ADEPTH-Pilot: Usability of the ADEPTH Sensor for Bore Depth Measurements in Plate Osteosynthesis Procedures
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The goal of this monocenter randomized pilot study is to investigate the usability of the ADEPTH sensor for bore depth measurements in plate osteosynthesis procedures. The main question it aims to answer is:
- What is the usability score of the ADEPTH sensor for bore depth measurements during plate osteosynthesis procedures? Participants will receive either bore depth measurements with the ADEPTH sensor or with the manual depth gauge.

Detailed Description
To assess the usability score of the ADEPTH sensor for bore depth measurements in plate osteosynthesis procedures. The surgeon and OR-assistant will fill in one survey after performing 3 operations with the ADEPTH sensor and one survey after performing 3 operations with the manual depth gauge.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
No Intervention: Control Participants will receive bore depth measurements with the manual depth gauge, which is the golden standard for bore depth measurements during plate osteosynthesis procedures. |
|
Experimental: Intervention Participants will receive bore depth measurements with the ADEPTH sensor, which is a new sensor technology for bore depth measurements during plate osteosynthesis procedures. |
Device: ADEPTH
ADEPTH sensor will be used for bore depth measurements during plate osteosynthesis procedures.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Usability score of the ADEPTH sensor for bore depth measurements in plate osteosynthesis [Surgeon and OR assistant fill in the SUS after 3 operations in each study group. Anticipated study duration is 6 months.]
Used tool: System Usability Survey (SUS)
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Duration in seconds of the fixation process per screw during plate osteosynthesis [In both study groups the operation will be recorded. Anticipated study duration is 6 months.]
Tool: Video system in OR, video recording of each participant.
