ClinicalTrials.gov · COMPLETED, 2012

86 participants

Abstract

To verify that CT scan and X-ray can predict the collapse of the necrotic femoral head before hip arthroplasty and effectively guide the surgical management.

Conditions: Hip Arthropathy.

Primary outcome: Sensitivity.

Enrollment: 86 participants.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 86 participants or records.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
