Brief Summary: This study aims to evaluate the safety effectiveness and usability of BoneTape an innovative medical device designed to fix facial bone fractures specifically in the zygomaticomaxillary midface region Zygomaticomaxillary fractures often caused by trauma like car accidents or falls require surgery to align and stabilize the bones for proper healing Traditional methods use metal plates and screws which can be complicated to install over-engineered for the area and may lead to complications requiring additional surgeries

BoneTape is a new resorbable biodegradable device that offers a simpler potentially safer alternative Unlike traditional metal hardware BoneTape is a flexible thin plate that can be easily cut to the required shape during surgery and applied directly to the bone using a special tool that anchors it without needing to drill or screw holes This process significantly simplifies the surgical procedure reduces the time needed for fixation and avoids complications associated with drilling into healthy bone tissue

Study Objectives

Feasibility Determine if BoneTape can be successfully used to stabilize midfacial fractures

Effectiveness Assess the ability of BoneTape to help bones heal properly without additional complications

Safety Monitor and evaluate any adverse events related to the use of BoneTape

Study Design

The study is designed as a single-arm cohort study

Participants will undergo baseline pre-operative assessments including clinical exams CT scans and pain questionnaires BoneTape will be applied during surgery and post-operative assessments will take place within 24 hours Follow-up visits will occur at 1 week 6 weeks 24 weeks and 12 months to monitor the healing process assess pain levels and check for any adverse events

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Adults with a unilateral non-comminuted not broken into multiple pieces zygomaticomaxillary fracture requiring surgery

Must be skeletally mature able and willing to attend follow-up visits and provide informed consent

Exclusion

Patients with critically sized bone defects fractures requiring orbital floor surgery pregnancy certain medical conditions impairing bone healing or those unwilling or unable to follow the study procedures

Study Duration

The total study duration is expected to be 21-24 months including the 12-month follow-up period for each participant

Outcome Measures

The primary outcomes include the feasibility of the procedure successful use of BoneTape without additional hardware early effectiveness bone healing and stability at 6 and 24 weeks and safety rate and type of adverse events up to 24 weeks Secondary outcomes will assess long-term safety and effectiveness at 12 months patient-reported outcomes on pain and physician feedback on device usability

This study is a critical step in evaluating BoneTape as a potential alternative to current facial bone fixation methods potentially improving surgical outcomes and patient quality of life by reducing the complexity of procedures and minimizing the need for additional surgeries
