Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Nail bed repair with eponychial sent
|
The nail bed repair will be performed with 6-0 chromic suture material.
After the nail bed repair, an eponychial stent will be secured under the eponychial fold with suture.
The stent can be the native nail plate, suture container foil, or nonadherent gauze (i.e.
Xeroform).
If the injury avulsed the nail plate and the patient presents without it, either the foil from the suture wrapper/container or a piece of nonadherent gauze (i.e.
Xeroform) will be used as a stent.
A nonadherent sterile dressing will be applied to the digit, and each patient will be discharged with a 5-day course of cephalexin for prophylaxis against infection.
|
Active Comparator: Nail bed repair without eponychial stent
|
The nail bed repair will be performed with 6-0 chromic suture material.
After the nail bed repair, an eponychial stent will not be secured under the eponychial fold.
A nonadherent sterile dressing will be applied to the digit, and each patient will be discharged with a 5-day course of cephalexin for prophylaxis against infection.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Patient reported score on functional outcome scale (10-point analog scale)
Time Frame: after procedure: 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months
|
Mean score from all time points 0 = complete loss of affected digit function during activities of daily living and recreational activities 10 = no functional limitation |
after procedure: 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months
|
Patient reported score on cosmetic outcome scale (10-point analog scale)
Time Frame: after procedure: 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months
|
Mean score from all time points 0 = cosmetically unacceptable 10 = no perceived difference between treated finger and the same finger on the contralateral hand |
after procedure: 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months
|
Patient reported pain level on Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
Time Frame: after procedure: 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months
|
Mean score from all time points 0 = no pain 10 = persistent finger pain during rest and activity |
after procedure: 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months
|
Physician reported cosmetic outcome
Time Frame: after procedure: 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months
|
Mean score from all time points Zook et al. Excellent = identical in appearance to the same finger on the contralateral hand Very good = 1 variation from identical, such as incomplete adherence, nail ridging, split nails, or eponychial deformity. Good = 2 minor variations from identical. Poor = more than 3 variations or 1 major variation from the same finger on the contralateral hand. |
after procedure: 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months
