Functional outcomes will be assessed by DASH (disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand) score and with Purdue Pegboard Test by the subject's respective hand therapist at their last visit. Results will contribute to generating a preoperative decision algorithm for single digit amputation injuries.", 'detailedDescription': "Research design: Prospective observational cohort study\n\nStudy population, enrollment, and duration of participation:\n\nCollaborating institutions Revision amputation cohort: CHUM, Santa Cabrini Hospital and Maisonneuve Rosemont Hospital Replantation cohort: CEVARMU/CHUM\n\nInclusion Criteria: All replantation and revision amputation of single digits who are treated at the collaborating hospital centres Exclusion Criteria: Thumb amputation, Multiple digit amputation, Failure to follow-up with an occupational therapist\n\nEnrollment:\n\nDatabase encompassing regional plastic surgery interventions will be reviewed to target patients who underwent single digit replantation and revision amputation in the last year, up until the first patient that is not scheduled to come back for evaluation with his hand therapist (as not to introduce a selection bias). Going forward we will run prospectively until we have sufficient data to yield significant results, as the rarity of single digit replantation will be the limiting factor. On call plastic surgery residents at our institution will also be advised to contact the research personnel when they encounter possible candidates at the participating hospitals. The research personnel will in no instance intervene nor influence the decision-making process leading to either revision amputation or replantation of the single digit. Post-operatively, the research personnel will review the patient files to select participants meeting the selection criteria.\n\nParticipants will be classified to the following groups according to the intervention performed:\n\n* Replantation group\n* Revision amputation group\n* Crossover group (initially replanted, then underwent revision amputation) Subgroups\n* Injured digit (index, middle, ring, little)\n* Injury level: Tamai classification\n\n * Zone 1 (distal to FDP insertion)\n * Zone 2 (distal to interphalangeal joint until FDP insertion)\n * Zone 3 (middle phalanx distal to FDS insertion)\n * Zone 4 (proximal phalanx until middle phalanx FDS insertion) o Zone 5 (metacarpophalangeal joint and proximal)\n* Mechanism of injury o Guillotine\n\n * Minor crush\n * Major crush o Avulsion\n\nThe following data will be retrieved from the patients filles:\n\nDemographic variables/Patient characteristics\n\n* Age\n* Gender\n* Smoking status: cigarette and cannabis\n* Patient comorbidity:\n\n * Diabetes mellitus\n * Hypertension\n* Hand dominance\n* Patient preference: cultural beliefs Variables possibly influencing outcome\n* Ischemia time\n* Workers' compensation\n* Revision surgery\n* Acute post-op complications o Infection\n\n * Bleeding\n * Vascular thrombosis o Other\n* Chronic complications o Tendon rupture\n\n * Tendon adhesions\n * Bony malunion\n * Bony non-union\n * Painful neuroma formation o CRPS\n * Other\n\nEvaluation phase and follow-up Each patient's respective hand therapist will then be contacted to be introduced to the research protocol. Instructions regarding patient consent and evaluation tools will be explained. Hand therapists who have the necessary materials and tools to administer the tests and who are willing to participate in the study will receive a copy of the research protocol, detailed instructions regarding their participation and the consent form.\n\nEnd-of-hand therapy is defined as the last or second-to-last follow-up appointment with the collaborating hand therapist. At this moment, the hand therapist will introduce the patient to the research protocol and will obtain their informed written consent. The DASH score (appendix 1) will then be administered by the occupational therapist in a standardized manner to all participants. Lastly, a quantitative hand function test will be conducted using the Purdue Pegboard according to the standardized procedure described in the user manual by Lafayette Instrument Company, Inc. Both the injured and the non-injured hand will be tested.\n\nA secured online excel sheet will be shared amongst all the collaborating occupational therapists to record the test results.\n\nStatistical Methods:\n\nIn order to detect a significant difference in average functional outcome between the two study groups, we will conduct a two-sided t-test using the SPSS software (IBM SPSS, V26, NY). By choosing our cut-off to be 0.05 and a beta of 0.1, we gained 90% power (1 - beta), accordingly we will deem a p-value of ≤ 0.05 as statistically significant. Continuous data will be expressed as mean and standard deviation or median and range, and assessed with t test. Categorical (nominal) data will be summarized as the frequency (%) and we will utilize Pearson Chi-Square and Fisher's exact tests for analysis. We then will analyze the outcomes by logistic regression model comprising two study groups, sex, patient's comorbidities and habit of smoking, and the mechanism of injury. Multiple linear regression analysis will be performed to measure and control confounding variables.\n\nResults obtained from the study will then be used to generate a preoperative decision algorithm for single digit replantation vs. revision amputation. This could help guide clinicians from peripheral centres with questions about medico-legal issues.\n\nSafety Management:\n\nSince the study procedures are not greater than minimal risk, serious adverse events (SAE) are not expected. If any unanticipated problems related to the research involving risks to subjects or others happen during the course of this study (including SAEs) these will be reported to the IRB in accordance with the procedure described in the Mode opératoire normalisé-10: Gestion des évènements indésirables. Adverse events (AEs) that are not serious but that are notable and could involve risks to subjects will be summarized in narrative or other format and submitted to the CÉR at the time of continuing review."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '99 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'All subjects who have suffered a single digit amputation who are treated at the collaborating hospital centres', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Replantation of single digits treated at collaborating hospital centres\n* Revision amputation of single digits treated at collaborating hospital centres\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Thumb amputation\n* Multiple digit amputation\n* Failure to follow-up with hand therapist'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT05155735', 'briefTitle': 'Functional Outcomes of Single Digit Replantation Versus Revision Amputation', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': "Centre hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CHUM)"}, 'officialTitle': 'Functional Outcomes of Single Digit Replantation Versus Revision Amputation, a Prospective Study', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '2022-10233'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'label': 'Replantation', 'description': 'This group will include subjects who suffered a single digit non-thumb amputation, and whose finger was replanted.', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Replantation']}, {'label': 'Revision Amputation', 'description': 'This group will include subjects who suffered a single digit non-thumb amputation, and whose finger was not replanted.', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Primary wound closure']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Replantation', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'Surgical reattachment of a severed body part', 'armGroupLabels': ['Replantation']}, {'name': 'Primary wound closure', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'Primary wound closure with removal of exposed bone', 'armGroupLabels': ['Revision Amputation']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': 'H1T2M4', 'city': 'Montreal East', 'state': 'Quebec', 'status': 'RECRUITING', 'country': 'Canada', 'contacts': [{'name': 'Ophelie Doucet, MD', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'ophelie.doucet@umontreal.ca', 'phone': '438-882-9681'}], 'facility': 'Maisonneuve-Rosemont Hospital', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 45.63202, 'lon': -73.5075}}], 'centralContacts': [{'name': 'Ophelie Doucet', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'ophelie.doucet@umontreal.ca', 'phone': '5148908000'}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Bruno Mastropasqua, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Université de Montréal'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': "Centre hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CHUM)", 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
