The Effect of Weight Bearing on Patient Outcomes Following 1st MTP Joint Fusion
July 14, 2020 updated by: Mark Glazebrook, Nova Scotia Health Authority
Prospective, Randomized Trial to Evaluate the Effect of Weight Bearing on Patient Outcomes Following 1st MTP Joint Fusion
randomized-controlled trial looking specifically at the effect of weight bearing on the outcomes of first MTP joint fusions

Conditions
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
The objective of this prospective, randomized controlled trial is to determine if there are any adverse outcomes associated with immediate weight bearing as compared to non-weight bearing following first MTP joint fusion.
The primary outcome measures will look at patient reported outcomes of pain and function.
The secondary outcome measures will be the difference in the incidence of non-union, as well as adverse events/complications (malunion, wound complications, hardware complications, infection, stress fracture).
