What participants receive

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

  • modified buccal flap and subepithelial connective palatal flapProcedure or surgery

    The connective flap was harvested from the deeper area of the palatal mucosa. Pedicle flap dimensions were reported using the periodontal probe. The flap was then rotated to cover the oro antral communication (OAC) area. The rotation could be in mesial or distal direction, related to OAC position and for the convenience of the donor site. The connective palatal flap was sutured to the buccal periostium using mattress sutures.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing modified buccal flap and subepithelial connective palatal flap in people with Surgery Site Fistula, run by University of Siena at 1 site in Italy.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Aug 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 Italy. 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?

Closure of the communication (time frame: Day 30). 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 10 Aug 2020.
