Getting back on your feet again

If you’ve already tried medications, physical therapy, orthotics or other “conservative care” treatments and you’re still not getting relief, call to find out about the clinical research study for a new investigational device that may be of benefit to you.

Chances are, getting back on your feet could require a surgical fusion procedure. New materials, such as Augment™ Injectable Bone Graft may offer options.

Augment Injectable is a combination of a protein that is found naturally in your body and a synthetic bone material, both of which have been previously approved by the FDA. This product is intended to promote new bone formation and enhance healing at the affected area in your ankle or hindfoot. Traditionally, a second surgery is required to harvest bone from your own body (usually from your leg or hip) to stimulate healing. Thus Augment™ Injectable may provide an alternative that would eliminate the pain and problems associated with a second surgery.
