Nail Bed Injury clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Children's Nail Bed Injuries : Study of the Efficacy of the Simple Relocation of Nail Plate

Ongl'HUS

Start date: May 22, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Nail bed injuries in children, most frequently under 3 years-old, result in crush injuries. The frequency is around 34 percent of the children hand injuries (Claudet et al, 2007). The empirical reparation technique is the nail bed suture and the relocation of the nail plate. However, some authors think that suture the nail bed could increase the traumatism of the nail bed because of the needle, the crush by the clamps and by the stitches too tight (Langlois, Yam). An author has proposed, in a prospective, randomized clinical trial to treat the nail bed injuries with a glue: the 2-octylcyanoacrylate, without suture of the nail bed. Advantages of this technique, claimed by the author, was time saving, with an aesthetical result as same as the treatment with suture of the nail bed. A same study validated the technique in a paediatric population (Langlois et al., 2010). So, it seems that it is not necessary to suture the nail bed. But, in our practice, the investigators noted complications not mentioned in previous studies: hematomas causing pain, effusion and dislocation of the nail plate, with constrain the patient to consult in emergency. The 2-octylcyanoacrylate is difficult to use in nail bed injuries and is expensive. Our hypothesis is the simple relocation of the nail plate in nail bed injuries in paediatric population is enough to have good to excellent aesthetical results, with less complications and a lower cost, than the other techniques. The aim of this study is to assess the aesthetical results 3 months after simple relocation of the nail plate for nail bed injuries in children.
