What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study compares a new traction method that avoids using a perineal post during hip arthroscopy to the standard method. The goal is to see if it reduces nerve injuries, pain, and other complications. 270 people with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome will be randomly assigned to one of the two traction techniques.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Perineal Post-Free Traction (procedure)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a safer traction method for hip arthroscopy, reducing nerve injuries and improving recovery.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage trial with 270 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The new technique might not reduce complications or could have unforeseen issues.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 270 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Aged 15 to 60 years; * Met the diagnostic criteria of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAI) and indicated for hip arthroscopy based on patient history, symptoms, signs, physical examination, imaging (pelvic anteroposterior view, frog-leg view, CT 3D reconstruction, MRI), and diagnostic injections; * Able to read and sign the informed consent form. Exclusion Criteria: * History of high-energy hip trauma, previous ipsilateral or contralateral hip surgery, avascular necrosis of the femoral head, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, Perthes disease, severe osteoporosis, tumors, acetabular stress fractures, or proliferative or immune hip diseases; * Diseases causing groin numbness, foot numbness, sexual dysfunction, urinary dysfunction, skin injuries, perineal injuries, nerve injuries, radicular pain, inner or outer thigh numbness; * Abnormal heart, lung, liver, kidney function, severe coagulation disorders, poorly controlled diabetes, judged by the researcher to have an infection risk; * Consciousness disorders, psychiatric disorders, or neuromuscular dysfunction affecting lower limb function; * Active infection foci (systemic or local infectious lesions); * Pregnancy, lactation, or planned pregnancy during the clinical study period; * Participation in another clinical trial within the past 3 months; * Patients deemed unsuitable for the clinical trial by the researcher for other reasons.
