Diabetic Fibular Nail Study
Our null hypothesis is that fibular intramedullary fixation (IMFN) does not impact complication rates when compared to standard of care treatment with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF).

Fracture Fixation, Internal
A Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Biologic Hollow Bone Screws
Traditional fracture fixation devices can cause corrosion, allergies, and stress shielding effects. They often require removal after healing, risking secondary damage.

Outcome of Rehabilitation Following Internally Fixed Ankle Fractures
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of variations in practice, ranging from early functional rehabilitation to complete immobilsation in post operative patients with ankle fixation following fractures.

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.
