About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Bone Reduction Forceps in Reducing Mandibular Fracture

Different methods have been used in reducing mandibular fractures. Bone reduction forceps provides precise reduction and stabilize mandibular fracture segments.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to evaluate clinically and radiographically the effect of using bone reduction forceps in the reduction of isolated mandibular fractures.

10 patients complaining of isolated mandibular fractures in need of open reduction and internal fixation underwent reduction using bone reduction forceps.

The patients followed up clinically after 1 and 2 weeks, 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively. Radiographic evaluation will be performed by computed tomography (CT) preoperatively, and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) will be done after 3 and 6 months

What participants receive

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

  • Bone reducion forcepsDevice

    Repositioning forceps provide a more accurate anatomical reduction and higher pre-compression can be achieved compared to IMF or manual reduction

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in radiodensitometric measurements

    cone-beam computerized tomograms (CBCT) used to analyze the mean bone density at the site of fracture

    Measured: at 3rd, 6th months

  2. change in maximal mouth opening

    maximal interincisal opening between maxillary and mandibular central incisors.

    Measured: 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, 6 weeks, and 3 months

  3. change in occlusion

    Any occlusal disturbance including open bite or improper tooth contact will be recorded

    Measured: 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, 6 weeks, and 3 months

  4. change in pain level

    Pain: will be measured on Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The patients will be asked to rate their postoperative pain on a 4-point scale (0= none, 1= slight, 2= moderate, 3- severe)

    Measured: 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, 6 weeks, and 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Bone reducion forceps in people with Mandibular Fractures, run by Hams Hamed Abdelrahman at 1 site in Egypt.

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 23 Jun 2020. 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 Egypt. 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?

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?

Change in radiodensitometric measurements (time frame: at 3rd, 6th months). The study lists 4 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 23 Jun 2020.
