Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the contents in blood sampled from surgery site during hip replacement compared with blood sampled from abdominal aortic surgery. Is there any difference in pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1beta, IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α), complement activation (C3a)? Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pro-inflammatory Cytokines (IL-1beta,IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α) and Complement Activation (C3a) in Blood Collected From Surgery Field From Patients Undergoing Orthopedic Surgery Compared to Patients Undergoing Abdominal Aneurysm Repair.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the contents in blood sampled from surgery site during hip replacement compared with blood sampled from abdominal aortic surgery. Is there any difference in pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1beta, IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α), complement activation (C3a)?

Read the detailed description

Patient (n= 10) scheduled for total hip replacement or hemiprosthesis and patient (n=10) scheduled for abdominal aortic surgery.

Primary outcome:

Pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α) and complement activation (C3a) in blood samples collected from surgery field. Comparison between the 2 groups.

Secondary outcome:

Haemoglobin, Trc, INR in blood samples and plasma will be analysed and compared between the 2 groups.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Aortic Diseases and Osteoarthritis, Hip, run by Sykehuset i Vestfold HF at 1 site in Norway.

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 13 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 11 Jun 2010. 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 Norway. 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?

Pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α) and complement activation (C3a) in blood samples collected from surgery field. Comparison between the 2 groups. (time frame: 30 days). 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 Jun 2010.
