Ultrasound-guided repair for broken nose
This trial tests a technique that uses ultrasound to guide the realignment of a broken nose, which may be less invasive and more precise than traditional methods. It could help improve the appearance and breathing function for people with recent nasal injuries.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your nose was injured within the last 2 weeks.
- Your nose is visibly crooked or you have trouble breathing through your nose.
- You are between 5 and 70 years old.
- You do not have injuries to the eye socket or brain.
- You are healthy enough for surgery.

This study looks at treating a broken nose in children soon after the injury. It aims to see if early care helps the nose heal better.
This trial tests whether using a 3D virtual model to plan surgery and pre-bend plates helps surgeons repair fractures around the nose, eye socket, and forehead more accurately. This may lead to better facial alignment and recovery.
This study is testing a new ultrasound method to see how well children's broken bones are healing, as a possible alternative to repeated X-rays. It may help reduce radiation exposure and make follow-up visits easier for kids.
This trial compares two types of surgery to fix a crooked nasal septum (the wall inside your nose) that causes ongoing nasal blockage. One surgery only fixes the septum, the other also reduces the size of the turbinates (small structures inside the nose that help filter air). The goal is to see which approach works better for breathing.
This study tests a new low-temperature radiofrequency treatment that remodels nasal cartilage during nose surgery, which may help improve breathing and shape without extra cuts. It aims to make the surgery more effective for people having functional or cosmetic nose jobs.
This trial tests whether using ultrasound at the bedside can help find and treat breaks in the rib cage cartilage after a recent chest injury, compared to just using CT scans. It may help guide pain management and care for people with these injuries.
