About this study

The investigators use existing resources to carry out this new technology, in accord with the standard of the patients, were randomized to traditional fracture balloon tibia fixation or arthroscopic reduction under angioplasty, the original data and data acquisition in a certain period of time corresponding to the patient, through statistical and epidemiological analysis and comparison of the method of professional data analysis discussion and experience according to the analysis results, the balloon angioplasty tibial arthroscopy and traditional open reduction and internal fixation for the clinical differences between postoperative recovery of tibial plateau articular surface reduction and joint function, and feedback the results to guide the clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Read the detailed description

The Balloon Tibioplasty arthroscopic assisted forming technique based on the existing data, the subject of the design, 1. patients met the inclusion criteria, were randomized to traditional fracture tibial fixation or balloon assisted arthroscopic reduction under angioplasty, through follow-up, statistical evaluation after operation were compared between the two techniques for clinical curative effect the difference of tibial plateau articular surface reduction and recovery of joint function. 2., through the clinical practice, operation and experience summary, found that the new technology in the operation of the existing deficiencies, in order to improve the technology. 3 guide clinical diagnosis and treatment through results feedback and analysis.The investigators use existing resources to carry out this new technology, in accord with the standard of the patients, were randomized to traditional fracture balloon tibia fixation or arthroscopic reduction under angioplasty, the original data and data acquisition in a certain period of time corresponding to the patient, through statistical and epidemiological analysis and comparison of the method of professional data analysis discussion and experience according to the analysis results, the balloon angioplasty tibial arthroscopy and traditional open reduction and internal fixation for the clinical differences between postoperative recovery of tibial plateau articular surface reduction and joint function, and feedback the results to guide the clinical diagnosis and treatment.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Arthroscopic Assisted Balloon TibioplastyProcedure or surgery

    Under arthroscopy, the balloon supports the articular surface, with additional bone graft and necessary internal fixation

What is being measured

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

  1. Rasmussen scores change after surgery

    the knee joint Rasmussen scores change after surgery

    Measured: 3、6、12 and 24 mouth Rasmussen scores change after surgery

  2. Rasmunssen radiological evaluation scores change after surgery

    Rasmunssen radiological evaluation scores change after surgery

    Measured: immediately, and at 2 weeks and 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months Rasmunssen radiological evaluation scores change after surgery

  3. The quality of reduction

    The quality of reduction will be determined based on postoperative CT scans, which can directly measure the amount of residual depression

    Measured: 2 weeks and 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months postoperatively.

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Intraoperative blood loss

    blood loss in surgery

    Measured: Operation day

  2. Surgical duration

    Surgical duration

    Measured: The day of the operation

  3. VAS pain scores change after surgery

    The severity of lower limb pain after surgery

    Measured: from the day of the operation to the day of discharge from hospital (up to 2 weeks).

  4. Hospitalization period after surgery

    Hospitalization period after surgery

    Measured: The day of the operation to the day of discharge

  5. Complications

    Complications including wound infection, reoperations, and posttraumatic arthritis (PTA) will be recorded.

    Measured: 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months follow-up time. (PTA may not be seen in patients within the 24-month follow-up period, and we will perform follow-up for at least 10 years in all patients.)

  6. the Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) questionnaire

    Health-related quality of life will be measured using the Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) questionnaire during follow-up.

    Measured: 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months follow-up time

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Arthroscopic Assisted Balloon Tibioplasty in people with Arthroscopy and Tibial Fractures, run by Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 7 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Rasmussen scores change after surgery (time frame: 3、6、12 and 24 mouth Rasmussen scores change after surgery). The study lists 3 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 NCT03327337, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 7 Aug 2019.
