NCT ID NCT07639619

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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 two surgical methods for treating unstable pelvic fractures in people aged 60 and older with osteoporosis. Half of the 88 participants will receive robot-assisted minimally invasive screw placement, while the other half will have conventional open surgery. The goal is to see which approach provides better pain relief, faster recovery, 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
Robot-assisted minimally invasive fixation (procedure)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that robot-assisted surgery leads to less pain, faster recovery, and fewer complications for elderly patients with pelvic fractures.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small, early-stage trial (88 participants) and has not yet started recruiting. The robot-assisted approach may not prove significantly better than conventional surgery, and technical issues or patient anatomy could limit its benefits.
