About this study

Official title: Assessment of Orthopedic Care of the Z-shaped Foot in Children From 6 Months to 2 Years Old

Real-life, observational, monocentric, ambispective study, carried out in France. The aim of the study is to evaluate the success rate of orthopedic management of the Z-foot after at least 9 months of follow-up.

Read the detailed description

The study will include a single prospective data collection, which will make it possible to obtain prospective clinical data at the longest follow-up after treatment, with a minimum follow-up of 9 months. This collection will be done during a visit to the office or a phone call, depending on the preference of patients and their parents.

Early data (before the intervention, immediately after, and at 3 months of follow-up) will be collected retrospectively in medical records.

What participants receive

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

  • Orthopedic management of the Z-footProcedure or surgery

    Orthopedic treatment with femoropedic plasters and slotted splints in 1st intention

What is being measured

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

  1. The main criterion of the study is the success rate of orthopedic management of the Z-foot.

    Success is a composite criterion, measured at the last follow-up, defined by:

    • Outer edge of the straight foot; AND
    • Absence of dorsolateral hump OR possibility of putting on shoes without difficulty AND
    • Absence of recurrence of the malformation OR resumption of surgery OR resumption of orthopedic treatment.

    Measured: 9 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Moderate success rate of the procedure

    Defined by an external edge of the foot that is not rectilinear but the possibility of normal footwear, at the greatest distance (relative to the number of feet treated)

    Measured: 9 months

  2. Partial and total success rate (relative to the number of patients treated)

    • Total success rate: (number of patients with unilateral involvement and foot treated successfully + number of patients with bilateral involvement and both feet treated successfully) / total number of patients.
    • Partial success rate in patients with bilateral involvement: number of patients with only one of the 2 feet treated successfully / number of patients with bilateral involvement.

    Measured: 9 months

  3. Convex angle of the outer edge of the foot during follow-up

    The evolution of the convexity angle of the external edge of the foot will be studied during treatment and follow-up, in a mixed model with repeated measurements, with the initial severity of the malformation as a cofactor (angle ≤ 15 ° /> 15 ° ).

    Measured: 9 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Foot Deformities, run by GCS Ramsay Santé pour l'Enseignement et la Recherche at 1 site in France.

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 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record lists 1 site in France. 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?

The main criterion of the study is the success rate of orthopedic management of the Z-foot. (time frame: 9 months). 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 15 Aug 2022.
