Trial summary

Each year, there are approximately 5 million new vertebral fractures worldwide1. Most of these fractures involve the thoracolumbar or lumbar spines. The thoracolumbar junction, due to its mechanical transition zone, and the lumbar spine, due to its absence of stabilizing articulations with the ribs, lordotic posture… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Management of Spine Fractures According to The Thoracolumbar AO Spine Injury Score

Each year, there are approximately 5 million new vertebral fractures worldwide1. Most of these fractures involve the thoracolumbar or lumbar spines. The thoracolumbar junction, due to its mechanical transition zone, and the lumbar spine, due to its absence of stabilizing articulations with the ribs, lordotic posture and more sagittal oriented facet joints, are vulnerable for involvement in spinal injuries2.

Burst fractures occurs frequently in high-energy traumas which are most commonly associated with falls and traffic accidents.3

What participants receive

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

  • spine surgeryProcedure or surgery

    AO Classification6 It classifies thoracolumbar fractures into 3 major groups, based on the mechanism of injury.and each of them subdivided to 3 subgroups.

    1. Compression B. Distraction C. multi-directional with translation Thoracolumbar AO spine injury score

What is being measured

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

  1. AO Spine Injury Score

    • injury morphology
    • integrity of the PLC
    • neurological status

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing spine surgery in people with Spine Fracture, run by Sohag University 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 1 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 13 Jun 2024. 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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

AO Spine Injury Score (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT06458309, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 13 Jun 2024.
