Bone healing is the primary outcome measure. The definition of bone healing is: <br> healing of the bone segments after 8 weeks without clinical and radiological signs of disturbed bone healing. Bone healing related complications are not allowed during this period.
Achtergrond van het onderzoek
The aim of this multi-center randomized clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety aspects of the Inion biodegradable osteofixation system in comparison to a titanium system for the treatment of maxillofacial traumata and orthognatic anomalies in the maxillofacial skeleton.
The research population consists of patients who are scheduled for treatment of
1. zygoma fractures,
2. Le Fort I fractures,
3. Le Fort I osteotomies,
4. mandibular fractures and
5. Bi-lateral Sagittal Split Osteotomiës (BSSO).
The patients (blinded for treatment group) will be assigned at random to a titanium and a degradable group. Bone fixation by patients in the biodegradable group will be done with the Inion degradable fixation system. The used titanium system will be a conventional system. The two treatment modalities (biodegradable versus titanium) will be compared at non-inferiority level. The reason for this is that bone segments fixed with biodegradable plates and screws must heal as good as bone segments fixed with titanium plates and screws.
Bone healing is the primary outcome measure. The definition of bone healing is:
healing of the bone segments after 8 weeks without any clinical and radiological signs of disturbed bone healing. The secondary outcome measures contain the following aspects: inflammatory reaction present, seriousness inflammatory reaction, palpability, dehiscence, occlusion, bone formation, pain, cold/warm sensitivity, mandibular function, and costs.
Doel van het onderzoek
The performance of the Inion biodegradable osteofixation system is inferior compared to a titanium system regarding the treatment of zygoma, Le Fort I fractures, Le Fort I osteotomies, mandibula fractures en bi-lateral sagittal split osteotomies of the maxillofacial skeleton by healthy patients with regard to bone healing, stability and complications like, infections, plate dehiscence’s, hypersensitivity and palpability?
Onderzoeksproduct en/of interventie
Fixing bone segments in the maxillofacial skeleton with titanium or biodegradable fixation devices.
