NCT ID NCT07362121
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a device called the Verus frame, which supports the leg during surgery to fix a broken shinbone. The goal is to see if it helps surgeons align the bone more accurately. Twenty-five adults with tibial fractures will be enrolled, and their results will be compared to a control group from a registry.

- Active substance
- Verus frame (a leg support device used during surgery)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this device could help surgeons set the broken bone more accurately, potentially leading to better healing and fewer long-term problems.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early study with only 25 people and no random assignment. The device is already on the market, so the main question is whether it works better than standard care.
