About this study

Official title: Case Series to Evaluate Clinical Outcome of Coracoclavicular Ligament Repair Using Autogenous Gracilis Tendon in Endobutton System.

There are many surgical methods available for the treatment of patients with acromioclavicular dislocations. No single method has yet proven to be superior to the others.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical outcome and complications associated with coracoclavicular ligament repair using autogenous gracilis tendon graft implanted in a single transclavicle transcoracoid bone tunnel. The implantation is performed using an endobutton system that augments the repair with fibrewires.

The investigators will prospecitvely follow 30 patients enrolled in the study.

The hypthesis is that this near anatomical repair of the coracoclavicular ligaments will result in good clinical outcome and few complications.

Being tested
Surgical treatment of acromioclavicular dislocation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Surgical treatment of acromioclavicular dislocation. in people with Acromioclavicular Joint Dislocation., run by Helsingborgs Hospital at 1 site in Sweden.

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 5 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 2 Jan 2013. 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 Sweden. 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?

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?

Complication (time frame: 12 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01759147, which also lists 8 linked publications.

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?
