What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 tested a new 3D-modified anatomical mesh for repairing complex fractures around the eye and cheekbone. Twenty-four adults with these fractures were randomly assigned to receive either the new mesh or standard metal plates and mesh. The goal was to see if the new design leads to better bone alignment and fewer complications.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
3D-modified anatomical mesh (device)
What this could lead to
If successful, this mesh could offer a better way to repair complex facial fractures, potentially improving healing and reducing complications.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 24 participants. The results may not apply to all patients, and the new mesh might not outperform standard methods.

Show the full entry requirements

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

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patients suffering from Orbito-Zygomaticomaxillary complex fractures with fracture in the orbital floor and orbital floor defect(16). 2. Fractures that are indicated for open reduction and internal fixation. 3. Patients suffering from ocular complications: 1. Monocular diplopia. 2. Enophthalmos above 2 mm. 3. Restricted ocular motility. 4. Patients with orbital wall defects with orbital soft tissue herniation into the maxillary sinus. 5. Adult patient either male or female that agrees to present for follow-up visits for an adequate postoperative period. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patients with isolated orbital floor defects and blowout fractures. 2. Patients with isolated zygomatico-maxillary complex fracture with no orbital floor/ walls defects. 3. Patients with bilateral orbital defects. 4. Patients with Infected wounds in periorbital region. 5. Medically compromised patients rendering them inoperable. 6. Patients with ruptured globe or blindness.
