What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Quality of Life

    Quality of life was assessed using the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP) for assessing health-related quality of life in edentulous adults (EDENT) scale with 19 items.

    Measured: One year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Incidence of complications

    Complications: infection, implant failure, presence of signs and symptoms of peri-implant mucositis.

    Measured: Two years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Integrated system to insert two splinted (bar) mini dental implants for mandibular overdenture and Denture in people with Jaw, Edentulous, run by University of Concepcion, Chile at 1 site in Chile.

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 5 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 Apr 2014. 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 Chile. 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?

Change in Quality of Life (time frame: One year). 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 NCT02107612, which also lists 4 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Apr 2014.
