Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Radiographic Assessment of Healing
Bone healing was assessed on x-rays and/or CT scan.
The time frame for healing determination was not pre-specified. Patients were evaluated at regular doctors' visits for up to 12 months. The physician determined the time point at which healing occurred for each patient at their regular visits.
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Quality of Life Assessment
The quality of life assessment was to be completed at the regular doctor's visit at which the physician determined the patient to be healed. No quality of life data was collected.
Study Arms (1)
Stimulation Group
All patients will receive either the Biomet® EBI Bone Healing System, Biomet OrthoPak® Non-invasive Bone Growth Stimulator System or Biomet SpinalPak® Non-Invasive Spine Fusion Stimulator Systems.
Interventions
A pulsed electromagnetic fields electrical stimulation device used for the treatment of fracture nonunions. Designed to be used for 3-10 hours per day with a recommended use of 10 hours per day.
A capacitive coupling electrical stimulation device used for the treatment of fracture nonunions. Designed to be used for 24 hours per day.
A capacitive coupling electrical stimulation device used as an adjunctive treatment to lumbar spinal fusion. Designed to be used for 24 hours per day.
Eligibility Criteria
This clinical registry will be a prospective, multi-center study. Subjects will undergo treatment with Biomet's BHS or OrthoPak devices for non-spinal applications. Subjects will undergo treatment with Biomet's SpinalPak for spinal applications
You may qualify if:
- Subject has agreed to undergo electrical stimulation therapy as prescribed by their physician.
- Subject has agreed to return to the physician for their physician required follow up visits.
- Subject will undergo treatment with Biomet's BHS, OrthoPak or SpinalPak devices.
- Subject has agreed to complete QoL questionnaires prior to starting treatment and at the follow up visit when the physician has determined the subject to be either healed or failed.
You may not qualify if:
- Any subject not willing to comply with the physician prescribed treatment program and follow up visit schedule.
- Any subject not willing to complete the QoL questionnaires.
