About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Ankle Deformity focused on measuring Arthrodesis

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 80 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient with prescribed standard of care unilateral hindfoot ankle arthrodesis procedure
  • Age 18-80
  • Willing to complete all follow up evaluations

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Prior infection at site of planned arthrodesis
  • Prior arthrodesis procedure
  • Inability to maintain non-weight bearing status
  • Bone defect requiring more than 10 cc of bone graft material
  • Known Vitamin D deficiency with a Vitamin D level of <30ng/ml 1 week prior to surgery
  • Inadequate bone stock to allow for rigid internal fixation
  • Hemoglobin A1C greater than 8.0%
  • Tobacco or Nicotine use 6 weeks prior to surgery
  • BMI greater than 40

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

ViviGen Cellular Bone Matrix

Arm Description

Patients will receive the vivigen cellular bone matrix

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Fusion
Radiographic evidence of successful arthrodesis confirmed on Computed Tomography (CT) scan defined by >50%

Secondary Outcome Measures

Failure of hardware or obvious non-union
Failure measured through clinical and radiographic evidence
Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM)
Patient reported outcome measurement that includes 29-item questionnaire divided into two subscales: 21-item activities of daily living subscale and 8-item sports subscale. Response options are given in 5 point Likert scales (range from 4-0)
Vitamin D levels
25-Hydroxyvitamin D2 and D3 Blood test
Visual Analog Pain Scale
Patient Foot pain reported on a 10 Centimeter line. Patient is asked to draw a vertical line where they believe their pain falls at rest and when active. This is on a scale of 0-10 with 0 being no pain and 10 being the most pain.
American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society(AOFAS) hindfoot score
Patient reported outcome for a standardized evaluation of clinical status of ankle- hindfoot. Patient reports their pain and the physician records physical assessment of alignment. Finally function is reported and the AOFAS score ranged from 0-100 with 100 being healthy ankles.
VR-12 (Veterans RAND 12)
Patient reported outcome for health related quality of life using a 12 item questionnaire. This is broken into two scores: Physical Health component scores, and Mental Health component scores.
Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Physical Function-Short Form 8b (PROMIS Item Bank v2.0-Physical Function -Short Form 8b)
Patient self-reported capability for physical function using 8 questions to assess current function of an adult in the general population.
