Special coated nail aims to stop devastating bone infections in severe fractures

NCT ID NCT05421741

Summary

This study is testing if a new type of surgical nail coated with antibiotics can prevent deep bone infections in patients with severe open leg fractures. It will compare this new nail to the standard, uncoated nail currently used. Researchers will follow about 484 adult patients for one year to see which group has fewer infections and better recovery.
