Read the detailed description

It will be a comparative study in which we will swab cultures before skin preparation directly after skin preparation and at the and of the operation (hallux valgus correction and arthrodesis of the first metatarsophalangeal joint.

There will be a quantitative and quality analysis of the swabs. We will also measure allergic reactions. During the post-operative period of 6 weeks we will measure the wound infections stated by Prezies.

What is being measured

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

  1. number of positive swab cultures

    During surgery swabs will be taken before skin desinfection, after skin desinfection and at the end of the surgery.

    We will count the number of positive swab cultures taken from the webspace of their first and second toe and at the place of incision 48 hours post-operatively.

    Measured: From start surgery week until 48 hours post-operatively

  2. wound infection

    we will count the number of wound infections, stated by Prezies, for a period of 6 weeks postoperatively

    Measured: until 6 weeks postoperatively

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Allergic events

    we will look at the number of allergic events occuring.

    Measured: Until 6 weeks postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing skin preparation in people with Hallux Valgus and Arthritis of the First Metatarsophalangeal Joint, run by St. Antonius Hospital at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 9 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

number of positive swab cultures (time frame: From start surgery week until 48 hours post-operatively). 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 9 Jun 2014.
