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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This trial tests whether using a piezoelectric device (which uses ultrasonic vibrations) to cut bone during Le Fort I osteotomy reduces surgery time and blood loss compared to the conventional method using a mallet and chisel. The study includes 60 adults with old, improperly healed maxillary fractures who have not had prior treatment. Researchers will measure how long the surgery takes and how much blood is lost during the procedure.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
piezoelectric device (piezosurgery) compared with conventional mallet and osteotome
What this could lead to
If piezosurgery reduces surgery time and blood loss, it could become a preferred technique for correcting old maxillary fractures.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 60 participants, so results may not apply broadly. Piezosurgery requires specialized equipment and training.
