of osteosynthesis using screw-plate with barrel,
  • the safety of the fixation with Surfix concept, locking the screws to the plate using lock-screws,
  • a modularity thanks to the choice between 3 sizes of barrel,
  • the creation of a simple material, easing the operative surgery by minimally invasive approach.

The TRAUMAX answers to all those characteristics.

What is being measured

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

  1. The consolidation rate

    Measured: 6 months after surgery

  2. The rate of complication due to the device

    Measured: 6 months after surgery

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. The evolution of the functional scores (Parker, ADL, Katz, Robinson) between before the fracture and after the intervention.

    Measured: 3 and 6 months after surgery

  2. PMA score

    Measured: 3 and 6 months after surgery

  3. operating time

    Measured: during the surgery

  4. The duration of the use of the amplifier of brilliancy during the intervention

    Measured: during the surgery

  5. The radiological position of the device

    Measured: 5 days, 3 and 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hip Fracture, run by Integra LifeSciences Services at 10 sites 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Sep 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites 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?

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?

The consolidation rate (time frame: 6 months after surgery). 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 11 Sep 2014.
