Lateral Window Versus Intralift™ Sinus Floor Elevation

July 31, 2020 updated by: Dr. France LAMBERT, University of Liege

Intraoperative and Postoperative Outcomes of Sinus Floor Elevation Using Lateral Window Technique Versus Hydrodynamic Transalveolar Approach: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Several approaches have been used in order to regenerate bone in the upper jaw in case of insufficient alveolar bone height for implant placement. However, new emerging techniques need to be assessed and compared to conventional methods in order to define their potential indications.

The purpose of the present randomized controlled clinical trial was to compare the clinical outcomes of two sinus floor elevation techniques: conventional lateral window technique versus a novel transalveolar approach using hydrodynamic ultrasonic device.

Study Overview

Status

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • edentulism in the posterior maxilla (unitary or plural)
  • need of a sinus floor augmentation procedure before implant placement

Exclusion Criteria:

  • any uncontrolled systemic disease
  • ongoing chemo- or radiotherapy
  • history of maxillary sinus diseases or acute sinus-related issues

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Sinus membrane perforation
Time Frame: During the surgery (from beginning to end)
Presence/absence of sinus membrane perforation during the surgery
During the surgery (from beginning to end)
Surgical procedure duration
Time Frame: From beginning of surgery until the end of surgery
The time measurement started from the administration of local anesthesia and ended when the placement of final suture was completed. The time was measured using a stopwatch.
From beginning of surgery until the end of surgery
Edema
Time Frame: From the end of surgery up to 1 week postoperatively
Presence/absence of edema postoperatively
From the end of surgery up to 1 week postoperatively
Hematoma
Time Frame: From the end of surgery up to 1 week postoperatively
Presence/absence of hematoma postoperatively
From the end of surgery up to 1 week postoperatively
Postsurgical bleeding
Time Frame: From the end of surgery up to 1 week postoperatively
Presence/absence of bleeding postoperatively
From the end of surgery up to 1 week postoperatively
Nasal discharge
Time Frame: From the end of surgery up to 1 week postoperatively
Presence/absence of nasal discharge postoperatively
From the end of surgery up to 1 week postoperatively
NSAID consumption
Time Frame: From the end of surgery up to 1 week postoperatively
Quantification of NSAID consumption per day up to 1 week postoperatively (tablets/per day)
From the end of surgery up to 1 week postoperatively
Patient related outcome measures (PROMs)
Time Frame: From right before the surgery up to 1 week postoperatively
PROMs were assessed with a questionnaire using a visual analogue scale (VAS), which was given to all participants in order to assess their perception before, during, and after the intervention. A graduated scale from 0 to 10 was used, with a lower score presenting a better outcome.
From right before the surgery up to 1 week postoperatively

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Radiographic outcomes
Time Frame: From the baseline (surgery procedure) up to 1 year post-surgery
Radiographic (CBCT) qualitative assessment of the gained volume (change in volume from baseline to 1 year postoperatively).
From the baseline (surgery procedure) up to 1 year post-surgery
Implant survival rates
Time Frame: From the baseline (surgery procedure) up to 1 year post-surgery
Implant survival rates assessment at 1 year postoperatively.
From the baseline (surgery procedure) up to 1 year post-surgery

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure.
