简要总结

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of PEMF in surgical reconstruction of 5th metatarsal non-union fractures.

详细描述

The investigators hypothesize:

  1. That treatment of 5th metatarsal non-union fracture with PEMF will achieve earlier resolution and/or higher success compared to surgery alone of 5th metatarsal non-union fractures.
  2. PEMF will stimulate increased expression of critical growth factors (i.e. BMP-2, BMP-4, BMP-7 as well as TGFb, IGF-1, FGF-2 and VEGF) at the non-union site to facilitate osseous healing of 5th metatarsal non-union fractures.

入选标准

  • Subject has been diagnosed with a 5th metatarsal delayed or non-union.
  • Subjects with duration of a 5th metatarsal fracture for a minimum of 3 months.
  • Male or female between ages of 18 and 75 years old, inclusive

  • If female, subject is pregnant, plans on becoming pregnant during the duration of this clinical outcomes collection study or lactating.
  • Subject has an implanted unipolar pacemaker.
  • Subjects who have previous malignant or connective tissue disorder.
  • Subjects who use medication such as steroids or anticoagulants.
  • Subjects who have an underlying osseous infection (Osteomyelitis) and/or open wound.

结局指标

主要结局

Percentage of Successful 5th Metatarsal Unions Achieved.

时间窗: 24 Weeks

Each patient was assessed radiographically at 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 weeks or until radiographic signs of healing were evident. The radiographs were evaluated and graded by the number of cortices (medial and lateral on anteroposterior views as well as dorsal and plantar on lateral views) of healing at each time point. Bridging callus across 4 cortices on postoperative radiographs was used to determine healing.

次要结局

  • Mean AOFAS Score (% Change From Baseline), Foot Function Index (% Change From Baseline), SF-36 Health Survey (Change From Baseline)(24 Weeks)
