Ankle Injury Clinical Trial
Official title:
Classification of Ankle Injury Observed With X-ray Combined With Magnetic Resonance Imaging: a Retrospective, Self-controlled, Clinical Trial With 3-month Follow-up
To verify whether X-ray combined with MRI is able to carry out correct fracture classification and postoperative evaluation in patients with ankle fractures.
History and current related studies Intraarticular fractures and ruptures of ligaments
around the joint often occur after ankle injury. Early correct treatment can effectively
help joint repair, and reduce the incidence of serious complications. Ankle fractures are
one of the common orthopedic fractures. X-ray is a common method for detecting ankle injury,
can determine the fracture site, type and extent. However, X-ray is difficult to display
ankle fracture, bone fragments, displacement, or ligament injury, so it cannot make accurate
fracture classification or formulate treatment programs.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can clearly show the ankle ligament, tendon, and cartilage
injury, is advantageous in the diagnosis of ligament injury after ankle fracture, and can
provide accurate imaging information. MRI can provide accurate preoperative assessment of
clinical indicators for the rational formulation of treatment programs to reduce
complications. The observation of ankle contusion observed by MRI is conducive to analyzing
the mechanism of ankle joint injury.
Therefore, X-ray combined with MRI would perfectly verify soft tissue injury after ankle
fractures so as to make effective surgical program.
Adverse events Adverse events including incision pain, incision nonunion, ankle pain,
peripheral nerve injury of ankle joint, ankle joint inflammation, and soft tissue injury.
Severe adverse events are events occurred during clinical trial, including requiring
hospitalization, prolonged hospitalization, disability, inability to work, life-threatening,
or fatalities. If severe adverse events occur, investigators would report details, including
the date of occurrence and measures taken to treat the adverse events, to the principle
investigator and the institutional review board within 24 hours.
Data collection, management, analysis and open-access
1. Case report forms with demographic data, disease diagnosis, accompanying diseases, drug
allergy history, and adverse events were collected.
2. Data were processed using Epidata software (Epidata Association, Odense, Denmark),
collated, and then recorded electronically. All data regarding this trial were
preserved by the First Hospital, Hebei Medical University, China.
3. The electronic database was statistically analyzed by a professional statistician who
created an outcome analysis report that was submitted to the lead researchers.
