High-strength suture versus traditional tension band to fix a broken kneecap
This project will see if using a high-strength suture tension band instead of the traditional screw-cable tension band reduces pain and improves knee function in adults (18–55) with certain displaced patellar fractures (AO/OTA 34-C1 or 34-C2).
-
Intra-operative intra-articular analgesic cocktail for patella fracture fixation
This trial will test whether giving an intra-articular analgesic cocktail during patella fixation surgery reduces pain and helps people get moving sooner after surgery.
-
Comparing two methods for fixing unstable patellar fractures
This study is testing whether using a new type of plate to fix unstable kneecap fractures works better and is safer than the traditional wiring method for people with these injuries.

3, as of November 12, 2026. We update this list each time we refresh our data from ClinicalTrials.gov.
Where are these trials running?
In 2 countries. The most sites are in Hong Kong (2 trials), China (1 trial). Each study page lists its sites and which ones are recruiting.
