Orthopedic Disorder, Trauma
An Imaging Framework for Clinically Testing New Treatments to Prevent Post-traumatic OA
The immediate goal of the proposed research is to test the value of a new low-cost, low-dose standing CT system for efficient early detection of both joint degeneration and elevated contact stress.
- Conditions
- Orthopedic Disorder, Trauma, Ankle Fractures, Post-traumatic Osteoarthritis
- Trial name
- NCT03809520

Ankle Fractures, Post-traumatic Osteoarthritis
Iterative Design of Custom Dynamic Orthoses to Reduce Articular Contact Stress
The proposed study evaluates the effect of carbon fiber brace design on forces across the ankle joint. Research suggests that ankle arthritis develops after ankle fracture, in part, due to elevated forces on the cartilage.
- Conditions
- Ankle Fractures, Post-traumatic Osteoarthritis, Osteoarthritis Ankle

- PRMRP-FPA2 (NCT04562896)
- Testing
- Custom Carbon Fiber Dynamic Orthosis (CDO)
