Oxygen therapy in trauma ankle surgery patients

To compare the complication rate of "at risk" patients who underwent trauma surgery of the ankle between 2 groups. Patients with at least one comorbidity and/or complex fracture were defined as "at risk": - Patient with a comorbidity defined at risk by the literature (Bhandari et al, 2004; Flynn et al, 2000): diabetes,…

CTIS Part I — objectives, methods, condition coding

Main objective

Scope: Efficacy

To compare the complication rate of "at risk" patients who underwent trauma surgery of the ankle between 2 groups. Patients with at least one comorbidity and/or complex fracture were defined as "at risk":
- Patient with a comorbidity defined at risk by the literature (Bhandari et al, 2004; Flynn et al, 2000): diabetes, smoking, peripheral neuropathy, obstructive arterial disease of the lower limbs (AOMI), microangiopathy, treatment influencing healing (chemotherapy, corticosteroids...)
- Patient with a complex fracture. Complex fractures are defined as dislocated bimalleolar fractures, trimalleolar fractures, distal quarter leg fractures, tibial pilon fractures, talus fractures and open fractures

Secondary objectives 6

  1. Compare the quality of healing between the two groups
  2. Compare the rate of revision surgery between the 2 groups
  3. Compare the delay in bone healing and the rate of pseudoarthrosis between the 2 groups
  4. To compare ankle pain between the 2 groups
  5. Compare the evolution of tissue oxygenation between the 2 groups in a subgroup of 40 patients
  6. Perform a cost-utility analysis (cost per QALY) comparing the 2 groups

Eligibility criteria

Principal inclusion / exclusion criteria as submitted by sponsor

Inclusion criteria 3

  1. Patient over 18 years of age
  2. Patient with at least one risk factor for scarring complications such as comorbidity(ies) and/or complex fracture
  3. Patient with at least one risk factor for scar complication, such as comorbidity(ies) and/or complex fracture: - Patient with a comorbidity defined as at risk in the literature (Bhandari et al, 2004; Flynn et al, 2000): diabetes, smoking, peripheral neuropathy, obstructive arterial disease of the lower limbs (AOMI), microangiopathy, treatment influencing healing (chemotherapy, corticosteroids, etc.). - Patients with complex fractures. Complex fractures include dislocated bimalleolar fractures, trimalleolar fractures, fractures of the distal quarter of the leg, tibial pilon fractures, talus fractures and open fractures.

Exclusion criteria 5

  1. Patient with chronic respiratory failure
  2. Patient with sleep apnea
  3. Patient with a bilateral ankle fracture
  4. Patient with polytrauma
  5. Patient on long-term oxygen therapy

Endpoints

Primary and secondary outcome measures (English text)

Primary endpoints 1

  1. Cutaneous and infectious complications within 6 months postoperatively: skin suffering (ecchymosis, phlyctenes), necrosis, superficial and deep infection and scar disunion.

Secondary endpoints 6

  1. Observer Scar Assessment Scale (OSAS) questionnaire, W3, W6 and W12
  2. Surgical resumption within 6 months after surgery
  3. Presence of delayed consolidation on radiograph at W12; and if so, presence of pseudarthrosis on radiograph at 24 weeks post-op (W24
  4. Pain VAS preoperatively, at H24, H48, W3, W6, W12 and W24
  5. Measurement of TcPO2 before the start of oxygen therapy pre-operatively, then at H48, W3. These measurements will be performed in a subgroup of 40 patients (20 patients in each subgroup)
  6. Incremental cost-utility ratio over a 24-week time horizon (QALY assessed by EQ-5D self-questionnaire pre-operatively and at H48, W3, W6 and W12 and W24)
