Interventions
Subtalar (Talocalcaneal) arthrodesis with a novel sustained dynamic compression intramedullary nail
Utilization of a novel sustained dynamic compression pseudoelastic intramedullary nail
Eligibility Criteria
Patients will be identified in the clinic by an attending orthopaedic foot and ankle surgeon or his physician assistant based on clinical exam and radiographic findings. Patients will be screened for eligibility by the research coordinator/ key personnel in close coordination with the surgeon. Patients at institute with end-stage talocalcaneal (subtalar) joint arthritis from any etiology will be eligible to enroll in the study. Frequently, subtalar arthritis is caused by trauma. Traumatic injuries have no predilection for race, religion, cultural background, etc. Therefore, all demographic groups will have access to this study and should be represented. Approximately 60 patients will be recruited for the study.
You may qualify if:
- End-stage talocalcaneal (subtalar) joint arthritis from any etiology will be eligible to enroll in the study
- Meets indications for subtalar arthrodesis to receive the DynaNail Mini implant
- Able to understand the requirements of the study, provide a written consent, and willing to comply with the study protocol
- years of age or older
You may not qualify if:
- Investigator determines that the subject is unlikely to comply with the requirements of the study
- Non-English speaker
- Blind
- Illiterate
- Prisoner
- Pregnant women
