U.S., May 17 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06976801) titled 'Tibial IMN Vs. Tibial Micromotion IMN' on Jan. 13.
Brief Summary: Our null hypothesis is that micromotion tibial intramedullary fixation (IMFN) does not impact union or complication rates when compared to standard of care treatment with non-micromotion tibial nail fixation. There are no current or past randomized controlled trials comparing these fixation techniques to one another. There is good data supporting both the use of intramedullary fixation for tibial fractures alone, and in high-risk patient populations (open fractures, GSW tibial fractures). However, the effectiveness of these methods with respect to each other has never ...
