In the test group debridement of residual pockets was performed with ultrasonic scaler and the chitosan brush, whereas in the control group only ultrasonic scalers were used.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '80 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Subjects aged 18 or over\n* Subjects diagnosed with chronic periodontitis, Stage III or IV, and had received full mouth scaling and root planning at least three months prior to baseline examination\n* Subjects with at least two residual periodontal pockets of at least 5mm depth that bled on probing\n* Full mouth plaques scores ≤20%\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Subjects that had received antibiotic therapy 6 months prior to initial examination\n* Subjects with compromised systemic conditions\n* Patients undergoing chemotherapy or radiotherapy\n* Pregnant or lactating women'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT06127069', 'briefTitle': 'Treatment of Residual Pockets in Periodontal Patients Using an Oscillating Chitosan Device', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Aristotle University Of Thessaloniki'}, 'officialTitle': 'Treatment of Residual Pockets in Periodontal Patients Using an Oscillating Chitosan Device - A Randomized Parallel Arm Clinical Trial', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '14/07/2021, 129'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'chitosan group', 'description': 'debridement of residual periodontal pockets with ultrasonic scaler and the chitosan brush', 'interventionNames': ['Device: chitosan brush', 'Device: ultrasonic scaler']}, {'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'control group', 'description': 'debridement of residual periodontal pockets with ultrasonic scaler only', 'interventionNames': ['Device: ultrasonic scaler']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'chitosan brush', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'otherNames': ['Labrida BioClean'], 'description': 'debridement of periodontal pockets with ultrasonic scaler first and after with chitosan brush for 2 minutes', 'armGroupLabels': ['chitosan group']}, {'name': 'ultrasonic scaler', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'description': 'debridement of periodontal pockets only with ultrasonic scaler', 'armGroupLabels': ['chitosan group', 'control group']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'city': 'Thessaloniki', 'country': 'Greece', 'facility': 'Department of Periodontology, School of Dentistry, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 40.64072, 'lon': 22.93493}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Lazaros Tsalikis', 'role': 'STUDY_CHAIR', 'affiliation': 'Department of Periodontology, School of Dentistry, Aristotle University'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Aristotle University Of Thessaloniki', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Postgraduate Student, principal investigator', 'investigatorFullName': 'Georgia Tseleki', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Aristotle University Of Thessaloniki'}}}}
