NCT05437562
This study follows the Pilot Investigation of Ewing Amputation for Veterans with PAD Undergoing a Below Knee Amputation. The 2 year pilot feasibility phase has concluded recruitment and enrollment. The current phase is a 5 year randomized study of Ewing Below Knee Amputation vs. Standard Below Knee Amputation. If Veterans participate, they will be randomized to either Ewing Amputation or Standard Below Knee Amputation. The scientific premise motivating this proposal is that Ewing Amputation is a promising surgical technique that may improve walking metrics in dysvascular Veterans by providing a better residual limb and improving pain and balance. In preparation of this proposal, we have formed multi-disciplinary surgical teams at each site, and we have been supported by a clinical trial planning meeting to garner the considerable expertise in rehabilitation and amputee assessment from VA and DOD experts to assist in the design of this proposal, testing the overall hypothesis that: Ewing Amputation can help Veterans walk.
NCT05668182
This project consists of a prospective case design. Study candidates will include all patients ages 18 and over who were evaluated at UCSD and found to have a critical-sized humerus, femur, or tibia segmental defect that would be fixed through surgery. Patients who consent to study participation will receive the TRUMATCH Graft Cage for their long bone segmental defect repair. Data on healing rates, complication rates, re-operation rates, time to return to normal activity, and pain levels will be collected for each participation. After 3 years of data collection, we will analyze this data to provide further insight on the utility of the TRUMATCH Graft Cage. Given the significant difficulty with repairing segmental long bone defects, it is imperative to evaluate novel systems to appropriately manage these injuries.
