What is being measured

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

  1. Hip score

    compare between hip score in first group of pfna versus hip score in second group of THA

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year"

  2. Operation time

    compartive operative time between first group of pfna versus second group of THA

    Measured: During surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Proximal Femoral Nail and Dual Mobility Arthroplasty in people with Trochanteric Fractures, run by Cairo 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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jan 2023. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Contact Marcos Ha Morris (1287076751 ext. 0020, marcos.hanna.morris@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Hip score (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year"). The study lists 2 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 11 Jan 2023.
