Study summary

Knee prothesis surgery is responsible of a risk of thrombosis and hemorrhage. To prevent thrombosis, patients have systematic anticoagulation after surgery which are responsible of hemorrhage. A local glue which improve local coagulation and have no impact of thrombosis can be a solution to limit hemorrhage. The purpose of this trial is to study the impact of a biological glue administration on the bleeding loss at five days after a total knee prosthesis surgery operation.

Read the detailed description

The orthopaedic surgeon administers a local pulverisation of the biological glue during the surgery.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Apr 25, 2012, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
