Trial Outcomes & Findings for Gingival Bleeding and Von Willebrand Disease Typ 2 and 3 (NCT NCT03078595)

NCT ID: NCT03078595

Last Updated: 2020-02-27

Results Overview

Using a periodontal probe probing pocket depths (PPD) are assessed with a force of 0.2 N at 6 sites per tooth (mesio-buccal, buccal, disto-buccal, disto-oral, oral, mesio-oral). After 30 seconds bleeding on probing is scored at each site. The frequency of bleeding sites of the total number of assessed sites is calculated as index.

Participant Flow

At the Haemophilia Centre, Medical Clinic III/Institute for Transfusion Medicine, Hospital of the Johann Wolfgang Goethe-University Frankfurt/Main approximately 1500 charts of VWD patients were screened rendering about 35 patients with VWD type 2 and 3.

From July 16, 2015 to July 15, 2016 24 type 2 and 3 VWD cases were enrolled. Due to the difficulty to find more type 2 and 3 VWD patients willing to participate recruitment was stopped in March 2017 after enrolment of 24 individuals. From April 04, 2016 to March 24, 2017 24 patients that self-reported to be hematologically healthy were enrolled.

Measure
Von Willebrand Disease Type 2 and 3
Examinations (haematologically and periodontally) of von Willebrand disease patients with type 2 and 3 and healthy controls to evaluate whether type 2 and 3 VWD determines an increased susceptibility to gingival bleeding in response to the oral biofilm
Controls
For each case (VWD) a respective haematologically healthy control is recruited from the gingivitis and periodontitis patients of the Department of Periodontology, Centre for Dentistry and Oral Medicine (Carolinum), Johann Wolfgang Goethe-University Frankfurt/Main. Each control is matched to one of the respective cases for sex, age (±5 years), self-reported smoking status (current smoker/non-smoker), number of remaining teeth (±2 teeth), and periodontal diagnosis (gingivitis, chronic or aggressive periodontitis).

PRIMARY outcome

After 30 seconds bleeding on probing is scored at each site. The frequency of bleeding sites of the total number of assessed sites is calculated as index.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: cross-sectional: only one assessment at the time of examination

A periodontal probe is gently moved through the gingival sulcus. Bleeding is assessed at 6 sites per tooth (mesio-buccal, buccal, disto-buccal, disto-oral, oral, mesio-oral). The frequency of bleeding sites of the total number of assessed sites is calculated as index.
